Genre: Comedy
Synopsis: Good-hearted dreamer Larry Daley (Ben Stiller), despite being
perpetually down on his luck,
thinks he’s destined for something big. But even he could never have imagined
how “big,” when he
accepts what appears to be a menial job as a graveyard-shift night watchman
at a museum of natural history.
But during Larry’s watch, something extraordinary happens: the museum’s exhibits
magically come to life.
A fearsome T-Rex insists on a game of fetch (with one of his own skeleton bones);
Mayans, Roman Gladiators,
and cowboys emerge from their diorama to wage epic battles; and a wax figure
of Teddy Roosevelt gives
Larry important advice while harboring a crush for an Indian princess. As things
spiral wildly out of control,
Larry must find a way to control the magic to stop a nefarious plot and save
the museum.
