Night at the Museum

Easily one of Shawn Levy's best. He has those magical one-off projects that bring so much to the 'diorama'. I can't believe this is from 2006 either. The vfx/sfx as well as the comedy, all hold up like a timeless relic. The practical work feels lost to modern standards. So do the ideas. An Egyptian Pharaoh, with a British accent, because he was last kept at Oxford Uni, has an 'alien' like tablet that works on the sun-moon rotation. It's such a smart excuse to mix education with entertainment. There's so much wholesomeness within the cast/characters/story, it makes my wax melt. One of my all-time comfort movies, like most movies Robin Williams is in.

In my humble opinion, this movie is a childhood classic. It’s engraved into my mind “dumb dumb give me gum gum”

Foo wants Gum-Gum🗿

Pure brilliance also love Dick Van Dyke and Robin Williams.
