Nachts im Museum - Kahmunrah kehrt zurück

I have not seen the past 3 Night of the Museum movies in a while, but I do remember them being good movies and having some fun with them. Night at the Museum: Kahmunrah Rises Again (2022) is the 4th movie in this series, and I thought it was just ok.

The animation in the movie is not that bad, and it looks nice. The voice acting is fine, and the characters are the same as the other movies, just with standard personalities that are there to move the average plot along.

The main villain is the same as the earlier movies but not interesting. The movie is kid friendly and keeps things safe without doing something different and interesting like the other 3 movies.

Kids will like Night at the Museum: Kahmunrah Rises Again (2022) for the animation and the characters in the movie that connect to the other movies. I thought this movie was ok but anything outstanding or worth giving yourself time to see.

Let me begin by saying that this film has a great storyline with tremendous potential, but unfortunately, the filmmakers seem to have targeted an age group between 3-5 year-old. It is not a film that a 9-year-old child would truly enjoy.

It was nice to see the beautiful values portrayed in the film, such as friendship, selflessness, and a strong sense of bonding that closely resembles a family bond. However, it would have been better to also include some humor. The film was overly formulaic and lacked originality.

I watched this film with my children, and the part that made us laugh the most was the character of the God of Chaos. He was the most comedic element in the film.

This film can be described as an episode within a series of children's shows, and nothing more. But to be a standalone film, I don't think it succeeded. We didn't get to know the characters well, and there weren't strong enough motivations to connect the audience with them.

In summary, I believe this film was simply a filler for commercial purposes. However, the worst part was the exploitation of the "Night at the Museum" name.

I hate to give a great Animated movie like this a low score, but in the end it was the story that forced my hand. So let's give points where points are due. The Animation is GREAT! The acting was wonderful! But the plot was just awful. Look, I get that it's a movie directed at kids and what not, and no, I'm not being too picky, the story just kinda falls apart towards the end of the movie. I felt like the writers got lazy towards the end. It's their laziness that prevents me for giving this movie a much more higher star count. But in the same time I admire them for trying. Seriously, it's not every day you see a great Animated movie, and a 2D animated movie to boot! I reward this movie 5 stars for the spot on Animation but only 1 star for the lazy writing. 5 minus 1= 4 stars, that's my final ruling on this beautiful film; take it or leave it.

Night at the Museum: Kahmunrah Rises Again, the animated sequel in the beloved franchise, successfully captures the whimsical spirit and adventurous heart of its predecessors while introducing a new generation to the magic of museum exhibits coming to life after dark. Directed by Matt Danner and Justin Lovell, the film centers on Nick Daley, Larry's teenage son, as he takes on the night watchman duties and inevitably faces a resurrected Kahmunrah, the nefarious older brother of Ahkmenrah. The animation style is bright and engaging, bringing a fresh visual energy to familiar characters and introducing a host of new, historically significant figures to the after-hours chaos.

The film smartly balances nostalgia with new elements. Beloved characters like Jedediah, Octavius, and Theodore Roosevelt return, offering their signature humor and camaraderie, while new additions like Joan of Arc and Harriet Tubman inject fresh perspectives and opportunities for engaging historical interactions. The plot, while following a familiar structure of Kahmunrah seeking world domination, introduces enough new twists and challenges to keep audiences entertained. The humor is geared towards a younger audience but still retains the witty charm that appealed to fans of the live-action films, making it an enjoyable watch for the whole family.

Joshua Bassett voices Nick with a relatable blend of teenage apprehension and burgeoning heroism, stepping into the night watchman role with a desire to prove himself. Joseph Kamal brings a suitably menacing yet slightly theatrical flair to Kahmunrah, making him a compelling antagonist for this new adventure. The animation allows for more fantastical scenarios and imaginative set pieces, expanding the possibilities of what can come to life within the museum walls.

Night at the Museum: Kahmunrah Rises Again is a worthy successor to the franchise, offering a fun and engaging animated adventure that captures the magic and humor of the original films. It successfully introduces a new protagonist and exciting historical figures while staying true to the core concept of museum exhibits coming to life at night. With its bright animation, engaging storyline, and strong voice cast, it's a delightful family film that proves the adventures within the museum walls are far from over, promising more historical hijinks for a new generation of fans.

What is going on with Disney lately that their sequels to well-liked and respected franchises seem to have no effort put into them?

Willow and National Treasure we're so painful to watch that I couldn't get through the first episodes, and now Night at the Museum has a similar effect, forcing me to turn it off barely ten minutes into the movie.

It doesn't fit into the continuity of the three films, and all the characters are either stupid or mean spirited for some reason.

The way they get Larry's son to be the new night watchman is beyond lazy and uninspired, and essentially makes is hate all of the characters that we know and love.

I think this is the last straw for Disney plus and it's time to unsubscribe.
