Night at the Museum – the Smithsonian Battle

9th Jun 2009 by Chris

Yester day was a special day for me and my honey. We’ve just celebrated another month of a happy and fulfilling relationship. We decided to go out on a movie date out that night after work. Since we watched Drag me to Hell a weekend earlier, he wanted us to watch something funny.

I’m also a fan of comedic movies. After all, I like Robin Williams, Adam Sandler, Will Ferrell and even Ben Stiller himself! Back at the time of 1995, I really fell in love with a wonderful adventure movie entitled “Jumanji“. I remember waiting all day beside the radio to join contests just to win an original copy of “Jumanji“. Til now, I don’t have my own copy yet (I just keep forgetting whenever I’m out to buy DVDs at the mall). I really like adventure movies that are usually feel good movies that have a soft, yet morally touching endings. The almost similar theme of Zathura (2005) was also good. I remember that beautiful twist about loving your own brother.. it was a good one.

These adventure/comedy/feel-good movies are really one of the lightest, easiest movies to watch. It always kind of makes their audience feel better in the end. National Treasure, Tomb Raider, and even the Journey to the Center of the Earth were all beautiful adventure movies. The only difference between Jumanji/Zathura and National Treasure/Journey kind of adventure movies is that the former doesn’t involve too much travelling. Its just like this movie: The night of the museum. more…
