Battle of the Smithsonian is one of those rare games that takes a movie – one that most couldn't imagine playing as a video game – and turns it into something that's lighthearted and fun. There are many surprises to uncover, and not just in the form of returning characters. As you'll soon discover, Larry Daley isn't the only one you'll control".
TGH Writes:
"Night At The Museum: Battle Of The Smithsonian (NATM2 for short) is based off the movie of the same name and takes a lot of great things from the movie and turns it over to the game. In the end the question has to be asked, is this a game for the hardcore gamer, or just one for the family/casual gamer looking for a fun time."
Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian, aimed to the youngest of the house, is a game for those who loved the film and for parents to enjoy along with their children. The game offers a simple diversion, educational and without much action, that follows the goal of entertaining without having the ambition of going for more. Sadly, Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian is another point for the argument that games based on films aren't the best choice for your catalog. At least the experience here is not frustrating, and is over in less than the time it takes to blink of an eye.

It uses many of the same characters and locations and many of the same story telling elements as the movie. Most games that are based off movies tend to fall short however. Will this be the same? I grabbed my keys and my flashlight and set off to find the answer."
