I didn't find Night at the Museum too bad. The retired/fired security guard subplot was handled a bit weirdly and they went slightly overboard with the monkey peeing on Stiller, but other than that it was pretty good.

I really liked Madagascar and Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa. Especially King Julius (Sasha Baron Cohen automatically = teh win )
