Larry, on the verge of eviction, lands the night watchman position at the desolate Museum of Natural History. Larry promises Nicky he's meant for better things, to which his kid retorts with a harsh "What if you're wrong? You're just an ordinary guy. It doesn't help that his failures are matched up against the success of his ex-wife's go-getting bond trader beau (Paul Rudd) whose career young Nicky now wants to emulate. The constant instability in Larry's life makes his ex-wife (Kim Raver) question whether he's responsible enough to care for their son, Nicky, of whom they share custody. His latest career flops came at a virtual reality driving range and with something he calls the snapper (think "the clapper"). Larry is a hapless dreamer who goes thru jobs like they were socks. Perpetual loser Larry Daley (Ben Stiller) is fast running out of career options when he lands a menial gig as night watchman for the New York Museum of Natural History, where history comes alive. Night at the Museum adapts Milan Trenc's fantastic children's book and tells the story of a dad down on his luck but trying to win favor with his son.
