Reviews
Plantiana Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.
Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.
Anoushka Slater While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
elainehowie I really liked the first film, but I think this one is even better. It's much more entertaining and more funny than the first, especially all the camp scenes. I think anyone can watch it, even if they haven't seen the first film as this one is much better.
jacobjohntaylor1 This movie is awful. The Addams family (1991) was awful. And this is ever worst. I do not why people like it. It is not funny. It is not a 6.6. It is a 3. The story line is awful. It is not funny, It is sick and awful, The ending is awful. It this has to be one of the worst comedy movies ever. I think comedy is just to easy an more. Was ever hard to do not know?. But people like laughing so mush that no one has work hard at it any more. No one ever says stop you have gone to fare. They just laugh. I can not laugh at something that is not funny. I can not laugh at something that is sick. Who ever wrote this has no talent.
sol- Envious of their parents' newborn baby, the Addams children repeatedly try to kill it before being sent away to summer camp by their scheming new nanny in this sequel to 'The Addams Family'. Often cited as superior to its predecessor, 'Addams Family Values' benefits from delving into the plot quicker with less time spent introducing the characters. What really raises the quality of the film though is the focus on Christina Ricci as Wednesday Addams, who receives the most screen time here after Christopher Lloyd. Her deadpan line delivery and emotionless facial reactions are better than ever, and a bit where she slowly forces a smile after being forced to watch Disney films is a real testament to her talents. Another big plus is Joan Cusack's ever-so-slightly demented performance as the nanny who seduces Lloyd for his money; her repeated failed attempts to kill him are even funnier than the kids failing to kill the baby early on. Witty and funny as the script often is though, the screenplay is not airtight; the transition between the film being about the children trying to kill the baby and the nanny trying to fleece their uncle is quite jarring. The experiences of Ricci at camp - where she encounters the same Girl Scout who tried to sell her cookies in the first film - are also far more interesting than Lloyd and Cusack having it out. This is an enjoyable film through and through, however, with all concerned really in top form. Whether this is truly superior to the first film may be debatable, but it is certainly a very good effort as far as sequels tend to go.
slightlymad22 After "The Addams Family" made so much money a sequel was inevitable. And I actually enjoy this one a lot more than the first. I found the first movie perfectly cast, but a missed opportunity, as I didn't find it a good or even enjoyable movie. Plot In A Paragraph: Pugsley and Wednesday Addams aren't very happy with the new addition to the family: their new baby brother, Pubert. The new nanny Debbie charms the family, especially Uncle Fester, who is head-over-heels for her. However, Wednesday and Pugsley see through her. Debbie is only after Fester for his money. Before they can inform their parents on her, she has the kids sent off to summer camp. Despite great turns by Peter MacNichol and Christine Baranski in supporting roles, not to mention a memorable performance by Joan Cusack and her cleavage. It's Christina Ricci that steals this movie. Her delivery is superb and she had me laughing out loud more than once.
