"Addams Family Values" accomplishes what "The Godfather, Part II" did: it equals, if not outdoes, the original. In this case, Morticia (Anjelica Huston) has a baby - whom they name Pubert (you read that right), Fester (Christopher Lloyd) marries nanny Debbie Jellinsky (Joan Cusack) and Gomez (Raul Julia) decides that Wednesday and Pugsley should spend the summer at a camp. The best parts of the movie are the scenes at the camp. Run by airheads Gary (Peter MacNicol) and Becky Granger (Christine Baranski), the whole camp is an excuse for airhead rich white kids to act nice to each other and perform a play about the original Thanksgiving. If there are any ethnic people...well, they can be dealt with. But that's all going to change now that Wednesday and Pugsley have arrived. Anyway, "Addams Family Values" is a movie that everyone should see. I certainly recommend it to everyone. You just never stop laughing, especially when you hear what Fester says after Debbie gives him a present.

Addams Family Values is a very poor movie with a brutally paced plot and a few talented cast members that could have done so much netter. The actors do their very best, with Angelica Huston, Raul Julia, Christopher Lloyd and Christina Ricci still shining in their respective roles, however, they were not enough to save this movie, which tries to hard to stand out from the first Addams family that it forgets to even tell a story. A lot of comments are far too much for a younger audience, such as Wednesday mentioning that her parents have had intercourse, or the antagonist's torture chamber, it is far too frightening for the films target audience. On the other hand, the humour is also too childish for the most part, such as the Addams new baby causing havoc and the entire camping plot, leaving nothing for adults to have a chuckle at. Loud, obnoxious and not funny, Addams Family Values is too childish for adults, and too adult for kids, better off avoiding this. The family must rescue their uncle from a new love. Best Performance: Raul Julia / Worst Performance: Joan Cusack

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.

This movie is a quit nice comedy but the reason I realy like it is the portrayal of Wednesday Addams by Christina Ricci.The Addams are usualy seen as a foolish monster-like family.Here Wednesday is seen as melancholyc teenager,inteligent,dark,cynic,sadistic and possibly murderous.She makes fools out of everybody else.She would make an excelent horror movie star.She also makes some points.She turns a dull theatrical Thanks-giving play portraying the indians as barbarians,inferior to the British settlers into a protest on behalf of the indians as well as a way to avenge herself from what she went through in the hands of stupid campers.She turned the camps loosers into a fighting squad.Forget about the rest of the Addams,Michael Myers,Jason Voorhees and Freddy Krueger.Wednesday brings the darkness.Bloody good for a comedy.

A gold digger comes after Festor and she pretends to be a nanny while she seduces Festor. There's a new baby in the house now named Pubert and the older kids are trying to kill him, so the nanny suggests they get sent to summer camp. At summer camp the kids learn of the wedding between this mysterious nanny and uncle Festor and they insist on getting home to stop it, but it is too late as the nanny has married Festor and made him promise to no longer associate with the rest of the clan. She tries to kill him to get the inheritance, the kids have to suffer the annoying camp counselors and other children and granny, Morticia and Gomez have to deal with the curse on their new born. Yea my description sucks but I hate trying to explain how bad movies are. This movie was the same boring type of plot as the first one. It offered nothing new and although it had a few laughs it was still worse than the original. Sonnefeld's direction was even lazier and the music was worse. They tried the TV theme song and kept playing it in different musical styles. The "cool" song they picked to promote the movie was by rap group Tag Team doing basically "Whoop, There It Is" and adding lyrics about the Addams family, how boring is that...rap songs are always flavors of the week and will never be popular as little as a year in the future. Too bad they dropped out with the Michael Jackson song. The old cast is back, the grandma has been replaced with the wonderful Carol Kane and she does such a better job. Joan Cusack plays the nanny and once again Christinna Ricci is the star of the film, with her brilliant sarcastic lines. Raul Julia, Angelica Houston and Christopher Lloyd did exactly as they did before, but there was more screen time for Morticia and Gomez. I was always most fond of Lurch but neither of these movies focused on him at all. The counselors did a great job too, very funny. Also some great cameos by people like Peter Graves and Nathan Lane. Perhaps kids might like it, but movies like this are just a waste of time to me, although they have fans and a following, they just lack comedy and can't handle the test of time 1/10 stars.

I absolutely loved the first movie. I bought this two days ago, and I was really impressed, because this is a really funny movie. it is possibly better than the first but only just. If there are any flaws, they are minor, but why is the rating for this movie so low? 6.2? It is much better than that! I can name other great movies that have fallen victim to low ratings. The humour was wonderful. Black humour suits the Addams Family perfectly. As for the acting, it was superb. Christina Ricci tops them all as Wednesday, but that doesn't mean that the others weren't good either. Raul Julia and Angelica Huston are note perfect as Gomez and Morticia. To be honest, I think that Gomez is Julia's best role. Christopher Lloyd was born to play Fester, just as entertaining as he was in Back To The Future and Who Framed Roger Rabbit? Jimmy Workman was also really good, and the underrated actress Joan Cusack took me completely by surprise as Debbie. That baby was cute too. If there was one minor flaw, it would be that you don't see much of Cousin It and Margaret. As I'm probably not able to write a review for the first film, what I've said for this film, applies pretty much also for that too. I give this a 9/10, same with the first, but avoid the New Addams Family and unless you're a Tim Curry fan, avoid Addams Family Reunion also. 9/10. Bethany Cox

ADDAMS FAMILY VALUES is a rare gem of a sequel that surpasses its original in every way possible. The original ADDAMS FAMILY movie had a horribly thin plot and stupid one-liners...but who cared...it had stunning cinematography and and set design! Well, the sequel is less showy with its art direction and focuses more on making us laugh. The screenplay was written by Paul Rudnick, who is the Messiah of One-liners. His script has a wickedly dark sense of humor thats just irresistible. Angelica Huston and Raul Julia are more sensual than ever. Christina Ricci is superb as Wednesday; she brings the perfect sense of melancholy and dryness to her character. My favorite performace though was Joan Cusack, as the diabolical nanny Debbie. She is just a blast to watch as a gold-digging psycho killer who wants Uncle Fester's money. I loved how this movie satirizes the white upper class, which is a perfect contrast to the Addamses themselves. This is one hilarious movie.

She's a pleasant young woman who always dresses in light colors and has a demeanor that would win you over. That is, until you find out that she's been responsible for the deaths of several other people and is after your fortune like her life depends on it. This is Debbie Jelinsky, and her life story reads like something out of "East of Eden" in which the main heroine did some unspeakable things to everyone who came in touch with her, including and beginning with her parents. She's been assigned to take care of the Addams children because as of late they've taken a homicidal interest in their youngest brother Pubert and no other nanny seems able to handle their recklessness. Of course, no one realizes that she's after Uncle Fester and his money, and in the Addams' world, watching television is not a priority, because had they tuned in to watch "American's Most Disgusting Criminals", they would have found quite a lot about her. ADDAMS FAMILY VALUES is one of those rare sequels that while being practically the same movie (with a plot revolving around Uncle Fester and his fortune which could, under the wrong hands, affect the entire Addams family), redone with a different villainess, is actually better than the original. The tone is much darker still: Wednesday's sadistic side, subdued in the first film, comes full bloom like her own entrance into young womanhood, and Joan Cusack, while looking quite a lot like Marilyn Munster from the rival series "The Munsters", is by far the ugliest character in the story. Had this been a mainstream drama or suspense thriller her black widow tendencies would have been a little much to bear, but Cusack plays her villainy to the hilt and overshadows Anjelica Huston and Raul Julia who are even better and make one of the screen's best romantic couples of all time (despite their dark makeup). The last adaptation made for the big screen, Charles Addams' characters would move to the small screen in a new version of the 1960s show and a TV movie, neither very successful.
