  For me this sequel didn't quite hit the mark and I just can't pin point why to be honest. All the cast return so continuity is fine accept for the character of 'Granny' and this time the family have a two new members in the form of 'Baby Pubert' and 'Debbie' the psychopathic widow who goes from one man to the next. I didn't really like the story choice for this film as it centres on 'Fester' again just like the first, maybe they could of used another character or a couple together perhaps, I also never really liked the baby premise as it tends to lean to much towards childish slapstick. The plot line about the black widow 'Debbie Jellinsky' wasn't too bad and did recover some more dark undertones but I think it should of been used with 'Gomez' maybe, plus I didn't really like Joan Cusack's performance at the time, its grown on me since. I also never liked how the continuity of the film changed so much from the first (cast aside). Mainly the Mansion is in a different location, it looks different on the outside and the interior is vastly different. Some people won't care I know but things like that I notice and they annoy me, it doesn't make sense! why couldn't they keep it at least remotely the same?. Unfortunately that's what we got, a lot of silly childish slapstick and baby humour all centered around 'Pubert', yes it was still ghoulish and macabre but it really stooped for the kids. Things got better with 'Pugsley' and 'Wednesday' at their summer camp which introduced us to the allergic Jewish boy 'Joel Glicker' played wonderfully by David Krumholtz. The whole sub plot here was really quite funny and more devilish with the sinister camp leaders played eerily by Peter MacNicol and Christine Baranski with their 'harmony hut' torture hehe its a shame the whole film couldn't keep this tone of black humour throughout. Again the film does look lovely in terms of costume and sets with more natty quirky visual effects and bizarre camera angles which add to the kookyness. I think this film just went that touch over the top, just a hint off the wall which made it feel a bit too much like a live action cartoon at times. At least the franchises posters still looked really sweet.

  Pretty good sequel to The Addams Family, the cast from the first film come back for more horrifying comedic fun. Although less memorable than the first film, the filmmakers craft a funnier film than the first. However I much preferred the original. With this entry, director Barry Sonnenfeld keeps a fine mix of humor and horror as the cast go through the zany material effortlessly. Enjoyable for a good time, and if you loved the first, then you're sure to like this one. I thought that the cast did a fine job here, and I thought each brought something new to the roles that made them unique from the first flick. I think it was sad though that it was one of Raoul Julia's last performances, and at least he went out with a bang as Gomez Addams. He really made the character his own in this sequel, and overall it's a fine tribute to a terrific actor who was a perfectionist of his craft, and the result shows on-screen. The Addams Family values delivers all the dark humor overtones you'd expect from the first, and though it's less perfect than the first, it still delivers great entertainment. Despite its flaws, the filmmakers still manage to overcome its imperfections and manage to make a film that is a good second and is a sequel that still plenty of effective gags and ideas to make it worthwhile. The Addams Family Values is demented good fun and succeeds at exploring new territory to keep the viewer interested. Where many sequels have failed, this film succeeds and is a must see for fans of the first.

  One of the rare cases of the sequel easily topping the original film. With all characters of the insanely morbid family already established the film simply has fun going from there, throwing out one gag after another. As Fester is meeting the woman of his dreams, the kids are sent to summer camp, where they have to deal with blond bimbos and hippies. That culminates in the most hilarious deconstruction of a thanksgiving play ever put on film. The mean-spirited, disrespectful and deeply black sense of humor is refreshing, considering the majority of stinkers the 90s brought us in the comedy genre. Sure, this doesn't have much of a plot, but the characters and jokes make for very entertaining 90 minutes. Especially Christina Ricci's Wednesday is absolutely hilarious.

  <b><i>"Marvelous news, I'm going to have a baby.....right now!"</i></b></p> This was definitely funnier than the first one. So many hilarious dialogues that made me laugh. And I love Wednesday Addams (Christina Ricci). She was the best one in this movie. I love her blank look. And also the way she talks. It was very mature for her age. I love this weird family. Actually, I think they were the sane ones if I compare them with the camp people. And the baby looked pretty unnatural. At first I thought it was a plastic robot baby (lol). I really recommend this to watch. You'll have a great time if you watch this. At least I did. <a href="http://s1039.photobucket.com/albums/a471/3niR/?action=view&current=addams.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1039.photobucket.com/albums/a471/3niR/addams.jpg" border="0" alt="Addams Family"></a>

  The sequel is slightly better than the first, but only just. This one is certainly funnier.

  I loved the first installment of this series and I am sure there would have been more had Raul Julia not died. This time around we get Joan Cusack thrown into the mix and she does a great job. This movie and the first pay true homage to the series.

  me likey, bigtime

  Better than the first movie. I loved the little baby. Joan Cusack's plot to woo Fester's love was a great one. Wednesday and Pugsley made the movie for me, with their attempts to hurt the new baby and their rebellious behaviour when they get sent to summer camp.

  I just smashed my thumb in the door. This is my reward for hanging out my wet clothes on the clothesline so late at night. The blood is swelling. An elliptical reddish blister is forming underneath the nail. The thumb feels like it's a float for the Thanksgiving Day parade. Social evolutionism is a lie. At least, it feels like a seethingly remarkable joke sometimes, as clueless as everybody usually is. The geography of society feels like a series of plateaus, disconnected, and I seriously question whether there is any ascension whatsoever that goes on. For four (of five) years in college I pretended that I was okay with my surroundings and simply let various crap hit various fans and held out my umbrella. I 'adapted' insofar as I greeted college life with a head full of apathy and a mug full of beer (social progress doesn't count if everybody's drunk). My non-active approach transformed into a dangerous digression when I finally realized that I'd been suckered. So, I mutated. I became my own alternate evolution. I goodbye'd and good riddance'd the remaining suckers and their plateaus and haven't turned back since. Except, when I have to confront these suckers again. I met up with friends tonight I hadn't seen in a while. They were late. I enjoyed a pint and played checkers with myself for nigh thirty minutes until they showed. I won. Both times. I quickly wondered why I ever let them in on the checkers. One guy called me an "Emo kid," because of my rings and bracelets and longer hair. Heh. Something about preposterous labels for things we clearly don't know much about. Veiled in seethingly remarkable humor, of course. The 'hang out' degenerated to a point where we were discussing horrible hand injuries about us and people we know (it's amazing I didn't sense the foreboding, especially in my thumb), stories that usually make me grimace, but with each blow of shuddering repulsion, I rolled off the "eww" and wanted more. The fascination of grossness seized me. I was starving for something from these jokers, and the odyssey of female conquests they were spewing just wasn't cutting it. It's the same damn story on skip, transitioned with that high-five kind of laughter. Family, however, is a far greater threat to your being. I think family is designed to hasten your self-destruction. The social implications family represents to your island of social sanity is Krakatoa-esque. Man, they can be a bear. So, my brother accused me of being gay. Joking, of course, but sort of not. Because I live in San Francisco & that I haven't had any sort of girlfriend in...hmm. Long time. (something my Mom loves to interrogate me about every chance she gets) The only way to get that 5% suspicion of gayness off your mind is to deliver a seethingly remarkable gay joke to your brother and 'casually' study the reaction. I guess preferring lonesomeness is too radical to accept for some. The simplest of phrases can totally undermine the concept of communication, too, when these simplest of phrases are scrutinized for hidden meanings that don't even exist. Navigating the presumption that people have about things is worse than popping blisters. And far more annoying. Seriously, the pretext is staggering. So totally avoiding any message spoken and launching ad hominem missiles at the messenger. Sandcastle conversations in a high tide of complete nonsense. I can get nowhere sometimes, and find myself participating in the verbal cream pie-a-thon. Bah. I love my family, but I don't know why sometimes. :p I've decided I'm going to fly somewhere cool this weekend. I'm ready to kick up my horse and gallop off to somewhere far away. I liked my last trip so much that I shall take another and make-believe that it will be as good. My options are, for all intents & purposes, limitless. But to keep things sane (a rarity for me, I know), I've narrowed it down to 2 locations: [b]Toronto[/b] and [b]New York[/b]. So, where should I go? Your call, loyal subjects of the Kingdom of Neum. I've never been to Toronto, and I've been itching for a show on Broadway in NYC. I've heard stuff about "Wicked." No, I don't have friends in either city. Hotels. Your job: Vote. [b]Toronto[/b] or [b]New York[/b]. I will decide by Wednesday evening. And, by then, I will be able to use my thumb again. EDIT: Hee! Happy 4th of July! *lights firework in sister's room*
