Through the animation language The Addams Family, re-enacts the avatars of this peculiar family, bringing the characteristic characters closer to new generations of children, who are surely unaware of the previous versions.

Every attempt to inject a little Addams in our lives should be rewarded.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 12, 2022

The Addams Family is a fun, charming reboot that stays true to the series while also lacking "that special something."

Full Review | Nov 2, 2021

The whole possesses a bit of a randomness filling the thin plot with comedic set-pieces, but none goes against the message of inclusion to render any moments out-of-place.

...modestly grim and surprisingly sweet...

Full Review | Original Score: 16/20 | Apr 2, 2021

The wisdom comes from the children, and the story that emerges feels pure and sweet.

We are left with a decent cutesy film that expands the Addams' universe, but does little to help it progress towards something greater or new.

As was proven by the 1992-93 cartoon series, animation is the perfect medium for this creepy, kooky family, allowing more outlandish escapades

The CG animation is nothing particularly remarkable but at least the movie does faithfully retain its macabre visuals and even getting the original characters design right.

I think this franchise has finally reached its expiration date.

This origin casts the Addams family as an immigrant story, and the film leans so hard into the theme of accepting those different from us and valuing diversity over conformity,

One of those properties that works no matter the format whether a series movie or its latest iteration, a stop-motion animated movie, that's worthy of two snaps up.

...The film's simplistic and episodic plot put a major dampener on what could have been a welcome breath of fresh air for family animation.

While The Addams Family isn't super amazing, it's a good and fun film for this Halloween season.

Despite the problems, I found The Addams Family to be refreshing.

Full Review | Original Score: Big Screen Watch | Jan 10, 2020

It has monsters doing/saying weird things and humans acting like huge jerks but when that's all you've got for 87 minutes, the novelty quickly wears thin.

Full Review | Original Score: C | Jan 2, 2020

The animation is sharp, right down to Lurch's fingernails. The music is well-placed. The famous theme song pops up now and then but is not overdone.

Full Review | Dec 24, 2019

All the casting here, like the film itself, feels too marketing driven, and the latter is obviously an excuse for a bad hip-hop remix of the classic TV show theme song.

Full Review | Dec 19, 2019

This 2019 CGI remake misses the mark in the most crucial element of what has sustained The Addams Family all this time - its offbeat, macabre vibe. If you don't get that, you're really not going to get any of it.

...it's sweet anyway, and like it or not, a sequel is a spookily sure thing.
