Atom User Reviews for The Addams Family
I expected more
I literally fell asleep.
They had a ton of material from the old show and movies they could of used. But instead they choose such a generic storyline, really disappointed with this.
Great movie enjoyed watching it and good animations but could be better if you liked Adam's family it adds a little twist witch is fun to watch I think
Kinda just wasn’t a huge fan of this movie. Few laughs here and there. But overall just felt kind of like a cash grab.
A really cute movie with a good storyline and message
Ok, storyline. Animation good, was entertaining, but not my favorite.
I enjoyed the movie because I have been watching the original as a kid. The animation was awesome and so was the storyline and message. For those who have never seen the original, they nailed the characters !
It had it's funny moments but not enough to keep me awake. I was continously falling asleep.
T-Mobile Tuesday deal but this movie has teachable moments 4 kids. I loved how the father who seat next to me was teaching his son parts of the movies (like when the girl was being bullied @ school & when the lady was sending out sending out fake messages 2 people about the Addams Family the father told his son she is starting rumors. I enjoyed the movie.
cute
bad storyline...
Has a great message behind it
Not very funny
Would have given more stars but Charlize Theron as Morticia trying to put on this weird voice was throwing me off. I love Charlize Theron I just think she was the wrong choice for the role.
It was awesome!
very different from the show
Not my favorite... I am glad I had a coupon from Tmobile for this. The girls liked it though but it wasn't all that in my opinion.
Good old Addams family, love the hidden message and love the references 😊 I love the Addams Family since I was little, and not disappointed
I'm just gonna say it as it is, I found this movie utterly boring. Like in a bad way, the plot was a 0/10 for me but the whole concept was new with the gothic dark theme which I loved. and that was about it
Wednesday Addams wasn't dark enough
Terrible movie theater experience! My child is terrified! Fire alarms going off no re-entry! Poor crowd management! Shame on AMC Port Chester!
Boring
It was alright, I was expecting a lil more though
Saw in 3D looked good but that’s it movie making at it’s worst!
We loved it
Did not like it. Real d is just 3D 🙄
I was under-impressed. Grew up on The Addams Family- expected more. The only character that kept my interest was Wednesday. I actually enjoyed her character's storyline.
They could have kept all the devilish stuff out. Ruined it.
Boring
I didn’t make to the show and wasn’t able to contact the manager and lost my money
Enjoyed the music and the meaning behind it but I expected more.
Terrible
Wasn’t really a fan of the movie, I found it a little boring. Ended up leaving in the middle of the movie.
Lame and a lot of inappropriate material for kids.
I watched this movie from beginning to end and it was enjoyable.
Just had to leave the theater early after we saw a scene we weren’t comfortable with
It was ok. Tried to go to sleep a couple of times.
It was ok
Boring
I slept through the whole movie....I would give zero stars if I could.....dont waste your time or money
It was boring
could have done more with it. It had a couple of funny scenes, but nothing that'd be considered hilarious.
I was honestly expecting more, but I guess the message is all right for kids.
I’ve never seen the original Addams Family but I pretty much got the gist of what they’re supposed to be like. This movie was what you would describe The Nightmare Before Christmas, weird and strange but highly enjoyable non the less. The story was fun, cast was delightfully strange and the message was wonderful. If you’re looking for a fun Halloween experience and not a horror movie fan then go see this, you’ll enjoy yourself
did not reach expectations
Disappointed! #wait until free streaming
very long and boring movie
it was really bad... not even funny
it's alright
Metacritic
The filmmakers and a nifty cast give the characters some clever, amusing flourishes — it’s definitely diverting seeing the Addamses rendered in state-of-the-art animation, given their cartoon origins — but it ultimately isn’t enough to keep the mood from turning dull.

Anyone who’s still engaged by the end of the movie is probably too young to remember the original.

Yes, there are funny lines, but nearly all of them are familiar to fans; it’s almost like a greatest hits of “Addams Family” quotables.
