Because we all know who we're dealing with by now, we don't have to spend nearly so much time introducing the family and their skewed universe. And then there was the totally shameless product placement.but I digress.Īddams Family Values, on the other hand, gets to be more playful. In the end, one left the theater feeling that the movie had been 'about' the old sight gags.
As a result, the plot felt forced, as if it had been the best way the writers could think of to showcase all the source material. The first had to spend much of its time introducing the Family-and, just as importantly, paying (totally justified) homage to Charles Addams' brilliant cartoons and to the old television series. Paul Rudnick clearly had a field day writing this screenplay.Īs odd as it may seem, this sequel is in many ways superior to its predecessor.
