Gomez hits Lurch with his car just before they find the abandoned asylum. This leads me to the introduction of Lurch. I hated this! Surely in Addams lore the mansion has been the family home for generations of Addams before Gomez and Morticia, right? But here they just stumble upon it and basically take it? Does this mean the Addams family are swatting in this abandoned asylum? I mean, they haven't bought it, surely it belongs to the state (?). This asylum becomes their new home, the Addams mansion. Secondly, after the newlyweds are run out of whatever town they live in, they reach an abandoned loony bin. Firstly where does Morticia live at the very start? It appears as though she's living in the sewers? Eh? Where is this located? It kinda looks like a period set village. None of this satisfied me in the slightest. We also see how they get the mansion and how they meet Lurch. So firstly as already mentioned, at the start of this movie we see Gomez and Morticia before they are married. Her solution? Get rid of the Addams family.
Meanwhile in the town there is an obsessive reality TV host who is wanting to turn the local town into the perfect community as expected the Addams are getting the way of her vision. As expected Morticia is firmly against this but struggles to keep Wednesday from exploring. Their reason is they know they will come across as weird outcasts to the 'normies' and they don't want Pugsley or Wednesday to deal with it.Īs expected Wednesday does eventually discover the outside world and wants to explore it after meeting another local girl her own age. All the while Gomez and Morticia are keeping Pugsley and Wednesday unaware of the small local town nearby. The Addams move into their new home (I'll get to that) and go about their daily strange lives. The plot is unfortunately you're average affair which has been played out many many many times before (including the 1993 film 'Addams Family Values' and the basis for the entire 1992 animated series). This 2019 animated movie is apparently a reboot of the classic 1991 movie. Addams macabre little family of ghouls, misfits, and monsters has since gone on to become a staple of American pop culture alongside the similarly themed Munster Family with cartoons, TV series, and movies. The all American family was seen a certain way and this was Addams twisted view on the matter. The Addams family was a satirical inversion of your typical American family of the time. In 1938 Charles Addams created a cartoon family that would become his legacy.
