Wednesday is gruesome even by Addams standards, and her increased frustration with her family makes the idea of her belonging somewhere else have some appeal. But they are pursued by a lawyer ( Wallace Shawn) who says Wednesday was switched at birth and is the biological daughter of his undisclosed client. The family is off to see the sights and, Gomez hopes, spend some quality time together. His plan is to visit the country's many "dark secrets." He only means Halloween-style darkness like the Salem witch trials, Sleepy Hollow, and Death Valley. Gomez ( Oscar Isaac) is worried that Wednesday is not as close to him or as appreciative of his love for her as he wants her to be, and so he decides to take the family on a cross-country vacation in their version of an RV, complete with goth decor and a fireplace. But the sponsor of the science fair, a tech whiz named Cyrus Strange ( Bill Hader) appears via hologram to invite Wednesday to work with him to perfect her invention. She is disappointed when they give everyone a participation trophy instead of picking someone to be the best. As a demonstration, she implants some of the brain power of her Rubik's Cube-solving pet octopus to her cheerful but not very bright, raspy-voiced Uncle Fester ( Nick Kroll). In a set-up reminiscent of the spooky lab in "Frankenstein," she has invented a procedure for transferring the attributes of one creature to another. STEM superstar Wednesday Addams ( Chloë Grace Moretz) has something special for the school's science fair. The new film has a better understanding of how to make the most of what has made these characters so enduringly popular, including the Vic Mizzy song. The 2019 film had a bland "the real monsters are the ordinary conformist people" storyline that failed to take advantage of the main appeal of the Addams family, the combination of their ghoulish enjoyment of the macabre and their genuine affection and support for each other. "That's my job.") Other versions included a television cartoon show and a Broadway musical.
("Don't torture yourself," Morticia Addams soothes her husband, Gomez.
The characters and setting originated in the original Charles Addams one-panel cartoons in the New Yorke r, a nameless family with an amusingly gruesome way of life, then a 1960s sit-com with the memorable Vic Mizzy theme song, followed by two waspishly witty live-action films.
This sequel makes up for some of the problems with the 2019 " Addams Family" animated family film, which suffered from an uneven tone and a meandering storyline.
