The Addams Family Values

"The Addams Family Values" is a direct sequel to the first film previously discussed, wherein most of the Addams Family are celebrating the birth of a baby boy. However, there are some within the family that aren't as excited as the others. The boy's birth also caused the hiring of a new nanny, which, like the previously mention long-lost relative, may not be what they say there are, per IMDb.

Both critics and movbie audiences found the movie great, with the critics acknowledging the film's new characters, which they claim they add "dimension to... a comedy much more stubstantial than the original."
