Slightly better than the original, Addams Family Values unfortunately retains characters that I can't stand.
And this time, they've decided to add an actress whom I've hated for years: Joan Cusack. Because the movie is
meant to be for kids, her cleavage is in full-frontal assault every scene she appears in. Meanwhile,
there are clever ideas which are better than whatever the crap Tim Burton can come up with.
All in all, only if the characters are likeable, Addams Family Values might have worked out well, but the racist
overtones are hard to overcome.
