The cinematography in The Addams Family is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows
Rewatched The Addams Family last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.

[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in The Addams Family?
Director clearly thought The Addams Family was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.

Unpopular opinion: The Addams Family is the most overrated film of the decade
Honestly, The Addams Family would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.
