At the end of the film, in Halloween, when the Addams go excitedly to the cemetery to play "Wake the Dead" the newcomer in the family Margaret (Dana Ivey) innocently asks the Granny (Judith Malina. I've never played that, how does it go? to which the old coot retorts with a demonic smile "Did you bring the shovel. br> This brief exchange will help me to illustrate the two problems of "The Addams Family. First of all, the movie needed more bits of dark and hilarious dialogs like that one, not only it is hilarious but it subtly sets the eternal gap between the off-the-wall Addams Family and the common people, no matter how eager they are to discover their 'traditions. That moment echoes another scene where Wednesday (Cristina Ricci) asked a Scout girl if the biscuits were made of real children: that kind of humor was severely lacking in "The Addams Family" and the more I think about it, the more I realize it was the only one the film could provide besides the obligatory children-oriented slapstick.
The second problem is that they still felt the need to ruin to that "shovel" quote by actually showing them 'waking up the dead' and that kind of on-the-nose humor is a blatant example of the way they ruined the very effect the film could have as a comedy. I really didn't need to see what the game consisted on, I needed to laugh and the "did you bring the shovel" was enough a punch-line. So why did they had to show everyone having fun in the cemetery since it is the audience that is supposed to have fun? Barry Sonnenfeld's adaptation of the iconic cartoon made me realize one thing: he certainly understood the Addams Family and whatever they 'stood for. but he did not understand the audience.
But let's give Sonnenfeld the credit he deserves, his film is marvelously looking, it carries that scary Gothic look where I suspect many trainees made their bones before working later on the Harry Potter' franchise. The photography, the costume design and naturally, the casting contribute to set the basis of a great cartoon adaptation. Raul Julia makes a perfectly suave and seductive Gomez Adams, and Anjelica Huston has never been so frighteningly sensual, and more than that, both had that unique chemistry going, if I ever think of a dad and mom who love each other to death, well, I guess Gomez and Morticia come to my mind first.
Cristina Ricci is more than convincing as Wednesday, whose main occupation consists on tormenting her cooperative brother Pugsley (Jimmy Workman) with many instruments, from a knife to an electric chair. And when she passes by Morticia, carrying a big knife for her brother, Morticia takes it from her, to give her a larger one, how motherly of her! The moment is funny but not as the biscuits and shovel quotes, for the simple reason that they occur within the family, it is supposed to be normal, and as soon as we get used the family's weirdness, we stop looking at their eccentricity with surprised eyes. There has to be an outsider.
The outsider issue could have served the plot, either someone normal goes to the Addams Family, or the Addams Family goes to the normal world. The first idea is abandoned when the intruder is a man who bears a striking resemblance with lost uncle Fester (remarkably played by Christopher Lloyd) and is used by his tyrannical mother (Elizabeth Wilson) as a decoy in order to throw the family away with the help of a corrupted lawyer (Dan Hedaya. The first acts celebrates the reunion between Fester and his brother but it is victim of the same problem, it spends so much time in that inner circle we stop looking at it as weird.
The consequence is that the moments supposed to provide the biggest laughs don't work well, nothing comes much from the Addams party except for Cousin It's scene-stealing appearance and a fantastic 'Mamuchka' knife-dance. What lacks again is the presence of a straight person to convey the reaction of the normal word, it works for all comedies, the effectiveness of gags relies on their impact on a character who'd hate what happens to him. When Wednesday tortures her brother, it's not funny anymore because he enjoys it, how about she plays hide-and-seek with a 'normal' boy and we'll see what the outcome will be.
"The Addams Family" isn't totally unfunny, the film makes you smile and is visually entertaining but there were so much room for great laughs, it's a pity the film didn't exploit these eccentricities. The third act where the family 'discovered' the real world could have originated so many great gags, starting with good old Thing working in Fedex express. That's the stuff we expect, not a long and continuous exposition leading to a superficial conflict, the only 'conflict' possible is between the 'Addams' and normality, as during a funny school play sequence with an unexpected outburst of blood splattering the audience.
The film should have been like its last five minutes, from the way they get rid of the two villains by pushing them in a coffin, are they dead? asks Pugsley "does it matter? replies Wednesday. There is also good old Lurch (Carel Struycken) welcoming kids playing 'tricks or treats' with a tender smile, their reaction, no matter how predictable is, would make anyone laugh. And again, have you noticed, it featured 'normal' people. As I said, either the normal world comes to Addams, or they come to it, the first comes too rarely, the second too late.
The film is still a good Family comedy with cute one-liners, but it really could've been a laugh-riot. And they still had to ruin the ending by preventing us from the famous Addams score at the end, what were they thinking with that dreadfully-90's Addams groove thing.
