The film was not as successful as its predecessor and received generally negative reviews from critics, who criticized the humor and story.Īt a science fair, Wednesday Addams is set to present her experiment, where she uses her pet squid Socrates' DNA on Uncle Fester to show how humans can be improved (with the side effect of gradually transmutating Fester).
It also became available for online rental on the same day in the United States and Canada. The film was theatrically released in the United States by United Artists Releasing on October 1, 2021, followed by an international release by Universal Pictures on October 8. It tells the story of the Addams family as they go on a road trip.

This could've of been a great series if it was given a chance, a giant missed opportunity. My only regret watching this film is knowing that there are no more films in the series. I will revisit Waynes World 2 which died a similar death and came out around the same time. In a world where comic books movies recycle plots and villains, it's interesting to see films that had oddball characters and inventive characters. This film should of been the stepping stone for at two more sequels and I think fans needed to show up in bigger support.
Looking back it is still a superior film, the humour is right on target and the plot has improved so much, the first film had a weak premise with superb casting. The film failed terribly at the box office, essentially killing the franchise dead in its tracks, I couldn't understand the reason for ignoring this film.
The first film had a muddled story but it created the groundwork for the family dynamic, which is the heart and soul of the film series.
I remember watching this movie at the cinemas and remembering how much better than the original film it was.
