Terrible plot and script don’t even bother

I too was drawn to Toni Collette after her outstanding performance in Hereditary. So I wouldn’t blame her per say, but the director and script writers it’s all on you. I was expecting something similar to ‘the killers’ with a naive blonde dragged into the violence that eventually gets comfortable and good at it. Instead I was left with a middle aged woman’s wet dream (I suspect that’s all the 4-5 review audience). Instead of normal character thrown into a difficult environment, they instead stripped her character back into a dumb giggly whiny helpless person. Even the cheating scene in the beginning… Who on earth would act so timid, crying and treating the mistress like a best friend. And don’t get me started on the most absolute cheesy scenes like the ‘hot guy’ at the airport she just falls into his arms. This movie was just a bunch of sexual jokes added in to fill the gaps of the terrible script and characters. Don’t waste your time or money on this!

Dont even bother. Barely understandable dialogue, plot and scene. Such a shame because it had an interesting premise and i was waiting for a 'boss battle' or at least showing the other protagonist sister as a present day adult which never did, kidnap scene that never happened on screen so nobody felt 'sympathy'. the amout of repeated flash backs made me want to walk out of the cinemas, we get it you wanted to destroy something in the future, you don't have to show me 50 times. and if you do show it that many times you should at least show a turning point with a past and future and why it changed and happened the way it did. so many questions with 0 answers. the main antagonist was never even mentioned again and wasn't killed only his henchmen which doesn't even make sense. The music was also extremely loud and dramatic over the same repeated sequence for no reason and became laughable by the end. when it ended I was extremely disappointed and audibly said ' is that it??????'. One of the worst movies I've ever seen in my life.

At first it was interesting but the directing/stunts was Bollywood esque laughable, the script was all telling no showing through bad directing. For example mcAvoy says “I have to step into my fathers shoes” like.... we know.... you’re holding his picture. Seems like a story that a high schooler would write for creative writing. Great concept but with terrible production team and believability.

Not a single bad thing to say about this beautiful show

This movie is a mess and I don’t know how it did so well. Gomez’s accent changes constantly between Spanish, French and American which is confusing. Morticia was boring and lacked her own thoughts and jokes away from the general theme of the movie. My one big pet peeve I have about this movie is that when Wednesday is being exposed to ‘happy things’ morticia isn’t supportive. the original Mortica was still supportive when her daughter wanted to do normal things like sleep away camp etc. and never said no to those things. Instead of forcing her to be like them completely like in this movie. They missed the theme of them being the normal ones and the ‘normal ones’ being uninteresting and lacked character (like all the blonde girls from the OG family values) they were meant to be ideal supportive parents and allow the unthinkable even if they didn’t agree with it themselves. None of the family members should have acted maliciously to outsiders like Gomez did to the renovators, it was just meant to be coincidental accidents. Don’t even get me started on the CGI, it just felt... wrong.
