Addams Family Values (1993)

EW's GRADE
B

Details Rated: PG-13; Length: 94 Minutes; Genre: Comedy; With: Anjelica Huston and Raul Julia; Distributor: Paramount Pictures

The Addams Family has a new addition. But we may have to wait until the Nov. 19 release of Addams Family Values to meet the little whatever. The current trailer for Addams Family Values never gives viewers a good look at the new arrival; all we see is Thing slapping a child's bottom in the delivery room and beatific smiles from family members gathered around the cradle. ''He has my father's eyes,'' beams Gomez (Raul Julia). ''Gomez, take those out of his mouth,'' deadpans Morticia (Anjelica Huston). Talk about leaving us wanting to see more. ''We knew that with the Addams Family audience, we could be a little arch,'' says Arthur Cohen, Paramount president of worldwide marketing. ''We still show the goods -- but we flirt.'' So we won't meet the baby until the film's release? ''I didn't say that,'' flirts Cohen.
