The Addams Family (2019) Trailer Review

My 4th trailer review. Boy, it feels like it’s been a while since I last did one of these. Anyway, today I will be reviewing the teaser trailer for the upcoming 2019 animated adaption of “The Addams Family”. Before I get started on telling you all what’s on my mind, though, take a look at this trailer:

Now then, onto my thoughts: Admittedly, I haven’t really seen any adaption of “The Addams Family”. No comics. No movies. Not even a tv show about the famous family. I have mostly been familiar with them thanks to hearing about them. But, I would definitely like to say that from the time I first saw this trailer, I found myself having a lot of fun with it. I loved the execution of the whole video, such as the sneak peek on how fun-sounding the voice actors are portraying their characters. Every joke that was also thrown in there, I couldn’t help but find myself on the verge of cracking up. It surprised me really that MGM was going to be the studio set to be distributing this film, because these days, they haven’t been that big of a company like in the 1900s. It totally has me wondering if they’re planning on trying to put themselves back on top, that’s for sure. On the topic of the animation, I can tell that it likely won’t be meeting the standards of, say...Disney. Pixar. Or Dreamworks. But, I can also tell that it’s likely not MGM’s intention to try to be. It looks like their goal was for the animation to be in a style that’s faithful to how the source material’s cartoons and comics look, while at the same time, make it something unique and comfortable to watch. All in all, this trailer’s got me awfully interested in seeing this film when it comes out, perhaps even go to see it in theaters this Halloween. It has even gotten me interested in checking out some of the already-made installments starring the Addams Family. What do you guys think?
