Though mitigating this is that, thanks to Itt's [[TheUnintelligible method of speaking]], you wouldnt even be able to tell it was him without prior knowledge or him getting billing in the opening.

When this is revealed in the climax, even the townspeople who supported her conformist ideals thinks that's going way too far.]]

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: Or actor, in this case. Fans of the live-action movies bemoaned that the handsome Oscar Isaac isn't playing the character in live-action, as he's probably one of the few actors that could rival Raul Julia in portrayal of Gomez.

* InternetBackdraft: Long before the film was released, it received backlash from fans of Creator/MelissaHunter's ''Adult Wednesday Addams'' web series. The Charles Addams estate sent Hunter a cease-and-letter that said she could not continue the series as long as the film was in production. This meant that the series was essentially ScrewedByTheLawyers even though it was aimed at a much more [[IncrediblyLamePun adult]] audience than this film.

* AudienceColoringAdaptation: The fact that the live-action Addams Family films are this has caused this film to suffer criticism directed towards the character designs, which are more based on the original comics (and thus "ugly" in the eyes of fans who are more used to Raul Julia and Anjelica Huston playing the characters).
* MisaimedFandom: A film about accepting those different from you and not forcing them to conform to your standards has received complaints from fans about how the character designs are different and don't match the live-actions portrayals. Go figure.



** The "Different family" is still a family after all.
** Everyone is "Weird" in some way.

* BrokenAesop: Wednesday gets grounded for wearing a pink unicorn barrette, which rather shifts the franchise's usual moral of being open-minded about other lifestyles to saying the Addams' lifestyle is the ''only'' correct way to live. Contrast to ''Film/AddamsFamilyValues'' where Morticia does her level best to encourage Pubert seeming to become more conventional despite not understanding it.

** This isn't the first ''Addam's Family'' movie to incorporate modern music in its soundtrack. The first two live action movies have rap songs (which Cousin Itt--voiced here by Music/SnoopDogg--also had a taste for) and the third has an R&B song.
