However, there is some important context that you are missing. Addams Family Values is a sequel to the Addams Family (1991) Fans praised it for its satirical take on the ideal American family. Thus, the humor in this movie might be a little odd, but it will surely tickle your funny bone.

The Mitchells vs. the Machines

An animated movie about humans vs. robots sounds like the perfect match for kids. The Mitchells decide to go on a road trip to drop off their eldest kid in college and rejuvenate the spark in the family. But, a world domination plan by the machines completely ruins their outing.

The movie not only has a deep story, but its ensemble cast also makes it a must-watch. There are times when the movie will make you laugh and cry at the same time.

The Willoughbys

The Willoughbys is another animated comedy film featuring another dysfunctional family. But, this one differs from the previous one, as the kids hate their parents and understandably so. As the selfish parents keep neglecting the kids, the kids plan a fake vacation to send their parents away.

What follows is almost a slice-o-life genre movie as the kids explore the city with their new nanny. Netflix released this movie in 2020.

Beethoven

Kids love animals, more so if the animals are real and not animated. This comedy movie follows a St. Bernard puppy adopted by the Newton family. Although the dog brings enough destruction, the Newtons love it.

The story would be too good to be true if there wasn’t a nasty smuggler or scientist who wanted the dog. So, we have a crazy vet who wants to experiment with the dog.
