Reviews
- Lexicon of international film: "After the Addams Family celebrate the" Munsters ", an eerily beautiful TV family of the '60s, their resurrection. But this " Christmas Special " can not compete with the naive charm of the original. The overmatched performer and charging, uninhibited and a ordering hand of the director can be no question. A film that tries to build on a television cult without being able to show the slightest feeling for this kind of entertainment. "
- Cinema: " The TV look- a cult series of the 60s shows once again that the " Addams Family "is simply funny, evil and has more class! "
