I thought that this series isn't horrible, but isn't as great as everybody is saying either.

I like Jenna Ortega as Wednesday, however, Gomez, Mortitia, and Fester were all badly cast in my opinion.

I also thought that all the characters were overdone and too stereotypical and dramatic. Enid and Wednesday contrasted each other too much for my liking and there was hardly any gray area in the characters personality.

The plot was cheesy and, again, too black and white. It was not very complex and there was barely any suspense. It reminded me of a rip-off, cheesier version of Harry Potter.

I think they could've turned it into a great series.

That being said, I did like the special effects and sets. As previously mentioned, I did enjoy Jenna Ortegas depiction of Wednesday in the film and think she did a great job acting.
