When I read this it about Mattie and her family getting ready to journey west. We follow Mattie and her family. Not all are going West for more land and affordable prices. We learn that another family is going to join them to go west.

Mattie has her dreams of see the Western horizon. Will she go and see the country or will she keep her pledge. Jacob see her and see Mattie after few years. It been a while. Is there love between Jacob and Maddie?

There are some surprises along the way. Will happen with Schrock family and will they be happy. Mattie got her dreams and Jacob has his. What will happen. This is the story of Mattie. Will she be tempted to follow as Englisher or will she keep her pledge?
  
The Addams Family (2019)

Altogether now:

"They're creepy and they're kooky
Mysterious and spooky
They're all together ooky
The Addams family …"

It's now over 20 years since the Addams Family last big-screen outing (in 1993), itself only 2 years after their previous outing in '91.

That means that there is an entrie generation that hasn't seen the Addams Family on the big screen: something that this (animated) film attempts to put right.

And, to damn somewhat with faint praise: this is OK, but doesn't do enough (in my opinion) to really stand out from the crowd, to really be all that memorable: there's no equivalent, say of Wednesday Addams creepy smile ("Stop it! She's scaring me!") in The Addams Family Values, say, or even of the amnesiac Lloyd Fester in the original.
