Product: Who Framed Roger Rabbit [VHS] (1988)
Rating: 4.0
Great for cartoon fanatics, otherwise............
Yep, I'm a cartoon fanatic. Especially of the era depicted here and of the Hanna-Barbera/Filmation/Rankin Bass of my own era and the Simpsons.What that said, this film has a lot for the cartoon lover. Bugs Bunny and Mickey Mouse actually in the same scene? A comic duel between Donald and Daffy Duck? Looney Tunes meets the Disney crew? This is an animationphile's dream come true!However, the character of Roger is WAY too silly, stupid, and lacking in appeal for me. Imagine Jerry Lewis as a cartoon rabbit and you get the idea. A bit overdone in that aspect. But the business with Jessica Rabbit is amusing as well as the Robert Hoskins character (who interacts quite well with the cartoons-no mean feat for an actor).Overall, it has it's moments (cartoon freaks will LOVE the ending), but not the kind of thing I want to watch more than twice.
