Product: Who Framed Roger Rabbit [VHS] (1988)
Rating: 5.0
The best movie to mix live action with animation....ever!!
Who Framed Roger Rabbit is the best film ever that mixs animation with live action. Lame movies such as Cool World and Space Jam have tried to be like Roger Rabbit but have failed.Roger Rabbit has been framed for murder by an evil toon and only one man can save him, the former detective for toons Eddie Valent. Eddie Valent used to take cases for toons until one killed his brother. He has to come face to face with his past in-order to save Roger.Bob Hoskins is great as Eddie Valent as is Christopher Lloyd as the villain. It's the special effects that are the real star in Who Framed Roger Rabbit though. They're flawless and you get the feel that the actors are really talking and interacting with the toons.I really would of loved if they made a few sequels but it's a little late for that now since you don't really see Bob Hoskins around anymore. He had much more star power then than he does now as well.The only problem that I still have with the film is that it has a very adult theme to it and isn't as much for kids as a movie with a bunch of famous cartoon characters should be. There's one point where Donald Duck calls Daffy Duck a really bad prejudice word for instance. You have to listen hard to hear it but it's there. Still though Daffy versues Donald is so much fun that I wouldn't mind a sequel just to see go at it again.The dvd for this movie is a dream come true for me. When they released that no feature version on dvd I was really disapointed. This dvd totally makes up for it though. It's one of the best dvd's of this new year for sure. I've only seen the Roger Rabbit short Tummy Trouble but this dvd gives you the chance to see all 3 of his shorts. It's just an awesome dvd. It's a must have for every Roger Rabbit fan.
