The daffy title character had something to do with it, as
did the techno wizardry - not to mention the stunning performance
of Bob Hoskins as the down-on-his-luck detective Eddie Valiant
in 1940s' Hollywood.
This is one of the all-time great efforts from a wonderful
actor who starred in such top-shelf productions as Pennies
from Heaven and The Long Good Friday.
Valiant is hired by toon superstar Roger Rabbit to check
up on his Jane Russellesque wife, Jessica, who may be playing
fast and loose with movie mogul Marvin Acme.
It wasn't looking good for the floppy-eared guy before, and
now, when the big banana ends up dead, he is right in the
poo.
And just what connection does the sinister Judge Doom (Christopher
Lloyd) have to all the suspicious goings-on?
Who Framed Roger Rabbit is a classic movie and the two-disc
DVD is crammed with quality extras.
The transfer of both audio and video is just stunning and
is a must for movie buffs and fans.
Conclusion: 85% Extras: 80%.
