Who Framed Roger Rabbit stars Bob Hoskins as detective Eddie Valiant who has turned to alcohol following the death of his brother at the hands of a toon, who work with humans in 1940’s Hollywood and have their own home called Toontown, but when the owner is found dead, TV star Roger Rabbit is the prime suspect and he needs Valiant’s help to clear his name, before an evil judge clears him permanently.
Who Framed Roger Rabbit is a lot of fun to watch, as it’s a technically impressive film brilliantly combining the real and the animated worlds as well as the Disney and Warner Brothers cartoon staples that also creates some priceless encounters, but if there was a failing behind the film, it takes a sharp turn in the third act as we head into Toontown, it is here that the film loses the edge it built up and turns into a live action cartoon with a weak ending.
But despite that, the film entertained me so I give it 3 out of 5.
