Description

It's 1947 Hollywood and Eddie Valiant (Bob Hoskins), a down-on-his-luck detective is hired to find proof that Marvin Acme, gag factory mogul and owner of Toontown, is playing hanky-panky with femme fatale Jessica Rabbit, wife of Maroon Cartoon superstar, Roger Rabbit. When Acme is found murdered, all fingers point to Roger, who begs the Toon-hating Valiant to find the real evildoer.

  • Liked This Movie When I Saw It On Disney+, & It Was OK

    I never saw “Who Framed Roger Rabbit?” when it was released to theaters in 1988 because I wasn’t born yet nor did I get to see it in school at the time. Granted, I didn’t know the movie even existed until I started watching Ms. Mojo & its predecessor website WatchMojo.com. When I finally did see “Who Framed Roger Rabbit?” on Disney+ for the 1st time, I immediately liked it because of how animation & live-action were blended into the movie & understood why it was a huge success owing to its critical & financial success. However, my least favorite character was & will always be without a doubt Judge Doom not only because of all his evil misdeeds, but also simply because saying his name will haunt you. Despite the controversies that this movie faced throughout the years, I’m still glad it’s a critical & financial success. Too bad it doesn’t have a decent sequel that will live up to the success this movie has, but I hope it’s not too late to start. In short, I love “Who Framed Roger Rabbit?”.

    Running often at 24 per second, every frame is crafted with talent marked by passion. The highest praise I can think of is to call this work of genius masterfully cartoonish. The period-piece detective story draws the audience into its outlandish-ness and the spot-on acting, especially from Bob Hoskins, never questions the plausibly impossible. Therefore, the marvelously squashed and stretched, hand drawn and exquisitely shaded characters inhabit the screen as naturally as their real world counterparts. If I had to name my favorites beyond Roger and Jessica, I’d have to say it would be a toss up between the weasels and the fleshed-out bullets. Owning this movie allows me to watch it once straight through, then repeat my favorite parts frame-by-frame. Which I do every time.
  • One of the best

    With its unprecedented blending of animated characters from across the Disney, Warner Brothers greats and its timeless homage to film noir Hollywood, “Who Framed Roger Rabbit” is a technical feat that should also be celebrated for its wonderfully enthusiastic dedication to entertainment and will always emerge as one of the genre’s most groundbreaking movies. It’s never looked better in 4K — get it now and enjoy it forever!

    I want to preface this review by saying I have watched this on Cartoon Network before. This is one of my favorite movies and I have been watching it since I was a kid. I love the innocence and comedy that Roger Rabbit puts forward. I will say that when I was a kid, a lot of the plot ( and most of the dirty jokes) went right over my head because they were well tuned to adult understanding. But I liked it, nevertheless, due to the cartoon appearances and slapstick comedy. Now that I’m an adult, I like the movie even more because I can understand the complex plot and the hidden Easter eggs within the movie (along with the dirty jokes). This is a great classic and a comedy must-see.
  • Awesome

    Disney, what on earth did you do to your classic movie? This video's colours are MUCH too dark. Compare it to the DVD remastered bonus release from years ago and see! Why darkly dim all the bright vibrant colours! Fix it, Disney! >:-(
