“More than a technological wonder, WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT? is brilliantly funny, bracingly smart, and surprisingly moving.”
—Dave Kehr, Chicago Tribune
“A Hollywood entertainment that lived up to its hype.”
—Jonathan Rosenbaum
One of the most remarkable technical achievements in filmmaking ever, and the thing is, you will forget about the mastery after the first ten minutes because you’ll be so absorbed and delighted. For those who have seen WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT?, feel free to skip the rest of this and buy your ticket now. For the rest of you, get ready for one of the most immersive, hilarious, and astonishing works of popular entertainment you will ever see.
It takes place in ’40s Hollywood — a Hollywood in which animated stars walk the same streets as their live-action counterparts. When a shocking murder is committed, the title cartoon character hires a (live-action) detective played by Bob Hoskins to get to the bottom of the crime. Along the way, he encounters the evil Judge Doom (Christopher Lloyd); Roger’s iconically sultry wife, Jessica Rabbit (voiced by Kathleen Turner); and many others.
Appropriate for viewers of all ages, this is one you need to see in the theater.
