Who Framed Roger Rabbit? Live Action/Animated films have been a sub genre which has been around since the dawn of animation with films such as Pete's Dragon, Song of the South, Mary Poppins etc but it was Roger Rabbit that set the bar high. Essentially a murder mystery with animated characters, Roger Rabbit tells the story of Roger, a 'Toon' who is accused of murdering Marvin Acme who was supposedly seen having an affair with Roger's wife Jessica Rabbit. On the run from Judge Doom, Roger finds help from Eddie Valiant, a gruff detective who has a disdain for Toons as his brother was killed by one.
The film is an achievement both technically and from a story Point of View with a great cast with Bob Hoskins as Eddie and Christopher Lloyd as Judge Doom, the film isn't aimed at kids but they will enjoy with cameos from from iconic cartoon characters and it show how great a director Robert Zemeckis is. It is still watchable today and is not only one of the best family film but one of the best films ever.
