Following Val Kilmer's portrayal of the caped crusader in Batman Forever, the fourth Batman feature stars George Clooney under the pointy-eared cowl, with Chris O'Donnell returning as Robin the Boy Wonder. This time the dynamic duo is up against the nefarious Mr. Freeze (Arnold Schwarzenegger), who is bent on turning the world into an iceberg, and the slyly seductive but highly toxic Poison Ivy (Uma Thurman), who wants to eliminate all animal life and turn the Earth into a gigantic greenhouse. Alicia Silverstone lends a hand as Batgirl, and Elle McPherson plays the thankless role of Batman/Bruce Wayne's fiancée. A sensory assault of dazzling colors, senseless action, and lavish sets run amok, this Batman & Robin offers an overdose of eye candy, but it is strictly for devoted Bat-o-philes. --Jeff Shannon

1.0 out of 5 stars Special Guest Villain: Joel Schumacher, March 24, 2008
By Scott Rivers (Los Angeles, CA USA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)    (VINE VOICE)   
You know you're in trouble when "Batman & Robin" (1997) turns out to be less entertaining than the low-budget 1949 serial. Director Joel Schumacher deserves the blame for this comic-book fiasco and remains the Ultimate Bat Villain. George Clooney gives it his best shot as the Dark Knight, but has the misfortune of appearing in the all-time worst Batman movie.

1.0 out of 5 stars Thank your Saints that movies can't produce odors..., May 27, 2006
By PohlSE (Texas) - See all my reviews
How to review one of the five worst movies ever made?

I could say that Batman and Robin plays less like a superhero movie and more like an episode of Queer Eye for the Hero Guy; but that doesn't quite capture the true level of putrid that this film reaches.

I could say that Alicia Silverstone (playing Batgirl, if you can believe it) and spandex pants are not friends; but that might seem a little too snarky.

I could say that Joel Schumacher's "direction" is so non-existent and Akiva Goidsman "writing" so abysmal that the entire film never even manages to reach the quality of the average high school talent show; but that doesn't give enough credit to talent shows.

I could point out that all the flashing neon that assaults the viewers during nearly every scene (and from nearly every Bat device that the "stealthy" Dark Knight uses) causes severe eye strain before the movie is half way through; but most viewers lost their vision when their eyes were poked out by the huge, hard nipples on the Batsuit, and the rest of the viewers either turned it off or committed suicide before the halfway mark anyway.

I could say that Arnold Schwarzenegger, George Clooney, Chris O'Donnell, Uma Thurman, and Alicia Silverstone all turn in the worst performances of their entire careers (and with Silverstone that's really saying something); but that might be too obvious since none of them ever mentions this film at all, even when asked about it.

But instead of saying all that I think I can sum it up best like this:

Not since "Manos: The Hands of Fate" (the worst film ever made) have I ever actually felt myself aging second by second while watching a movie until I watched Batman and Robin.

I have no doubt that this movie plays on a continuous loop in hell.

1.0 out of 5 stars POOF!, September 14, 2005
By The JuRK (Our Vast, Cultural Desert) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
This movie should have been called, THE AMBIGUOUSLY GAY DUO: THE MOVIE.

Or maybe [...] EYE FOR THE BAT GUY.

Men die from kissing Uma Thurman, the bat suit has nipples, the acting is beyond campy, the camera is flamboyant, the colors are simply fabulous!!!
Yikes, this was bad. Joel Schumacher became known as the director who killed the Batman franchise...and it never slowed down his career, no matter how many movies he wrecks.

Thankfully, BATMAN BEGINS hit screens this year and proved that the Dark Knight can survive just about everything.
Even assaults on his manhood.
