Batman and Robin makes me ashamed to be a Batman fan, it's an abomination. It ruins the Batman character, it ruins Bruce Wayne, and it ruins everything the character stands for. Robin is the most annoying character in cinema history and theBatman and Robin makes me ashamed to be a Batman fan, it's an abomination.

You know when you have high expectations for an anticipated film? One that you have been waiting to watch since it was first announced?

One that you have been waiting to watch since it was first announced? A film you want to see so bad that you are willing to go at the first opportunity, but ended up flopping so hard that you decided to walk out the movie theater before the film ended? Well "Batman and Robin" is one of those bad examples of anticipated movies gone wrong.

Batman and Robin was directed by Joel Schumacher (8MM, Falling Down, Batman Forever) and stars George Clooney, Chris O'Donnell, and Arnold Schwarzenegger.

The film starts out with Bruce Wayne (played by George Clooney) and his buddy Robin (played by Chris O'Donnell) who get a distress signal about something going on in a museum in Gotham City. We then see a funny glimpse of the bat suit showing bat butts and bat nipples. While Clooney looks very silly in the Batman outfit, it seems it was designed differently for the film for some reason, Robin's outfit looks just as silly as Batman's costume. Batman and Robin travel to the museum only to find Mr. Freeze (played by Arnold Schwarzenegger) steal a precious gem that he needs to freeze Gotham in ice. Other events go on in the movie along with another villain named "Poison Ivy" (played by Uma Thurman) who also wants to take over Gotham. Batman and Robin must stop Mr. Freeze and Poison Ivy before all is lost.

While the story sounds silly and ridiculous all at the same time, it does not get any better unfortunately. The story progresses with unnecessary scenes that could have been left out and replaced scenes that actually have something to do with the story. An example of this is when Barbara Wilson (played by Alicia Silverstone, also known as "Batgirl") goes to a motorcycle race to win money; this scene is more "in the way" type scenario rather than having to do something with the plot itself. But there are other scenes where it does not have anything related to the plot, that's a shame because they are there to make the movie longer rather than explaining more of the main story.

Not to mention, but the performances in the movie are just terrible. This is more like B-movie acting rather than professional acting; especially coming from these A-list actors who have made tons of great movies. What happened with the actors during post-production? Don't know, guess they were not themselves when this was being filmed.

Batman and Robin could have been so much better if effort was put into it. Since this was a huge anticipated movie back in the day, this could have been successful if more thought and effort was put into it. None of these cast and crew members seemed to care, screenplay was poorly written, story makes no sense, the art design looks silly; overall a waste of time and money.

Just don't forget your bat credit card if you plan to watch this movie.… Expand

No. Just no. I could say NOPE one hundred times in this review, but my artistic critique tells me not to. It may seem harsh to give this movie a two, but lets face it. Clooney? As the BATMAN? Really Schumacher? Really? What were you THINKING?

Truly a bad movie and one of the worst superhero movies of all time. Batman and Robin is just a parody of of Adam West's Batman series and completely filled with a lot of puns.

This batman movie is basically the original series with too many pun.., a little darker, and bat nipples. This is probably the worst super hero movie of all time and probably one of the worst movies of all time.

One of the worst movies I've ever seen. Terrible dialogue, nonsensical plot, terrible humor, bad acting. This movie is the perfect example of a "franchise killer".

This is the worst job that Joel Schumacher did. the movie is boring, the special effects are like 1978, the action was so low, and the nipple of batman and robin was the worst error what the movie has. 2/10

This is an absolutely dreadful exploitation of the Batman franchise. The actor portraying the caped crusader has been different the last three films and each actor has screwed up the role worse than the last.

Bazen dünyanın en iyi oyuncuları da bir araya gelse, o filmi güzelleştiremiyor. Konu bakımından yetersiz, işleniş açısından kötü, ortaya gerçekten berbat bir film çıkmış.

Batman & Robin is one of the worst superhero movies ever made, with jokes and puny dodgy, bad acting, the look is very colorful and the script is very problematic.

Every character in this film is just a parody of the real characters. The villain Mr. Freeze does nothing but spit out puns. The villain Poison Ivy is just as corny as the rest of the movie. And the villain Bane is downgraded to a retarded monkey. In the end, this is a truly bad film but can still be enjoyed. My rating would be 3.4/10… Expand

Batman and Robin is one of the worst movie's I have ever saw in my life. The studio, the screen writer and the film director made this cartoonish, ridiculous bad movie that got characters like Batman, Robin, Bane etc and the story completelyBatman and Robin is one of the worst movie's I have ever saw in my life. The studio, the screen writer and the film director made this cartoonish, ridiculous bad movie that got characters like Batman, Robin, Bane etc and the story completely wrong just to sell toys to a bunch of kids hoping for a influx of kids to see this movie. The acting is this movie is such an Atrocity, George Clooney failed to play Batman properly and when Bruce Wayne was wearing the Batman costume he didn’t act intimidating and frightening . The other characters they screwed up was Dick Grayson and in this movie Dick is repulsive,Bane lacked intelligence and Arnold Schwarzenegger was miscast as Mr.Freeze. The first shot of this movie was inappropriate for a Batman film and hilariously bad. The story was super terrible. This movie is basically a live action Saturday morning cartoon. As a superhero film it sucks but as watchable comedic film to make fun of it, gets a 10/10… Expand

With absurd over-the-top performances, laughable pun filled dialogue, and outrageous plot developments, this is one of the most entertaining Batman movies for all the wrong reasons. I'll gladly watch this over Batman Forever or any Zack Snyder DC movie any day of the week and twice on Sunday.… Expand
