    Batman Digression

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Mar 21, 2000 | 1 out of 2 found this Batman & Robin (1997) review helpful

    Batman and Robin is the worst movie of the decade. The superfluous fluff of Batman on ice sinks the once proud franchise. This movie will be held with the likes of Alien3. The malevolently genius and tormented Val Kilmer Batman exists no more and th...at is unfortunate... Read more Less

    What a dog - arf, arf...............

    Someone tell George Clooney he needs to go back to playing bit roles in comedies like Roseanne. He has neither the screen presence nor acting ability to carry this off, much less for anone to even care about the character. Arnold, go back to the term...inator where you dont have to show any acting ability or emotion. overall, this movie just sucks! Read more Less

    Just as bad as Batman Forever

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Mar 9, 2003

    Despite some good cover art and special effects, the direction of the film is flawed and it didn't really have anything to do with the first one. The acting is not that great either. It has a more mainstream feel. The music sucks played by some mallc...ore band. It feels like nobody wants to waste time watching this awful film since this one was a joke compare to the original one released in 1989. Read more Less

    The Dark Night hangs its cape in shame

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Aug 17, 2002

    Dont blame the special effects for this movie (even though they were mediocre) blame the plot and the casting. Clooney as Batman? Yeah right. Hell Sean Connery would have been more believable as Batman. At least he can act. You better stick at what... you do best Clooney, pretending to heal people. The only believable actor portraying Batman was and always will be Keaton. Kilmer wasn't as bad as Clooney but he have a more boyish feel and didnt seem to be dark and mysterious. And what the hell did Joel Schumacher was thinking? Batman is supposed to have a dark gothic feeling to it. With all the neons and lights, how will The Dark Knight lurked in the shadows. We need Burton back. Since when did the Bat Mobile has hydrulic? We need Keaton and Burton back. Also whats a Burton movie without Danny Elfman? For anyone that does not know him, he is the musical genius for movies such as Batman, Spider-man, Sleepy Hollow, and countless more; oh yeah and lets not forget the theme for The Simpsons. Lets hope the fifth installment of Batman will welcome back Burton along with other originals. I could have done something more productive rather than waste about 90 minutes of my life watching this. In the words of the Comic Book guy from the Simpsons, "worst episode ever." Read more Less

    Death of the Batman Movie Franchise

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Mar 19, 2002

    And we have Joel Schumacher and George Clooney to blame. Such a shame that the Batman franchise had to suffer the same fate as the Superman movies.

    The Dark Not...

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Sep 30, 2001

    Ouch. The "Batman" series hits rock bottom. Tim Burton and Michael Keaton are long gone, and in their wake are hacks, merely churning out yet another profit busting and soda pop pushing sequel. Think I'm kidding? Consider this: "Batman and Robin" is ...the fourth Batman movie and featuring George Clooney as the third consecutive actor to play Batman. One splits, and another falls right into place without missing a beat. Clooney's a fine actor - but he's lost in a role which is increasingly about The Suit. By this standard, James Bond is Hamlet as the actor is at least required to bring something to the role. But let's not kid ourselves, "Batman and Robin" isn't about acting, plot, or entertainment.Instead, it's a money machine that has been designed to funnel large amounts of loot to Warner Bros. No more, no less. As such, this isn't even that good. I don't have a problem with moving a few happy meals or action figures off the shelves, but rarely have I felt as pandered to as with "Batman and Robin". This is, in effect, a children's movie - something the first two definetly weren't. Adults will find little value here, save maybe a few hours worth of quiet timeas the colors and cartoon action washes over their kids. Maybe in that context I'm too hard on "Batman and Robin". As a kids film, this is no more offensive than say "Pokemon" or anything of the so-called "junk" I probably sat my parents through when I was a kid. I mean, none of the characters are particularly menacing - least of all a positively jovial Arnold Schwartzenegger as Mister Freeze - but we're miles away from anything even resembling drama. If anything, "Batman and Robin" make the first two films look like works of art. They weren't perfect - not by a long shot - but there was at least an honest attempt to create something different and even challenge an audience. With "Batman and Robin" the only challenge is sitting through the damn thing. Read more Less

    I warned them not to but NOO! They HAD to cast George Clooney, and See what happened? Very Corny punchlines, so so acting (Thanx Arnold, you too Clooney) and lackluster script Combine to make this Batman Movie to be one of the worst in the entire ser...ies. Read more Less
