Rating: Summary: "Batman & Robin" fight a series of one-liners. Review: "Batman & Robin," starring George Clooney, the new Bruce Wayne AKA Batman. Chris O'Donnell returns as Robin, the Boy Wonder. George Clooney isn't the reason the film had a negative impact, he did great as both Batman and Mr. Wayne. The lines, however, is a different story. Line after line comes a one-liner, and one of the most irritating is Mr. Freeze's line "All right, everyone, chill." It's funny at first, but then he carries it on and on at everyone he freezes. Mr. Freeze's lines, in my opinion, is what caused the bomb to go off. Uma Thurman's Poison Ivy thought as a villainess she could make herself a queen of a charity ball. The movie's story is half bad because the audience knows what is going on already. Alfred Pennyworth suffers "McGregor's Syndrome" which would only make the movie more confusing. It is also the disease that changes Mr. Freeze. This movie was just irritating.
Rating: Summary: Disappointing. But what else is new? Review: "Batman and Robin" continues a long line of insults to the Dark Knight. Joel Schumacher and Hollywood have to rethink their take on Batman before they make another wreck of a Batman movie. It seems that Hollywood still thinks that comics are "funny books", full of childish fights and the BANG and POW word bubbles characteristic of the old Adam West Batman shows (that also abused the Dark Knight character). They go for flashy effects and cute props and costumes, but when you strip all that chrome away, you have poor acting, poor plotting and a poor movie. Hollywood doesn't seem to understand that comics books are still BOOKS with STORIES that have characters, characterization, plot, irony etc. To them, these movies are a two hour toy commmercial. It's sad. You want a good Batman movie, go for the animated "Mask of the Phantasm" or "Sub Zero". They're animated, and they cannot boast big name actors or huge soudtracks, but they have what these live action movies don't: plot, tension, drama, good characterization. In short, they are good stories about Batman.
Rating: Summary: Batman and Robin: An Epic Disaster Review: If making bad films is an expertise, than Joel Shumacher is GOD!! How could any human being, living or dead, have any less of a clue about film making than Joel. Batman and Robin has leapt up and completely annhialated the original concept of Batman in one neon covered swoop. Batman's creator Bob Kane must be furious to see what a hash that hack Joel has done to an empire of class and high standards. I would analize the plot, but I couldn't seem to find one when I was watching it.
Rating: Summary: Made the Super Friends Cartoon Look Like Shakespeare... Review: Only redeeming aspect of the movie was the cameo made by Gov. Jesse Ventura. What happened to the Dark Knight? Who decided to bring in the Dick Tracy color and the horrible story. Alicia, she's pretty, but she's no batgirl. Get someone who has some athletic ability please!
Rating: Summary: Total Rubbish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Review: This is probably the worst movie I've ever seen,but people who luv special effects,cos that's all this movie is.It's so unrealistic! I mean, Gotham City has more statues than St Petersburg!!! In my opinon, the guy who thought up this movie is a homicdal maniac and should be thrown in Broadmoor at the first oppertunity
Rating: Summary: 100 megaton bomb of a movie Review: I resisted seeing this movie in the theatres but finally broke down and rented it on video. I had heard it was bad but nothing could prepare me for the sheer stench this movie gave off. Being a big Batman fan (Tim Burton's version anyway) this just disgusted me. With the kind of budget B&R had and the quality of the actors there was no excuse for this travesty. Bad plot, hokey acting, stupid dialoge. Errh! Just makes me mad thinking about it. Undoubtebly one of the worst movies I have ever seen. Joel Shumacher should be banished to Siberia!!
Rating: Summary: Watch Spawn instead Review: Batman and Robin was an extremely corny and dumb movie. The acting was poor and the story was even worse. The usually good Joel Schumacher hurt the movie with sideways camera angles and a fake looking Gotham City. George Clooney isn't quite as good as Val Kilmer as Batman and is nowhere near the standards of Michael Keaton. And why is Bruce Wayne looking cheerful?! The only reason he became Batman in the first place was because of his parents' deaths. He seems to have forgotten they were deceased. It's hard to believe the movie's budget was 110 million dollars. I hear Schumacher wants to place an unknown teenage actor as Batman/Bruce Wayne for the next Batman movie. That is only going to make the movie worse, and with an unknown actor, the movie might not even gross 30 million dollars!! For a much better (although not excellent) comic book movie, watch Spawn, which has a better plot and great special effects on a much, much lower budget.
Rating: Summary: Avoid this movie like the plague Review: DO NOT BUY THIS MOVIE!!!!! I REPEAT. DO NOT BUY THIS MOVIE. heck, don't even watch it!!!
Rating: Summary: A review from Mr. Entertainment Lover Review: This Batman isn't as good as Batman Forever but it is good never the less. Clooney seems to do a better job than Kilmer. The film is very entertaining from begining to end as Batman and Robin have to save Gotham City from Mr. Freeze. Other parts of the movie are emotional and almost make you cry like the near death of Alfred. My only complaint is that Robin is sort of a jerk in this film and gets on your nerves. Still it is a worth see for Batman fans.
Rating: Summary: Goodbye Batman and thanks a lot! Review: This is the worst movie ever!Stupid expressions,awfle special effects,far to casual acting, thumbs down music, bad directing, the movie was taken far too far, unoriginal, just plain dumb!
