Batman and Robin I'll be honest, I was extremely dissapointed with this Batman film. The choice of villains keeps getting worse. I don't feel that Mr. Freeze and Poisin Ivy are good Batman Movie Villains. The cast does a great job and the addition of Batgirl is a great one, but the film follows the Batman Forever style too much. Still too cartoony and flashy for my tastes. Final Verdict: 3/5 Rent or Buy?: This one really depends on your tastes, I don't own, and never really think about it. Rent it first to refresh your memory before buying it. IF YOU FIND THIS REVIEW HELPFUL PLEASE REMEMBER TO VOTE. Thank you.
Batman Ad Nausea Joel Schumacher, the director of Batman Forever, takes the helm to bring us another installment of the Batman quintology. It is, without a doubt, once of the single worst representations of the comic book-to-film genre. The visuals are overwhelming, using a combination of dark shadows and blazing neon color that induces a headache. It is as though Gotham City is an undying rave, complete with black lights and glowing body paint. Chris O'Donnell's corny Robin has about as much intelligence as a Bobblehead, though credit for that goes more to the scriptwriters than the actor himself. His opening gambit is the words, “I want a car. Chicks dig the car.” Duuuuh. Arnold Schwarzenegger provides and element of comic relief, but it's very low brow. One example is Dr. Freeze quote, “Take two of these and call me in the morning.” Why did Schumacher spend tens of millions of dollars to bring us dialogue one step above knock-knock jokes? Alicia Silverstone's character Barbara/Batgirl provides an interesting plot twist, but not enough to save the story. The main disappointment, however, is Batman himself. George Clooney's Batman is hardly the dark night of DC Comics; Schumacher’s Batman resembles a pastel, melancholy hero you would find in a Good Housekeeping novelette. Contemporary, bland trust issues centered on Robin replace the internal torment of the DC Comics’ persona. Batman isn't concerned with his parent's death; he's too busy battling Poison Ivy's pheromones, rehabilitating psychopaths, and trying to play Batdad to Robin's delayed teen angst. As Clooney says to O'Donnell in one scene, "Friend, partner, brother... will you trust me?" If you are looking for a kinder, gentler, emotionally sensitive hero, then perhaps Clooney’s Batman is the bat for you. As for me, I felt like throwing up. Batman Begins with Christian Bale is a much tighter parallel to the original DC Comics. The movie Batman and Robin is a polar opposite, having more in common with the Care Bears than criminal psychology. Even though I watched this movie in the interest of comedy, I found myself groaning more than chuckling. Skip it. The best part of this film is the previews.Read full review
The DVD played without any problems. I enjoyed the movie very much. I had not seen it in the theatre so It was a good chance for me to finally see this movie.

Star studded cast George Clooney as Batman, Chris O'Donell as Robin, Arnold Schwarzenegger as Mr. Freeze, Uma Thurman as Poisen Ivy and Alicia Silverstone as Bat Girl. Some twists on the comic book plot make the story work.
