Batman and Robin Movie Review
This was a highly anticipated film for its time, but soon became the one movie we all wanted to forget. Batman and Robin was the fourth Batman film made in the 90's and was hands down the worst. When I began reading through the list of cast member's I saw George Clooney and Arnold Schwarzenegger and thought well that's an interesting combo. Both great actors just not right for a Batman film. George Clooney plays Batman in this film and wow is it a lower quality Batman. A giant leap down from Michael Keaton's previous performances. If I ever see George Clooney's name under a super hero film, I will probably burn the Studio making it to the ground. I have a genius idea lets get a petition started stating that George Clooney should only do stupid movies about a guy taking a plane on trips. Next lets talk about Mr Freeze played by Arnold Schwarzenegger one phrase describes him " Ahhhh my wife she is frozen ahhhh". Half the time I don't know what he is saying. I look up quotes from this movie and they have Mr Freeze quotes, well I don't recognize any of them. I like Arnold Schwarzenegger in other movies such as: Kindergarten Cop, Twins and Terminator, but his role in this movie is just awful. Frankly the story they have for him is all about how he is trying to save his wife and after seeing this movie I'm sick of hearing about his wife. Guess how he covers up the pain of losing his wife, he has his henchmen perform the Ice Miser song from a Year Without Santa. I know whenever I'm upset I smash a beer bottle and dance in an abandoned barn but that's just me. Along with the crappy acting this movie also has a terrible plot believe it or not. Poison Ivy is the main villain in this film and she is really pointless. Now Ivy couldn't do it alone so she gets bane to help her. Bane is a masked wrestler on steroids that never speaks all he does is grunt and punch. Other than the obvious problems Bane is a side kick in this film even though in the comics Bane is just as smart and stronger than Batman. In addition I normally like the Batman costumes and gadgets, but every costume or weapon seemed to come out of party city. I mean really if Batman were to walk out at night with that on he might gain a few guys phone numbers and could become a human disco ball. Also look at Batman's chest its like he is wearing a skin tight shirt not armor. I understand freezes layer was cold but seriously you could cut diamonds with his nipples through out the entire movie. In conclusion if anyone says to you oh lets watch Batman and Robin its a great film, you should probably shun them for all of eternity. Also if you ever say George Clooney was a good Batman you should personally apologize to everyone who has ever played Batman. One thing that could have made this movie experience a lot better is either burning every copy of it or adding having batman and every villain die within the first few minutes. My rating system allows me to only go as low as 1 out of 10 but this movie clearly deserves a -1 out of 100. So save yourself about two hundred brain cells and don't watch Batman and Robin.
Bwahahahahaha
