Batman & Robin
Starring: George Clooney, Chris O'Donnell, Alicia Silverstone, Uma Thurman, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Michael Gough, Pat Hingle and Elle Macpherson
Genre: Action/Crime/Thriller
Rated: PG-13
OK the first 2 Batman movies were good, the third one with Val Kilmer was OK but this movie is the straw that broke the camel's back. OK so in this movie, Batman (George Clooney) and Robin (Chris O'Donnell) are now going up against Mr. Freeze (Arnold Schwarzenegger) who is trying to turn Gotham City into an iceberg with the help of Poison Ivy (Uma Thurman). After the first battle with Freeze, Batman and Robin's partnership becomes tense to the point where they try to battle out by going their separate ways. This movie includes the debut of Batgirl (Alicia Silverstone), the one thing that they missed up is that in this movie that said that Batgirl is Alfred's niece when in the comic books Batgirl is the daughter of Commissioner James Gordon. I also thought that this movie concentrated more on special effects, bad casting and cheesy one liners instead of focusing more on better writing and a better plot. What they thinking by casting George Clooney as Batman!? Same with Arnold Schwarzenegger as Mr. Freeze when Patrick Stewart or Anthony Hopkins would've been a better choice for the role. I also remember reading that there would've been a sequel to this film called "Batman Triumphant" which was canceled due to the fact that this movie was a box-office failure, if they went a ahead and did a sequel to this movie they would've dug a deeper hole which was why it was best to put 80's - 90's Batman movies to rest.
