Love it or hate it, this film’s extra cheese now has a shiny, new 4K transfer: and it is sharp! This won’t convert anyone who hated the film before, but the new 4K transfer plus the remastered blu ray disk (only available in this combo pack) make it a worthy addition to your library. There’s an enormous amount of extras, too, so it’s worth every penny to upgrade if you haven’t done so recently.

I'm reviewing the 4K presentation of the movie, not the movie itself. It looks pretty good, but some of the colors, specifically reds and blues have a "bleeding" effect like in Batman Forever, but here there's more of it, again probably due to all the neon lighting used in the production design. Other than that, it's a decent 4K presentation.

Synopsis: Chills and thrills: will Gotham City be put on ice? George Clooney is Batman as the dark knight battles his greatest threat yet: cold-hearted Mr. Freeze (Schwarzenegger) and venomous Poison Ivy (Thurman). Batman has more than Gotham City to protect: the youthful eagerness of crimefighting comrades Robin (O'Donnell) and Batgirl (Silversone) puts them frequently in harm's way. New very special effects include a wild sky-surfing sequence and Freeze's outrageous ice-blasting arsenal. It's state-of-the-art excitement from out Batfamily to yours.

Let’s face it: Batman & Robin is the unsightly blemish in Batman movie history that nearly killed the franchise for 7 years. But even with that said, there’s a lot in this movie that makes it an enjoyable Guilty pleasure. And with all the Batman movies now remastered in gorgeous 4K, you really need to have this one in your collection to really make it complete. Since the movie was shot on film, the transfer is gorgeous and the sound is superb. Definitely worth grabbing if you have the other movies on 4K too.

There's really no sugar-coating just how bad this movie is. Fortunately, this is another stellar UHD and the soundtrack's Smashing Pumpkins tune sounds great in Dolby Atmos!
