Synopsis
This was the third follow-up to Tim Burton's Batman (1989), the original revisionist look at the Gotham City legend, as well as the second in the Batman series directed by Joel Schumacher and the first featuring George Clooney as the Caped Crusader; it features not one but two super-villains, and a new heroine to fight crime alongside Bruce Wayne (aka Batman) and Dick Grayson (aka Robin) (Chris O'Donnell). The experiments of Dr. Victor Fries (Arnold Schwarzenegger) to preserve his late wife cryogenically have gone horribly wrong, turning him into the evil genius Mr. Freeze, who must keep his body at sub-zero temperature in order to say alive -- and he wants to put Gotham City on ice. Shy horticulturist Pamela Isley (Uma Thurman) goes a bit wild with a Venus Fly Trap-like creation she's been working on and mutates into Poison Ivy, who wants to kill all the people on Earth so plants can take over. Can Batman and Robin stop these fiends before their plans go too far? Meanwhile, Bruce and Dick's faithful butler Alfred (Michael Gough) isn't feeling well, so his niece Barbara (Alicia Silverstone) comes to pay a visit. When Barbara finds out what her uncle's employers do in their spare time, she decides she wants in on the action, and she joins the crime fighting twosome as Batgirl. Batman & Robin also features Jesse Ventura in a small role as a prison guard; it would be his last film role before becoming Governor of Minnesota in 1998. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Classic
A Masterpiece of Ingenuity
April 13, 2015The greatest superhero film ever made is finally on Blu-ray! I am an avid fan of Batman, and let me tell you, no other adaptation of the Dark Knight comes close to the brilliance of Batman & Robin. Schumacher is a creative genius. And the Batsuits? Far out, dude! Cowabunga! Geronimo! Haha I love it when Robin surfs in the beginning, it's one of my favorite parts. And how can you compete with Arnold Schwarzenegger as Mr. Freeze?? Certainly not Heath Ledger. Did Heath Ledger ever freeze anyone? I think not! If you loved Django Unchained, Spice World, and the Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, you're going to love this movie. Fun for the whole family!

Abomination
December 26, 2009There is nothing wrong with this as a product, every issue I have experienced with this product is with the "movie" itself. Terrible, I have never wished that I was deaf and blind at the same time except for ten minutes into my first viewing of this "movie".

Unintentionally nostalgic
September 10, 2017This movie may have killed the movie franchise, but with a eye on it today, it strangely honors the 60's series.
