Batman and Robin - A decent movie, but nothing too special
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.

Always liked the movie & wanted it for my ever-growing DVD collection. I like getting DVD's since most of them come with extras & all kinds of tasty tidbits you never knew about the movies. I'm a big George Clooney fan too boot. When there's nothing to watch on TV or there's sports on almost every channel it's nice to have a bunch of good titles to put in the player & we can have our own popcorn & movie night.
This movie was a disgrace to both filmmaking and Batman. Why? To start off, the movie was saturated with corny lines, such as "Take two of these, and call me in the morning" or "Never leave the cave without it" (while flashing a batman credit card). This movie was, to me, just a way to market toys and had no pretense of actually being a good film. As I mentioned in the title, I disliked Daredevil and Hulk. However, I would give both of them two stars just to save the one star rating for Ultraviolet and this trash. Joel Shumacher should have stopped with Batman Forever, but he didn't and now I have to shudder everytime I walk past this movie in the stores.
