 Not as bad as everyone says November 15, 2008
I gotta say this movie aint the worst movie ever but it aint the best either. From most review the reviewer will say this movie sucks because the Batsuit has nipples and Batman mentions Superman and has a Bat credit card. George Clooney isnt that good as Batman but Chris O Donnel is good at being Robin. Arnie as mr freeze is just great fun i mean everyone will disagree with this but i rather like his jokes theyre good fun at times theyre only hated because they have something to do with ice. Anyway this film great for kids and good if your not a hard core Batman fan like me. So all in all i say if your a hard core Bat fan ignore this film but if not its OK
 Just plain awful!! August 17, 2008
I am life long Batman fan and this film made me feel physically sick and almost brought on tears of despair. There is no redeeming features in this movie and should be deleted from existence. Thank goodness the new films have shown how to really do Batman. I feel I may have wasted my time even lowering myself to comment on this piece of trash. Just don't ever buy this film. It deserves negative stars.
Truly terrible. May 9, 2008
I have been known to watch some rubbish but this one I walked out on. It has to be the most embarrassingly, cringeworthy film ever made. Don't let a great cast fool you. Awful! Lol @ "Who gave it 5 stars?"
Honestly not good...at all March 5, 2008
Lol, who gave this five stars? To sum up, of all the things that are good, this isn't one of them.
 Mindless fun February 23, 2008

I really quite enjoyed this movie. Its completely over-the-top bravado impressed me. Be warned though, if you take Batman seriously then you shouldn't watch. But for the majority of us, the non-anally retentive people, then this movie is a lot of fun and well worth a rental.
The villains were very cool in this one, and we had FOUR!! Arnie got better as the film went on. He was a real hoot. Uma was totally over-the-top and crazy as Poison Ivy. She was funny and extremely hot! There was also Bane as Ivy's sidekick who was funny whenever he appeared even though (and probably because) nothing he said ever made any sense! Then there was Bane's creator, Dr Woodrue played by John Glover with probably the best performance of the film. I wish he could have been in more of it.
The heroes weren't so flash though. Alicia Silverstone was spunky as Batgirl but the title characters, Batman and Robin as played by Clooney and O'Donnell were pretty lame. Batman was made to say too many corny one-liners. This should have been left to the villains, it suits them. It definitely didn't suit Batman. Robin was just flat out annoying. Michael Gough as Alfred actually gives quite a good dramatic performance in amongst all the campiness, I'm not sure why he bothered.
The SFX were great. The weren't at all realistic which was the way it was intended to be you fools! The whole film is dazzling on the eyes, whether it be the sets or the aray of good looking actors and actresses. Too put together a film of this large of a scale is quite an achievement. Anyone who says that Schumacher isn't a good director, doesn't know anything about directing films.
This is definitely one of the best no-brainer films of recent years. To all you people who are pining for the miserable Burton Batmans, get stuffed. Burton made his two movies, if you like them so much, then go and watch THEM. Schumacher has now made his two films to appeal to a different audience. Now it's probably time to see what someone else will do with the franschise. I can't wait.
