Profile of Batman & Robin

Batman & Robin can be described as stylized and rough. The plot revolves around secret identities, superhuman powers, and superheroes. The main genres are fantasy, action, and crime. In terms of style, Batman & Robin features an all-star cast. In approach, it is fantastical and serious. The movie has received attention for being a blockbuster and an award winner. Batman & Robin is well suited for a date night, a family outing, and teens. Note that it involves violent content.

Summary of Batman & Robin

The Caped Crusader returns to battle the abominable Mr. Freeze and green-thumbed Poison Ivy. To save his ailing wife, Dr. Victor Fries turns to a life of crime after a hideous accident makes him unable to tolerate even moderate temperatures, while Dr. Pamela Isley falls victim to mutated plant DNA when things go awry in a jungle laboratory funded by Wayne Industries. Of course, though their interests are diametrically opposed (Freeze wants another Ice Age; Ivy wants to make the world safe for plants), the two villains team up to defeat Gotham's dynamic duo of Batman and Robin, who are joined by butler Alfred's motorcycle-obsessed niece as Batgirl. And when Alfred is diagnosed as having the same terminal disease as Freeze's wife, the trio find themselves not only fighting an altruistic battle, but a personal one as well. A frenetic, colorful, and often overwhelming sequel to "Batman," "Batman Returns," and "Batman Forever."

Critics Reviews

San Francisco Chronicle
It's the lightest of the Batman movies, the most cartoony, the dumbest and the least ambitious. But it holds the audience's attention, brings on a few laughs and never really gets boring.
TV Guide
It's a gee-whiz kiddie movie imagined by pervy grown-ups who get a giggle out of mixing bloodless fight scenes with close-ups of rubber-wrapped butts and baskets.

Users Reviews

Great movie, its an instant classic. Arnold Schwarzenegger put in both laughs as well as a thrilling, dramatic performance to counter the greatest protagonist team ever, batman and robin. theres plenty of adventure to go around as we follow this...
I had to write a review about this after seeing all the bad ones. First the bad. The script was terrible and Batman and Robin and the villians are all not very cool in it. However it has some decent, though over-campy action scenes and many witty,...
