The movie itself is a very entertaining movie because of some of the action however there are some rather annoying bits to the movie such as Robin being a bit of a spoilt boy and Mr Freeze's cheesy puns ("it's time to cool off").
Overall brushing past those, this movie is a good enough movie but certainly isn't awesome. Joel Schumacher really tried but failed to succeed with making the Batman series a hit.
My son was after this film as soon as he first watched it. He loves his super hero films. The characters are brilliant,colourful and very imaginative. I think its an all round favourite if your a big superhero fan. Especially Batman. The actors were picked fabulously for this film. Uma Thurman and Arnold Schwarzenegger make brilliant baddies. I think its great introducing a female heroine into the plot too. I recommend this film to anybody who loves superheroes!
My little boy (and myself) are hooked on this film. It's excellent, we have watched it so many times and never get bored of it. If you havent already got it, buy it !
This is an excellent way to purchase DVDs for kids, as they are so cheap. Everyone knows how fickle children can be. They'll watch the same DVD on a continual loop for about a fortnight, and then show no interest for the next six months. They'll discover it at the bottom of the toy box and the cycle starts over again.
We rented the movie and my kids loved it so much we decided to buy a copy. Great film! Mr Freeze and Poision Ivy are great enemies of Batman and Robin and good to see Batgirl getting some action!
We bought this DVD to complete the set. The film was good on the whole, but much more aimed at the younger audiance and more cartoon orientated. This could be a positive and a negative point. For children who love batman it is much more watchable than the earlier creepier films, which is shown in its PG rating, for the adult audiance you have to switch your brain off!!!! It was a watchable film and quite entertaining, but lacked the substance of the previous batman films.
I bought this dvd as my 5 year old son is well into his super heros, i like it because it has provided my son with hours of entertainment. This was the start of my little boys batman collection!
It was for my daughter she is 2.5 and loves Batman I figured buying it on ebay I'd get it a lot cheaper just incase she moves onto liking something else!!
