Review: 'Batman and Robin' is a cold chill to bat fans

Batman & Robin   PG 13       

            Just when all of the fan base pretty much up and went with the last one, they up the ante with two villains in Batman and Robin, ignoring the fact that they horribly miscast Arnold Schwarzenegger as Mr. Freeze, which everyone with half a collection of Bat stuff knows that he's a skinny guy in the 60s, the comics, and the then current cartoon. Then they cast Uma Thurman who looks stoned and bored, as Poison Ivy, and they still  have nipples on the bat suits, and tight butts. And Alicia Silverstone can't save it. No. And just because George Clooney is a big star on ER is no reason to cast his mug as Batman. (Clooney)? He looks nothing like him. He acts nothing like him. In fact, he's bored. He can't even do brooding right. The guy talks to Val Kilmer like he is married to him. The jokes are horrid. Why are there jokes in Batman? This is '90s Batman not '60s Batman. Maybe they had considered Patrick Stewart for Freeze, the best choice, and he read the script and said, oh dear Lord no!
