This superhero adventure finds Batman (George Clooney) and his partner, Robin (Chris O'Donnell), attempting to the foil the sinister schemes of a deranged set of new villains, most notably the melancholy Mr. Freeze (Arnold Schwarzenegger), who wants to make Gotham into an arctic region, and the sultry Poison Ivy (Uma Thurman), a plant-loving femme fatale. As the Dynamic Duo contends with these bad guys, a third hero, Batgirl (Alicia Silverstone), joins the ranks of the city's crime-fighters.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Joel Schumacher's tongue-in-cheek attitude hits an unbearable limit in Batman & Robin resulting in a frantic and mindless movie that's too jokey to care much for.

3/5
An amiable, almost farcical Batman episode, with George in Nespresso mode. Go to Full Review Jason Bailey Flavorwire Jun 18, 2017
Schumacher is like a bad stepdad who thinks we'll love him if he just feeds us candy all day. (Yes, Burton is the daddy in this metaphor - the manic-depressive, annoyingly emo daddy.) Go to Full Review Joe Morgenstern Wall Street Journal Jun 18, 2014
Of all modern Batmans, George Clooney bears the closest physical resemblance to the comic-book hero, but there isn't much to say about his performance because there isn't much performance to discuss. Go to Full Review Ian Thomas Malone ianthomasmalone.com Apr 23, 2026
Schumacher’s homoerotic toy commercial is a messy ride, but there’s so much joy to be had in this masterpiece of camp. Go to Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy Nov 22, 2025
1/4
About as much fun as a 20-year stint in a Turkish prison. Go to Full Review Trace Thurman Horror Queers Podcast Dec 12, 2022
2.5/5
It's not good, but it's not the total disaster its legacy would suggest. As an ode to the Silver Age of the Caped Crusader, it gets a lot of things right, but the pacing grinds to a halt any time one of our heroes is on screen. Thank god for Uma Thurman. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Bakercakes May 26, 2023 It pains me to write this, as I’ve been a Batman fan since I could first remember, but this movie is borderline unwatchable. Everything from the script, to the way it’s shot/edited, leaves one wondering what the Hell everybody involved with it was thinking, as it was being made.
