The only reason they made this film was for the, "bat bucks."

I don't usually make a comment on a movie, unless it's really good. But from time to time, I like to WARN people from watching any movie that would insult their own intelligence or perhaps lower their IQ due to viewing the film. The actors must have been embarrassed beyond belief! Everyone (aside from the actor who plays "Alfred") seemed to be mis-cast. Ok, Chris O'donell did a very bland acting performance in Batman Forever, but that's nothing compared to this film. And what in the world is Arnold Schwarzaneggar doing in this movie? Why, why, why, why, why?! For the money, of course. His acting has never been something to applaud, plus he was given very VERY few lines at all throughout the movie, and YES... most were ice puns.

Let me just tell you, I had no idea how many puns you could say that refer to ice until I watched this movie. They're giving Arnold lines that are too close to the kind Jim Carrey (The Riddler in Batman Forever) would say. Arnold is NOT a comedian and can NOT say these lines so that they're funny. His character is one-hundred and twenty one times different than that of The Riddler. PLUS, all he does is destroy things, freeze things, and say stupid.. *ahem... STUPID puns. "cool party"

Alright, now who cares about Uma Thermon. She's good looking, but come'on.. that's about it! And as if Arnold didn't have enough puns, every other character (including Ivy) decide to use stupid puns. Robin himself asks if she'll, "turn over a new leaf." geez.. how pathetic.

Then we have Clooney, good job. He did very well (but not that that's much praise in this film). Val Kilmer did a faithful job as Batman in Batman Forever, but Michael Keaton is always to be known as the best.

In short, they put the wrong bad guys in the film (although Mr. Freeze had a lot of potential, they screwed the character up) and Poison Ivy has never been a very popular or interesting character. As of this writing I can not remember what the storyline was, it was very forgettable. Save yourself both time and money... and stay far, far away from this movie.
