Batman & Robin

In order to cash in while Batman was still hot, a fourth installment was whipped up with plenty of campy dialogue, corny action sequences and lazy story lines to criticize a decade later. Even the title of the film itself couldn't be more unoriginal. Clooney replaces Kilmer who replaced Keaton — couldn't you tell this was a lost cause? Schwarzenegger gets top billing (à la Nicholson in the original), but the interesting casting and live-action adaptation of Mr. Freeze is too laughable and unrealistic to even deserve the slightest compliment. Even the rest of the all-star cast, especially Thurman as Poison Ivy, is too unbearable to watch. Schumacher has even gone on record to apologize for this disaster of a film, acknowledging that an extra year would've made a huge difference — and his self-awareness earns him some sympathy. Just look, each of the previous Batman films had a three year gap between… except this one. It was rushed… probably due to greed. This is what happens when greed takes over an art form, and watching as the film crumbled one horrible scene after another is somewhat satisfying because you're watching a money-hungry production plummet.
