As a result, it had a shocking script, some sleepish performances,
frenzied pacing, and a dull overcoat. In short, it sucked.
This time, George Clooney - so very, very wrong - took on
the role of Batman. Arnold Schwarznegger hammed it up as Mr.Freeze
and Uma Thurman sexed it up as Poison Ivy. Even Alicia Silverstone
joined the gang as Batgirl while Chris O'Donnell returned
as Robin.
Oh, and making their first appearance in the franchise: the
bat-nipples.
DVD Extras
To go on any more about this junky sequel would be only giving
it more coverage, so let's make this short: The film looks
and sounds good - but who gives a hoot - and Schumacher's
commentary is as mediocre as one could expect, having experienced
his so-so chat over Batman Forever (1995).
"Shadows of the Bat: The Cinematic Saga of Batman, Pt.
6" is easily the best thing on the disc. Here, we hear
from everyone involved, notably Schumacher, on what actually
happened with the film. At least they're honest...
In addition, there's interviews with the "Heroes"
and "Villains" of the film, a music video, and an
airplane sick-bag for later (well, there should be).
Conclusion: Movie 15% Extras: 50%
