Warning don't read unless seen episode.
This really is my favorite episode of this show, and on further note it was the first episode I saw of the Nostalgia Critic. Yeah, I was one of the unfortunate people that saw this film in the theaters, I really wish I didn't; I wonder what else was playing at that time, should've of saw one of those films instead.
I've seen my share of bad live action comic book adaptations which were numerous at the time, let alone bad sequels. This film is just the absolute definition on bad comic book adaptation and sequel in general. And for the record I'm a fan of the "Batman" franchise, Batman is one of my favorite fictional heroes, so you can imagine how much disappointment we suffered.
It is so much fun seeing Doug just roast this film, he is just at his best under the worst possible circumstance; he has so many funny lines and moments that to me are just comic gold. From the very beginning he takes out some hidden cyanide capsules and when he sees some of the first clip, he attempts to put them in his mouth, yeah Doug I don't blame you.
But the highlight is when Doug he then sees that dreaded (do I dare say it) Bat Credit Card. I remember when I saw that for the first time I thought "What the Hell!", I still can't believe they used this sight gag I know that the 60's Batman is know for having sight gags but that just fell completely flat and out of place. Doug, we see just completely flips out and it just gets funnier as he recovers but then relapses several times.
And of course, there is that final song he sings which I'll just say sums up the time watching the film perfectly. Yeah, Batman and Robin was a terrible film but at least we good one of the best episodes of the show.
Rating: 4 stars
