Clooney's Son Finally Sees 'Batman & Robin': Actor Reacts - entertainment news

George Clooney, known for his iconic roles but perhaps most famously associated with the 1997 film *Batman & Robin*, recently shared his son’s reaction to finally watching the movie for the first time. The film, widely considered a critical and commercial disappointment, has long been a source of amusement for Clooney himself.

Clooney starred as Batman in the Joel Schumacher-directed film, which also featured Arnold Schwarzenegger as Mr. Freeze and Uma Thurman as Poison Ivy. The movie received overwhelmingly negative reviews and is often cited as one of the worst superhero films ever made. Despite its reputation, Clooney has often poked fun at his involvement in the project.

During a recent interview, Clooney revealed that his son had finally requested to watch *Batman & Robin*. While the details of the son’s reaction weren’t fully disclosed, Clooney’s comments suggest a humorous and perhaps somewhat bewildered response, mirroring the general public’s sentiment toward the film. This marks a significant moment for Clooney, as it represents his son’s introduction to a chapter of his career he has often addressed with self-deprecating humor.

The actor’s willingness to laugh at *Batman & Robin* has endeared him to many fans, demonstrating a sense of humility and perspective. His openness about the film’s shortcomings has helped to soften its legacy, transforming it from a symbol of cinematic failure into a source of lighthearted entertainment and a testament to Clooney’s enduring charm. The film's impact on the superhero genre, however, remains a topic of discussion among film enthusiasts.
