8. Batman and Robin

There have been numerous Batman adaptations over the years, but only one deserves to be called the best.

Batman and Robin is a masterpiece of subtlety, from the soft, unobtrusive backgrounds to the understated characters. It takes several viewings to understand the tableau of personalities that back each of Mr. Freeze’s scenes. He’s a note-perfect translation of the classic villain from Batman the Animated Series.

George Clooney’s performance as the Dark Knight is very clearly the best and most nuanced ever. He simply embodies exactly the kind of movie Batman we’ve waited to see. Dark, brooding, in no way loaded with subtext.

And the costumes! So realistic. If Batman existed in the real world, this is exactly what he would wear. It’s practical, yet cool-looking. And totally scary.

I know that if I saw that costume flying at me on ice skates, I would surrender at once.
