20 Worst Performances In Superhero Movies

8. Alicia Silverstone (Batgirl) - Batman & Robin

Almost everything sucks in Joel Schumacher's Batman sequel, yes, but of the eleven Razzie awards Batman and Robin was nominated for, it won only one: Worst Supporting Actress for Alicia Silverstone's performance as Barbara Gordon aka Batgirl.

For starters, Silverstone isn't remotely convincing as a schoolgirl, she doesn't even try to put on an English accent despite apparently living there, she's got zero chemistry with anyone she interacts with on screen and looks absolutely ridiculous in the Batgirl outfit, especially when fighting.

Some claim the film's infamy torpedoed Silverstone's career, but given how ill-judged her work here is, she's plenty responsible on her own.
