| Posted by: MadsenOMC at May 24, 2008, 12:46 pm | | Topic: Iron Man Forum: JoBlo | | SPOILERS! This is a fun movie. I was able to shut my brain off and enjoy it. Downey, Jr. is as good as advertised, the action scenes are exciting and kinetic, and the score is fantastic. It's not perfect. The story beats are predictable. Of course Bridges is the main villain, of course he'll realize he loves the long-suffering assistant, etc. Paltrow is pretty bad and the blossoming romance is weak. I was also disappointed in the villains. Namely, the bald Middle Eastern guy (he might as well have cackled and twirled a mustache) and Bridges (who spouts off all the normal villain lines at the end of the movie). They're just not memorable and the kind you love to hate. They're routine. Overall, though, it's a great summer movie. It moves along quickly and it delivers the goods. It's cool watching him develop the first suit in the cave and then the enhanced suit at his (spectacular) house. It's satisfying watching him return to the Middle East and kick ass. It gave me my money's worth while also leaving me wanting more. It's definitetely at the top of the superhero movie list in terms of quality. I liked it more than most and I look forward to the sequel. 7/10 |
