Robert Downey Jr. is quite perfect as Tony Stark and completely steals the show (as it should be). I think this is the only movie where Paltrow wasn't annoying but actually cute as Pepper Pots and the rest of the cast was all-around great, right down to the cheesy villains that seem to belong in the comic-book universe. The storyline is predictable but the flow never lets you go with almost every scene asking and getting your full attention. My favorite part: the return to the Middle East as Iron Man, by far the best action sequence and the race with the jets that ensues was a great capping off and final injection of adrenaline. The flaws include the predictability of the story-line and the poorly done finale with Jeff Bridges which felt a bit anti-climatic after a couple of really great action scenes through-out the movie. Not the best superhero movie of all time, but definitely in the top 5, just for having the best casting choice for the hero next to Hugh Jackman as Wolverine and the high level of consistent entertainment that balances action and humor impressively. Kudos to Favrau for pulling it off. 7/10 Ps: If i was any kind of fan or knew just a tad more about Iron Man before watching the film I'm sure i would of enjoyed it even more, especially the bonus scene featuring Sam Jackson as Nick Fury. It was just cool seeing Sam Jackson in a good looking role again, even if it was for 10 seconds... |
