 Great movie August 30, 2008
I loved it and I think it was the best action packed movie of 2008 beside Batman. Great acting by Robert Downey Jr.
best action film of summer '08 (besides Batman) August 26, 2008
next to the Batman film (Dark Knight), Iron Man was by far the most enjoyable action film of summer '08. Great cast, great script, interesting CGI, well-acted and directed. I actually had FUN watching this in the theater. The action scenes with Iron Man in flight were awesome.
Downey Jr. adds just the right touch of humor/anger in the role, and Paltrow has never looked more beautiful.
I've heard the sequel comes out May 2010....I'll be the first one in line.

I'm not from SoCal, so I can't comment on the BK product placement (which was so obvious as to be perhaps intentionally ludicrous?) I would definitely go for In-and-Out waaaay before BK, whether or not I'd been in an Afghani cave for 3 months.
I've never read the comic book, and never been that much into them anyway. This is definitely not the semi-plausible superhero (Batman) nor is it the completely implausible (X-Men). That leaves the techno-superheroes: Iron Man. I'm not sure which I find more implausible. But I must admit a buff Robert Downey Jr. is better eye candy than Toby McGuire. That, of course, could easily lead to a super-hero comparison via the eye-candy factor.
What seemed a bit lurching was the pace of the beginning and end. The beginning is slow, but not unpleasantly ('get to know the cast of characters and understand the hero's tragic flaws'). But it seemed to be rushing towards the end - fast paced action, sure - but this seemed like someone abruptly realized it was already min.120 and counting, and had to hurry to end it. Sad, because I was still enjoying it.
Downey was spectacular as the nascent superhero, developing the new suit. A childish joy immediately squashed by Newtonian physics. Childish, yet thoroughly amusing consequences (several squashed cars).
Script? ok
Direction? ok
FX? good
Robert Downey? totally makes the movie. He inhabits the part. Nothing else is really that spectacular, but you don't notice being so engrossed with him.
Elizabeth's rating: 2
The special effects are better on the big screen
Great Movie! August 25, 2008
I believe Iron Man is the best movie of all the comic book movies put out to date. I know many people will disagree with me, but I believe it has a wider appeal than a Batman movie. I've seen this several times in the movies and loved it. Widescreen will be mandatory for watching. Otherwise, great acting, interesting story, and it's fun (which is something you cannot say about Dark Knight). It's great to see that Robert Downey Jr. got himself straightened out---he really makes the movie.
 1 Disc, 2 Disc edition, fullscreen? August 23, 2008
0 out of 12 found this review helpful
The 2 disc edition says widescreen and no spanish subtitles, the single disc says spanish subtitles and wide screen, but doesnt specify..good formats are 1:85 and 1:78, almost fullscreen. I hope they consider that before its released. Why 2 disc and single disc editions if both are widescreen?.....why not fullscreen and widescreen editions for those who like it?..something to please everyone. Great movie though.
