BriliantEnjoyable, mindless, and very funny. Downey Jr. was surprisingly brilliant. Little plot or real substance but who cares, just fun hokum and the best film I've seen for a while. Recommended.
Even if you're not a Comic Book fan this is greatA really good film from start to finish. Even if you are not a comic book fan this is a great film.
Don't take it too seriously, just watch it for what it is.
Very enjoyable blockbuster, good stuffThis is great entertainment and I really enjoyed watching it. This is real fun and I'd recommend it.
Not a fan, but my 9 year old is! My then 8 year old dragged me along to see this. I'm a cynical, long-in-the-tooth 42 year old who doesn't have time to watch adverts much less a super hero movie. So yes, I found the story implausible and far-fetched, and would have fallen asleep if the music wasn't so loud......but my son LOVED it - and is now hassling me for the DVD which will be in his Xmas stocking.
So, if you're buying for a pre-teen they'll love it, but stick in the mud accountants like me won't!
A good film or a god mix of special effects and computer graphics ?Iron Man is a b-level superhero and this film is in line with the character. Very amazing scenes of GC and special effects, but the plot is poor (if non ridicolous) the cast is good, with Downey perfect for the role, but Paltrow and Bridges almost wasted. If you like superhero movies is better than Hulk (2003 ed) and F4 (one or two). But the film lacks of the complexity of Spiderman trilogy or the last Batmans. A good film for teen ??
