Great visuals, story delivers no surprises
In truth, any opportunity to see the film on the big screen is welcome.
If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.
The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
Iron Man works because of two reasons- The storyline flows smoothly, and the powerhouse performance of Robert Downey Jr. as the titular Iron Man/ Tony Stark. The charisma of Downey Jr. coupled with a great emphasis on character development makes Iron Man one of the best Superhero avatars of all time. The non-suited human element of a superhero film should be interesting in someway be it his sorrow or travails or in his embodiment of a larger than life, cool figure, and this is a fact many films do not foresee, or even realize. Jon Favreau has crafted a great movie and Robert Downey Jr. is so good you cannot picture anyone else play him. The film is fun in a charming way and the action pieces are embedded to flow the story, and not as a stopover for special effect show-off. The side parts are played well by everyone involved from Gwyneth Paltrow to Terrence Howard. Its been ten years since Iron Man was released and so much has happened both in his journey and the ascent of superhero movies but the first film remains a pinnacle.
This movie shows the hate terrorists have for us and what President Donald J Trump, Andrew Scheer and Premier Ford have to do. But the purity of The United States of America forces is shown as diluted. Sad, very sad. terrorists have strapped on hateful bombs and are after us and only our might will stop them. MAGA
Great movie that really launched the Marvel series. A must-see!
One of the best movies Screenplay and direction awesome also the foundation story of how Iron man is born
