This is one of the best superhero movies so far.
I’m not sure what it is about superhero movies. I was so familiar with the Spiderman origin story I found the first Spiderman movie somewhat dull. Here is the big probem: You have to be loyal to the superhero source material, but then you risk boring the biggest fans of the material. I wasn’t as familiar with Iron Man, so I enjoyed seeing the story come to life.
Robert Downey Jr. is an excellent Tony Stark. Where most superhero movies are speical effects bonanzas, this is more of a character driven story with great visuals of giant robot fights. Good fun!
Stay to see the end credits: great easter egg at the end.
