Ironman

I was planning to see it just because his suit looked so damn freaking slick- and not care about how plot driven it was. I was totally in for a pleasant surprise! Robert Downey Jr was an excellent lead, bringing a humorous, but slick flavour to ‘Ironman”s personality.

It was so full of grunt, slick cg, and fun fighting. I loved that the Middle Eastern guys were automagically made the bad guys, and there was none of that metaphorical tosh mixed in. I don’t even feel the need to pick it apart; it was a film made to be entertaining, and not meaningful or touching. It’s just a rich genius who builds a sweet suit, blows shit up, and saves the day. Totally worth a second or third helping.
