Im not gonna start here by telling you what the movie is about. chances are you have seen it already, but if you havent then get the f*ck up and go because its pretty bad ass.

Robert Downey Jr captures Tony Stark to the letter and does an excellent job expressing the self absorbed, over-confident weapons tycoon. we dont get to see the red and yellow armor til towards the end, but dont worry. its still awesome. they have hints dropping in the movie for later installments in the franchise as well such as war machine and the avengers(sam jackson as nick fury after the credits)

the humor expressed in the film was pretty much perfect. in that i mean that it was not too much nor too little. ie the entire testing period tony attempts at trying to master flying. it gets pretty damn funny

the only thing i didnt like was obediah played by jeff bridges. his acting was decent up until he became the iron monger. for example; when he speaks while in the suit, his voice is mixed with the robotics and it sounds really stupid. plus the stuff he says is cheezy adn i blame the director for not picking this up and fixing it.

but other than that, we have an excellent movie here people.

we got hot girls we got battling machines, death to alotta terrorists and a whole lot of action.

the verdict:

4.5 stars overall and about an 8.5/10

    Good review. Haven't seen the movie yet, but I might tomorrow. I like characters that Robert Downey Jr. plays too, so I expect this to be even better.

    And what the hell is the deal with these weirdos making detailed vulgar like comments that are irrelevant to the review? The only thing you all agree on is "JR loves men."

    if you call 8.5/10 suffering...it think i did it justice with my rating. and i think bridges was deec up until he got in the suit. he said TONY too much. as if we didnt kno who he was talking to the whole time

    i have to only disagree with the Jeff Bridges comment. He did an overall good job and the whole movie didnt suffer because of it. the movie was really good though.
