IRON MAN (2008)

"It was worth watching, I enjoyed it!"

I certainly recommend this movie to all the comic book lovers out there!

The film "Iron Man" was action-packed,the visual effects were excellent, and the story was good. I think it went at a good pace. Tony Stark starts off as a rich arrogant guy. He is later kidnapped by terrorists. The terrorists force him to build them a smart missle. Instead he tricks them and creates his first iron man suit. But first he builds himself an artificial heart due to the injuries he recieved from an explosion. The artificial heart is also the source of energy for his suit. The suit he created helps him escape from the terrorists. He trys to fly away but his suit falls apart.When he returns home, he also realizes that his weapons are falling into the wrong hands. So he destroys the terrorists and his own weapons.Cancelling his weapon budget amazes everyone, and he begins working on a new suit.

However, I don't think Robert Downey Jr. pulled off being Tony Stark too well. In a way he looked like Dustin Hoffman from "Rain Man". In my opinion I think Keanu Reeves would've did a better job.

Whats Robert Downey Jr. good for? Besides being a crackhead?

Excellent film apart from the american propaganda against arabs that's getting a bit boring now. Seems that in order to get a decent budget for a film you need to have a few bad guys from the middle east.

For the past few years Keanu Reeves has been doing some spectacular movies, such as "Constantine" and "The Matrix Trilogy". I'm not a fan of Robert Downey Jr.

Good review until the last paragraph.
Robert Downey Jr. was phenomenal as Tony Stark, and please tell me you're joking about Keanu Reeves. Tony Stark is an engineering genius, not a surfer/stoner.
