Review

oh this movies is in imdb.com’s top 250, what a fucking surprise. their top 250 is so fickle it’s ridiculous. this is one of the better comic book films i’ve seen in recent years. not as good as the new batch of batman films, but better than spider-man, fantastic four, and some of the others. robert downey does a solid job in owning the two sides of the persona. gwyneth paltrow plays tony stark’s assistant perfectly – just like a comic book assistant might be depicted. come to think of it, this is one of the more comic book feeling comic book renditions that i’ve seen. i wasn’t a fan of the iron man series so i can’t say how faithful the film is to the original source, but they pulled off the comic book feel fairly well so kudos for that.
