Well, first and foremost I have never read an Iron Man comic book nor really know the plot so I was not sure what to expect. Would I have a ton of questions of who, what, where, when & why? Believe me the husband was prepared. Well, I had none really and loved the movie. Robert Downey Jr. was AWESOME. Loved the banter, loved the interaction. I am not really a Gwyneth Paltrow fan, but loved her role as well. I am entertaining the thought of going to see it again.
