The trailers looked great but, sadlly the trailers were the best parts of the movie. It reminded me of elevator music beautiful but boring! A must see on TV or better yet on TiVo so you can fast foward.
I took the my kids (7 & 11) and their friends to see this movie and they all liked it. I even enjoyed it. If you like any of the other Dwayne (The ROCK) Johnson movies you will enjoy this one.
"Iron Man is a very well-written and well-planned action movie. The movie makes the characters fun and understandable to everyone (not just us comic fans). There's excitement, cool visuals and a lot of really genuinely funny moments that drive this movie.
Robert Downey, Jr. really comes through in his performance. Whether you're an Iron Man fan or a fan of Robert Downey, Jr., you'll really love his portrayal of billionaire playboy Tony Stark. I do not to want to leave out Jeff Bridges and Gwyneth Paltrow who both did a great job as well. Gwyneth, if you read this you never looked better!
I don't know what else to really say without talking about the plot or secrets or anything, so I'll just say few things: First, just go see it because you shouldn't be disappointed. Second, The device in his chest made no medical or even common sense (the weakest part of the writing). Finely, if you're a fan of Marvel Comics, make sure you stick around until the end of the credits!
