Excellent, with a caveat...

I relly enjoyed this movie. The acting, the CGI and the story line were all quite good. Of course, when basing it on C. S. Lewis, where can you go wrong unless you completely mess it up?
As stated by other reviewers, there are some very intense battle scenes. No 'blood and guts', but quite vivid otherwise, and perhaps a bit much for the very young viewers, as again stated by professional reviewers. There were a couple of younger children at my showing who were either disturbed or just restless by the length, so be warned.
About the only disappointment for me was a little bit of thread left totally hanging at the very end. Nothing leading to a sequal, just an untied thread which I will not disappoint readers by revealing. You will simply have to see for yourself. Go and see the movie to find out!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

This film was a real surprise to me. Instead of constant blow them up, etc, the movie really focused on the person, the motives behind the person and the real reason for his becoming 'Iron Man'. This is what set the movie apart. In Spiderman, for instance, it was a spider bite that turned him into Spiderman. He used the powers that he suddenly found he had. In this movie, the person purposfully becomes the superhero in order to undo what his company, through a rogue assistant, has done throughout the world. A real 'good guy/bad guy' movie and very well done.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
