Iron Man was able to "steel" my attention within about 19 seconds as the glorious 80's tuners blared through that boombox in the humvee. I felt like I was there (until people started getting killed; from that point I became a comfortable viewer). Robert Downey Jr. was the casbah-rcoking protagonist, a cocky middle-aged weapon specialist who after getting captured by a group of "terrorist-esque" forces learns that his life's work was being used for the bads. He spends a lot of time with his little robot buddies building a nifty suit made of gold-titanium alloy that allows him to fly to Kmart and buy DVD's as soon as they come off of the truck. All in all, fantastic flick; I would recommend to a friend or an animal.
