This next installment in the reboot of Captain James T. Kirk, his point-eared hobgoblin, and crew does not disappoint. There is everything we can expect from any Star Trek film: action, drama, moral dilemmas, and more.
Take the time to see this movie! It will not disappoint you. Whether you are a fan or just getting acquainted with the crew of the Enterprise, this movie will keep you on your toes and keep you guessing throughout the film.
Pros well paced, great story, great actors, badassary
"Iron Man 2" not only meets but exceeds expectations. Robert Downey Jr. brings back Tony Stark for round 2 in a jaw-dropping and eye-popping adventure, that will have you counting the days down until Iron Man 3. There is more action, more comedy, and a stronger cast than the first movie. Don Cheadle was a wise choice for Lt. Colonel James Rhodes, and did not let down audiences after replacing Terrence Howard from the first film. He is War Machine, just as much as RDJ is Iron Man.
Scarlett Johansson as Natasha Romanoff was phenominal as her character gave Pepper Potts (portrayed by Gwyneth Paltrow) a reason to stick out more and become more involved with Tony Stark.
Mickey Rourke's Whiplash was great to watch. His character rivaled Downey's in this film as Ivan Vanko is portrayed to be much more of an equal (had brains and 'brawn') than Jeff Bridges' Obadiah Stane we saw previously. It was releaving to see such a villain who was more open throughout the entire movie with his motives and still maintained the power he did.
Overall this is a movie that will have fans and non-fans both thrilled to come back for rounds 2, 3, 4, and beyond. I know I will be back to my local theatre this weekend to catch an encore.
