Breaking the Superhero Movie Slum

I work at Blockbuster and have been an avid movie-goer from a very young age. Also, I do read comics, specifically Marvel, and hopefully you will find me credible.
For me, Iron Man was extremely enjoyable. Robert Downey Jr. played a superb Tony Stark, both entertaining as well as true to the comics. Most folks I've spoken to have agreed. The CG was top-notch and the storyline was well thought-out. It was very fun to see Stark's progression into becoming Iron Man. Geeks will absolutely love this film due to it's ability to fit right along-side the greatness that the Iron Man comics possess.
If you're looking for a family-friendly film, I've got to tell you that this is a pretty good dead-on PG-13. It can get a little racey and violent at times, but what's a good superhero movie without that kind of realism?
This movie goes right up there with the first Spider-man, and has broken the superhero slum that has been created with movies like Hulk and Fantastic Four. I reccomend that you see this. I feel that most people would enjoy it, and it is worth the money you'll pay for the ticket.
Remember to stick around after the credits. Fellow comic geeks will get a great kick!
Yes, I recommend this movie.
