Outstanding!

I am not really a huge fan of the comic-book- come- to- life genre, and generally go to appease my husband. However, I must say, not only does this film personify excellence in its genre, and it simply a wonderful film. The cast is truly outstanding. I am a big Robert Downey, Jr. fan, but probably wouldn’t have given his name a second thought had it come across my desk as the casting agent for this film. Boy, would I have been WRONG. Jeff Bridges is simply wonderful as the villain, and Downey and Paltrow generate real chemistry on screen. Wonderfully snappy dialogue, with a main character in Tony Stark who is actually compelling – you aren’t just enduring him until the next Iron Man scene. I wanted to know more about him. Jon Favreau’s direction is truly exceptional, exhibiting a real “tastiness” and flair that most of the comic book/action films simply don’t. I am very happy to recommend this film to anyone, and I will.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
