Every aspect of this movie was brilliance from the casting, the soundtrack, the direction, the imagery and the story. AS a fan of Ironman the subtle twists from the original comic was done in such a way that it really brought some much needed story updates for today. It was a pleasure to watch from the opening credits all the way to the very end scene with Samuel L Jackson after the credits. And Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark, WOW, he did a phenomenal job portraying Tony in such a way that was all the reasons why I love Ironman and am forever a fan of Ironman. Then there is Jon Favreau's attention to detail in his direction was truly amazing. He was able to capture the very humanity of Tony Starks evolution from War Monger to Super Hero, it made it a truly brilliant movie.
