Everyone already knows that guys who were into comic books as children will love this movie. From a female perspective (who only went to see the movie so I can drag him to see Se* and the City in a few weeks) I have to say it was very enjoyable. I expected a whole movie about iron man fighting the bad guy, but it had very funny moments, action packed moments, a love story - the whole nine yards. It was a pleasant surprise. If your husband wants to go see it go ahead - you'll enjoy it and then you can drag him to one of your movies later.
