Have seen the film with my 11 and 13 year old boys, I felt obligated to title my review with their's. It was everything one needed from a big-budget-ultra-hyped-comic-book-summer blockbuster. Lots of fun, action and a great story. It's nice to see Robert Downey Jr. come deliver a portrayal of Tony Stark brings a complexity and depth to the thrill-seeking playboy that made the movie more than anyone could have hoped. Gweneth Patrow left a little something to be desired as Pepper Potts, but then again, I've never been a big fan. And let's not forget our villain -- nasty, conniving, double-crossing Obidiah Stane (Jeff Bridges). As we see Stark transform from an irresponsible, fun junky to a hero set on saving the world, we see an equal and opposite reaction from Bridges' character. Bridges brilliantly weave's the threads of deceit and treachery into his character like a master creates a tapestry. Giving the viewer a new discovery with each passing scene. Bottom line, don't miss it. And one little spoiler, stay throught the credits.
