Merely great superhero movie
PostedJune 22, 2008

Either you like or don't like superhero movies - so if you don't, try and act surprised - the Incredible Hulk is a superhero movie. Living in the house that the first Spiderman movie built, Hulk is a worthy entry but it is dwarfed by its younger brother, Iron Man. In a world where average students actually get C's, Hulk is definately a B, maybe even a B+. I had a few complaints about the movie - during the Brazil sequence, the camera was too tight all the time; and each scene in Brazil probably could've been 10% shorter without any loss - nothing that makes the movie bad, but definately knocks it out of Iron Man's league, and makes me not feel bad about not giving this a B+. Still; I have no regrets about spending money on tickets for this movie.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Best Superhero Movie Ever
PostedMay 4, 2008

To be honest, I hate how every "new" movie is always the best this or that; so it is no mean feat when I say Iron Man is the best, to date, superhero movie. I suppose I couldn't in all honesty say the movie never dragged, but I'd dare anyone who enjoys the genre to say they could finish counting to ten before any scene overstayed its welcome (well, excepting perhaps one, but that was less drag and more a question of stomach for gruesomeness).
I wanted more lines from Stark, I wanted more time with Iron Man on screen, I wanted more of the villains, I wanted more interaction, I wanted more everything. Nothing in this movie disappointed, besides, I suppose, actually dropping the name of the big villain (and on a scale of one to ten, that's fanboy all the way).
First movie I've seen in theatres that I'm honestly considering to see a second time... in theatres. And my major concern - that they'd overuse or underuse the music - completely not an issue. This movie is masterful on all counts.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
