Iron Man solid on big screen

A twist and a surprise. I'm not referring to the plot of Iron Man, but rather to it's star, Robert Downey, Jr. The concept of Downey, Jr. in any sort of propagandistic role seems in no way right. However, this role, with it's strong ante hero overtones is a perfect fit. Downey's character Tony Stark/Iron Man, is full of wit, one liners and comebacks. The delivery of this type of dialog is essential to the feel and pace of a film and it has been perfected here. Tony's demeanor is balanced out superbly by the chemistry between Tony and his ever loyal assistant Pepper Potts (Gweneth Paltrow). These two manage meaningful back and forth with obvious attraction without unnerving tension or innuendo.
The other big attraction to this movie is the effects. This movie recovers the long lost art of effects enhancing a movie, instead of ruining it. The SFX in Iron Man blends seamlessly with the charters and plot. It is almost as if the effect are part of the actors, rather than a charter of their own attempting to upstage the best Hollywood has to offer.
Over all the best movie I have seen in a really long time. I'm going to see it again. I highly recommend everyone else do the same.
