Best Super Hero Movie Ever! ? ! ? !
Spider-Man 1 and 2, X-Men 1 and 2, Batman Begins...When each of those movies came out, all any one said was "Best Super Hero Movie Ever"
Then we had Hulk, X-Men 3, Superman Returns, and Fantasic 4.1 and 4.2 which pretty much all sucked.
So where can we place Iron Man? What will we say at the end of the movie?
Well anyone who watched Batman Begins and enjoyed it, would more then likely agree that it broke the mold of Superhero movies. You don't need to like Batman or Comics to have enjoyed Batman Begins. It was a great dark movie about revenge...oh and it was based on a comic.
Well Iron Man pretty much takes that whole idea, and blows it right out of the water.
Forget it's based on a comic and prepare to enjoy a really good movie. Excellent script, excellent action, excellent acting (of course 4 Oscar Nominees are the stars), and the effects and sounds make Transformers look like childs play.
I don't really know anyone who wouldn't like this movie. It has heart, it has action and it's bloody funny.
Like Bale as Batman and Jackman as Wolverine, there is no one else whould could have played the part of Iron Man. And since this is the FIRST Live Action Iron Man movie...EVER...Robert Downey Jr will forever be known as Iron Man. He played the playboy roll better then any one could have...he played the pain and hurt better then anyone could have and really makes Tobey's spirderman seem like such a freaken wimp.
I think so far, as comic book movies go...this was certainly one of the top 3 best ones to ever hit the big screen. It was the best 2hours I have spent in a theatre this year, and I would most certainly see it 10 times and buy it on Blu-ray and then buy tickets for the sequel weeks in advance.
I am hooked. I am an Iron Man fan.
Oh, and by the way...
BEST SUPER-HERO ENDING EVER!
TWICE OVER! (hint...stay after the credits)
5/5 Stars
