So I saw this movie in the theater and just got the DVD for Christmas so I thought I’d make a quick post about it.  I was incredibly impressed with the job Robert Downey Jr. did in the role.  His portrayal of Stark was great in this movie.  He played the role of a shocked ego manic that realized that he had a profound impact on the world and with all his riches he could make a difference.  The great irony I saw in this movie was he used his great fortune to fight his own weapons that made him that fortune, sort of a twisted loop.

Now the fx in this movie were excellent the Ironman out fit and Iron Monger were phenomenal.  Of all the superhero movies that have come out lately this was my favorite (ok maybe Dark Knight was close too).  The CGI was very well done and I almost believed a man could build a suit like that and trounce around the world.   A couple of things will make more sense if you watch the deleted scenes, like how did he go from Malibu to Afghan without being detected.  But even with a few questions the movie had a good story line and has now begun to build the ground work for the Avengers.

I’ll give this one 4.5 outta 5 stars.
