Ironman

Story: Billionaire industrialist Tony Stark builds a high-tech suit of armor and leads a double-life as the superhero, Iron Man.

Review: This is the best Marvel comic movie yet. If your looking for a fun, riveting, action pack story, look no further - "Ironman" will not disappoint. Other Marvel comic's like "Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer" and "Spiderman 3" are flops at best. "Ironman" has a strong story and beefy characters. I think Gwyneth Platrow's character, Pepper Potts was refreshingly different from the run of the mill leading action love interests. Tony Stark, could only be played by Robert Downey Jr. Is art imitating life or vice-a-versa? Also Jeff Bridges', portrail of power hungry Obadiah Stane, was to smooth for words. "Ironman," starts off in an unique spot and keeps us there for awhile, which I think makes the movie richer for it. If you want good quality entertaiment, "Ironman" is your best bet for action flicks right now. But who knows for how long, cause "Hulk" may give "Ironman" a run for its money.
