More action, but the script lacked the fun of the original

Rating: Null/10 (7 August 2010)

A great ride, more heavy on the action and off-color jokes than it's predecessor, but when it's summer sequel time, bigger is always better. Downey is again on the mark with his one-liners, and Rockwell was hilarious as a brown-nosing corporate pig. One main villain (who's not as comparable as recent comic book movie villains) fits his role nicely (Rourke is good at being cocky). However, I will say I though Howard brought more to the character of Rodhes' than Cheadle did, but it hardly matters when the War Machine armor is strapped on. Nevertheless, I really enjoyed the film and all the amazing action sequences it had to offer.
