Inder Nagra Iron Man 2 The movie Iron Man 2 was directed by Jon Favreau and released in 2010. Robert Downey Jr returns as billionaire Tony Stark in this sequel. Micky Rourke plays the role of the villain as Ivan Vanko. Sam Rockwell plays as Justin Hammer who is Tony's competitor and makes weapons and sells them to the government. Don Cheadle plays the role as James Rhodes who is a friend of Tony Stark and also a lieutenant of the US Army. Scarlett Johansson plays the role as a black widow who is the secretary of Tony Stark and later helps him fight Ivan Vanko and Justin Hammer. Gwyneth Paltrow plays the role as CEO of Stark industries.
Iron Man 2 just about pulls it off, but only just. I would give this film a 7/10. It's a strangely paced film and suffers at times from incredibly long exhibition and poorly unrealistic story lines that seem to be added to no doubt develop the revenge storyline rather than the Iron Man 2 story that I wanted to see. The acting of both Tony and Ivan at sometimes are very poor. However rest of the Iron Man 2 was spectacular in places such as the action scenes, the visual graphics and the costumes and in general fun and entertaining. Even though there were boring, pointless and highly confusing moments in the film.
The story of the film is of Tony Stark's fight against The US governments attempt to obtain the suit for themselves for the military, Justin Hammer's company developing their own suits to rival Iron Man, Ivan Vanko's revenge mission on Stark as he claims his father was the one who designed the Arc Reactor Technology and that Tony's father Howard Stark stole it from him which is all bundled together with the plot of Tony's Arc reactor which is keeping him alive is also poisoning him and he needs to find a solution, which comes in the most ridiculous and confusing way possible. The genre of the film is action, adventurous, sci-fi and fantasy.
