I'm sorry, is this really a movie?

Rating: 4/10 (7 June 2010)

Talk about lack of plot. This movie was more of an excerpt in an arbitrary part of Tony Stark's life in which he faces a MINOR foe that as well as an ill timed sickness than anything else. This movie was a big disappointment after Iron man 1's success, and as a big fan of the first and of the comic, I must say, this story was not worth the $170 million budget that they put into it. However, it achieves a rather successful gross at the box office because of the lack of competition. Wait until the DVD comes out. Jon Favreau, make Iron Man 3 about something like the first one was.
Tony Stark dismantles his opponent rather easily, and the movie's plot scenes are rather cliché (though of course the fighting is cool). Something more original than the father's movie tapes or finishing the bad guy with his new rival has to be done. (Sorry for my vagueness in this review, I don't want to spoil anything, but trust me, this movie is a major disappointment.)
