knows exactly what it is and provides on all fronts!

Rating: 8/10 (1 May 2010)

if you go into this film expecting Oscar performances then you are in the wrong screen room. however if you go into this film with the same child like excitement that you should have left with from the first then your going to be a happy paying customer! Robert Downey Jnr provides the same brilliant role of arrogance and one liners that allowed the original cartoon TV series fans to love the first film. the addition of new characters thickens may worry some avid fans that this maybe another Spiderman error, but this time round Jon Favreau has done a great job in keeping it simple (and delivering a great supporting role as the driver again)!! the special effects are very good, as expected, creating a well made film which knows exactly what is about and what it should provide in the cinema. for those of you that want to pick holes in the film then you can, but in the most part you are just fooling yourselves. this is hugely enjoyable film and one that fans of the first one should definitely go and see at the cinema.
go see it iron man fans!! 8.5/10
