The perfect balance of action and story

Rating: 10/10 (6 May 2008)

Jon Favreau brought the right balance of action and story with his direction of the film. All the top billed stars delivered believable performances and characterizations. Downey was awesome in the lead role of playboy/genius/hero. Jeff Bridges as the business partner with his own hidden agenda was well portrayed. Gwyneth Paltrow didn't overact as she has sometimes been prone to. The CG and effects were outstanding, without overpowering the movie. This could be the best superhero movie ever. I'd recommend this as a definite must see film for Comic and action hero fans as well. Looking forward to this being a new franchise.
