Best Marvel Comic-book Movie!

Rating: 10/10 (14 May 2008)

This movie truly captures the nature of the comic book. The story works, of course, it's not identical, but is a great adaptation, and is interesting even to people who have never heard of the character.
The characters are wonderfully performed, Robert Downey Jr IS Tony Stark, such a great talent, this man rocks! Gwyneth Paltrow is a terrific Pepper and the chemistry and sexual tension between them really works.
The movie industry's purpose is to entertain and this movie goes way beyond that...
It's a awesome ride! The special effects are mind-blowing and the cinematography is great.
I remember really enjoying the cartoon while growing up, thank you Mr. Jon Favreau for making the film adaptation making me feel as excited as I did back then. THIS IS ONE HAPPY FAN!
