not bad!!! downey made it

Rating: 7/10 (1 May 2008)

this movie is predictable at times and i didn't like the pacing,but it doesn't mean its a bad movie, i liked it!!! being marvel studios first attempt at producing their own franchise into film... i think they did a good effort, although i think this movie was made not only to tell of ironman's origin but also serve as a prequel to an avengers movie. great visual effects although i wanted to see more.. robert downey jr. is tony stark!! he did the part so well the same way chris reeve did superman or michael keaton was batman.. i did wished for mandarin to be in it but i guess they wanted it to be more realistic but there were the terrorist group called the "10 rings", i think this sorta represented the mandarin or a kinda like a reference to the villain, well anyway right now, im more excited about an avengers movie than an iron man sequel just bec of ultimate nick fury's cameo..
