Seinfeld was right.

Rating: 8/10 (7 May 2008)

So George was wrong. Tony Stark does wear clothing under the armor. I always hoped he was naked. Oh well.
Iron Man was a weird time. I enjoyed it overall quite a bit, but there were moments when I just didn't give a damn.
My issues are minor, but for nit-picking semi-comic book nerds, they are just.
My earlier comic book experiences with Tony Stark gave me a completely different impression. Stark is more of a gentleman like character. And though Downey had to include his attitude into the role, it still worked.
One thing I did not care for in the slightest was the News Reporter gal. Her role was annoying (I get it), much too distracting and just a weak part of the script. And she never got her "come-up-ins". Stupid chick even interrupted when she wasn't supposed to! She should have been booted outta there!
There were a couple talky parts, I suppose to add depth to the friendships, but overall they were just boring and felt unneeded. Again, minor issues that don't take anything away from the main aspects to the film.
But the action, special effects and acting by Downey and Bridges were all really good. Actually it may have the best effects I've seen yet in a super hero movie. But ya can't forget about the effects in Howard the Duck. And Favreau did a decent enough job as well.
Overall, this should be a really fun on-going Marvel movies series. If you want an entertaining, great looking action flick, look no further.
