One of the Greatest Action Films Yet

Rating: 8/10 (13 February 2012)

Everything from character design to special effects is phenomenal. The narcissistic yet lovable genius Tony Stark is played with incredible skill by Robert Downey Jr. as would be expected of such an actor. The story line is believable and well done, which helps to make Iron Man one of the best superhero films of all time, alongside The Dark Night, which was released in the same year. However, aside from the quality of both films & the billionaire vigilantes who are the main characters they share little in common. Iron Man is upbeat and guarantees some laughs, and you won't find the same fun sort of action anywhere else. This is one film that's definitely worth watching.
