Horrible

Rating: 2/10 (15 September 2008)

This is another "run-off-the mill" marvel/superhero movie without ANY new twists or any originality.
The plot could have been written by a 6 year old.
Take known elements off robocop, terminator, spiderman and mix it together to make a "new" movie where everything is ultra-predictable, except that those other known" superheros like robocop or terminator are certainly better in their class while the iron man just excels in mediocrity.
The main character has not enough charisma to be like-able by the audience, unlike a hero, say "spiderman" with its weaknesses and odd characteristics. The story line is simple and, excuse me, not logical or credible.
The only good part of the movie was the special effects, mainly the scenes with the iron man flying...but there are other comparable movies where such things have been done better already.
Of course...since we're dealing with a "run-off-the-mill" superhero movie...add the obligatory villain end fight...add some non-logical solution so our "hero" at the ends prevails ("just push the bypass button")...villain dies....and everyone can go home happy after wasting two hours with this Luke-warm re-wash of things we've seen 100 times already. What about such a movie should be worth giving it 8 points? Nothing. This is a movie you should go to if you are 10 years old, your grandparents just gave you a movie ticket for your birthday and you really don't have anything else to do for an afternoon.
