Marvel never had it so good!

Rating: Null/10 (29 October 2010)

With every Marvel outing getting bigger than the previous, its raining gold for Marvel & the creator Stan Lee. And how can a talented Robert Downey Jr. abstain himself from the mass hysteria. He plunges into the cattle-race donning the mask of "Iron Man".
"Iron Man" delivers goods to the delight of the fans. The plot undergoes makeover for contemporary times thus making it easy to relate. As with any Marvel comic it has complex protagonist narrating a tale of transformation into a super-hero. Robert Downey Jr is impeccable, but was he warranted in the super-hero race? Your guess is good as mine. Jeff Bridges leaves an impact as the second in command. I could not recognise Gwyneth Paltrow who played the love interest. Shaun Toub & Terrence Howard lend adequate support.
Background score is engaging, editing is slick and direction first rate. Of course CGI, aplenty.
