Outlandish and Fantastic!

Rating: 9/10 (10 September 2008)

Absolutely the best movie I have seen in ages.
Robert Downey Jr. does quite an excellent performance. Tony Stark is the perfect arrogant asshole you hate to love. Yet he is such a buffoon sometimes you want to smack him. Every second of this movie is a complete riot, well scripted, and the actors pull it off perfectly. The director delivers just enough action to make it entertaining and keep you on the edge of your seat, without overdoing it for as much a second. And the best thing? There wasn't a single "gotcha" moment that makes no sense, unlike some other comic-based movies that will remain nameless...
My favorite goof in the movie, though, are the monitors in Tony's basement with the Dell logo in the front and an Apple logo on the back, rofl. I especially enjoyed that little detail (though product placement rich) because I use an Apple computer with a Dell monitor and it gets me strange looks when everybody sees it ;)
The only thing this movie is missing is a bondage scene, Secretary style, between Tony and Pepper. You Know What I'm Talking About >;)
