Iron Man Review

Rating: 10/10 (6 May 2019)

Iron Man is a spectacular movie, he has a very tense atmosphere with sensational action scenes, there are several iconic scenes as the whole part of his escape from captivity, he is testing the classic armor is incredible, where it renders several moments very amusing, great highlight for the first missions, there is that scene where a tank shoots him, he only gives that one diverted and then he sends a missile ... he does not wait, he turns and walks .. Hell Yeah! Another great highlight is the final scene of the movie at the press conference, I think it's just brilliant! And we have the first post-credits scene that Marvel Studios has popularized in their movies, which is when Tony learns about the Avengers Initiative. And Iron Man, of course it has a great cast:
Jeff Bridges makes Obadiah Stane, who is the villain of the film, a very good acting that works very well, in fact, is an above average villain by the standards of Marvel Studios, which has always been his weakness.
Terrence Howard does James Rhodes, who knows the character knows that he would eventually become the War Machine, but not in this movie, Terrence was replaced in the next film, so he was not even War Machine, had even a teaser in this movie. His acting is Ok, do not compromise.
We have the participation of Clark Gregg as agent Coulson, a character that always appears in Marvel movies, and also has a more important presence in the series Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Gwyneth Paltrow is very much like Pepper Potts, a prominent actress, the character fits nicely into her, and all her interaction with Downey Jr. makes for very funny times.
And speaking of him, of course the biggest highlight is for Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark / Iron Man. One word: Sensational! It's the role of his life, and for me it works very well because it's natural, I've been following Downey Jr.'s career for many years since Air America in 1990, and if you follow the old films of him that are going to be found various traits of Tony Stark. So I say it's so good because it's natural, but it does not diminish at all because the guy's performance is sensational, high point of the whole MCU.
Overall, we have this sensational movie, Marvel Studios beginning and showed the standard of the Marvel movies would have from here, that is a spectacular production with great visual effects, great action scenes and very good performances. I certainly consider it one of the best superhero movies ever made.
