I am the Iron Man

Iron Man (2008)

Directed by Jon Favreau this comic book adaptation stars Robert Downey, jr. Terrance Howard, Jeff Bridges and Gwyneth Paltrow. A playboy head of a weapons firm gets to see the other side of his business.

This is the film that kick started the Marvel cinematic empire and it is easy to see why as this is a well constructed film with a decent heart to it. I think a longer cut might have worked better to explain the motivations of the villain better but otherwise this is a good super hero film. Casting Robert Downey jr. in the lead is what made the piece as his charisma is what holds the whole film together.


4/5
