Synopsis:
After a weapon demonstration in Afghanistan, Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) was kidnapped and forced to build a deadly weapon. With a mini reactor inside his body, he build a body armour suit to escape back to America. After announcing that Stark Corporation will no longer build weapons, Tony refined his suit. Unbeknownst to him, it was his right hand man who wanted him dead. With the help of Pepper Potts (Gwyneth Paltrow) and his friend Lt Col Rhodes, they managed to stop his evil scheme.
Review:
This could be one of the best marvel hero movies I've watched. The character of Tony is a smart, witty playboy. It was fun watching his character played by Robert Downey Jr., who has been absent for a while. Gwyneth Paltrow plays his beautiful and loyal 'sidekick', providing most of the 'blonde' moments. It's amazing how she is able to run so fast in her high heels. There are quite a couple of humourable moments such as Iron man trying to control his flight, which kept the show fun and exciting. The design of the armour suit is slick and cool, making me jealous of the technology. While this is the introduction of how Iron man comes about, I am definitely waiting for the sequel.
Rating:
4/5
