I went to see Iron man last weekend and I must say I was positively surprised. I went with my girlfriend's son, age 13. The last movie we saw together was Transformers - I think he liked that one better than I did.
Iron man however suited both of us. It is well made, well acted, funny and exciting. Robert Downey Jr. does a great job portraying Tony Stark. The plot… yeah well.. hey it's about a super-hero, so you basically figure out the most of it pretty early on. It's not exactly Memento but it doesn't matter. One of the best action movies this year so far!
I give Iron Man 4 out of 5.
