Yeah, it was great. It wasn’t Spider-Man 2 or X-Men 2, but it was a great action movie. And forget the special effects, Gwyneth Paltrow’s wardrobe alone makes the movie worth sitting through.
I left this one out of my post yesterday, but apparently Rachel McAdams was originally Jon Faverau’s first choice for Pepper Potts. I think we won out here.
Anyway, I’m late to the party on this one, I know. But it was a fun movie. Now I just need to figure out how I’m going to get to see Hellboy II, The Dark Knight and Wall-E, and I’m all set for summer movies (Hulk I can wait for on DVD).
Iron Man was definitely a great movie, slightly unrealistic, but at least they managed to push the limits of the imagination up to the point where I was wondering how much it would cost to develop a body armor like that.
