Our Take On The Iron Man Film Part 2 Tina's Take! (Note: We will be reviewing the screening of this film separately - We will attempt from posting any spoilers!) Back from the May 2nd 2008 Iron Man Film Screening! "Two Thumbs Up - Both of mine" says Tina! I love a good origin movie (think Spider-Man 1 and Batman Begins, as opposed to The Incredible Hulk.) And, this is a good origin movie. The character development was involving and entertaining. Robert Downey Jr is spot-on as the snarky playboy. It's a dream cast of Academy Award winner and nominees. The story is well played. We walked away feeling that we saw a movie - an action movie - not a "comic book" movie. For me, the casting of Terrence Howard seemed a little off - who knew Rhodey was a metrosexual - but Howard does a fine job. Favorite scene: when Iron Man fires up in the red and gold for the first time - it's exhilarating. Favorite movie moment: Stan Lee's cameo - watch for him on the red carpet at Stark Industries' charity event. Best line: the last line of the movie. (I won't ruin it for you.) One final note: The picture is rated PG-13. I would strongly caution parents to leave the young ones home. While much of the violence is off-screen. You know people are being killed; you don't see them dying. However, there are two rather disturbing torture scenes - definitely not suitable for young ones. Overall, I enjoyed it! Tell us what you think if you have seen it!
