Listen you must see this movie. It was even better than what i thought it was and i thought it was going to be great, but it turned out to be fantastic. You must see this movie. The CG (computer graphics) were great. It had action and explosives with comedy and romance. Which is always a perfect mix no matter how you look at it. Iron Man fans will fall in love with this movie. If your not an iron man fan, i bet after you watch this movie you will change your mind!!!!!

"Iron Man" was a huge surprise to me. I was reticent to see it, but then I saw it...again and again and again. Robert Downey Jr is one of the best actors and put him in the suit of a superhero that mirrors his entire life and you get one of the best actions superhero movies ever made. It was brilliant in filmmaking and storytelling. The writing was excellent and it all came about with ease.

This could turn out to be one of the great superhero franchises, that is if it goes on. A fantastic adult oriented hero move, not one for kids like the Spider-Man series. It's not Batman, but it is a great film.

Iron Man... so far, one of the best films of this year in my opinion. I was very impressed with how good... and really funny this movie was. This movie was intertaining until the very last scene. (Sadly I missed the scene after the credits) Totally worth seeing once and again.

The television ads put this movie in a stage of injustice. I frankly still wanted to see it. So I did. It was hyped incredibly. And the hype was deserved. Iron Man, is simply the best superheroe film I have seen yet. It just beats out Batman Begins, which was a surprise. The suit was kick-ass. Robert Downey Jr. Somehow pulled off playing Tony Stark, and he did a hell of a good job doing it. The special effects were great, and overall just one of the many epics of 2008 so far. Though the villains didn't really develop, or create some spark or rivalry. Still, not too many cons to complain about. Pure Marvel Brilliance. FINAL SCORE :::: 83% ::::

Superhero movies are all the rage right now, and if Iron Man is any indication of how all the films will be, they should be. Most action films throw in a ton of CGI and other cool effects, hoping that audiences will ignore the bad dialogue and acting. Iron Man combines the best of both worlds, with good acting and a solid script as well as exciting action sequences. Robert Downey is perhaps the best choice for a leading man yet, exploding with charisma as he portrays the smart and cocky Tony Stark who changes his life after surviving an encounter with Middle Eastern terrorists. Iron Man is one of the best experiences I have had in theaters this year, and deserves a look as the kick-off to the new Marvel Comics universe.

It is that good. I know what you're thinking: "Another movie that will flop for me personally after reading this guys applause for the movie." Truth is, this movie will stand on its own no matter what I say about it or what anyone else says about it. If you have not seen this movie, then you need to stop pandering to the usual excrement pile of a movie by Adam Sandler. Go and see Iron Man. And then you will want to see it a second time. That's the only downside to this movie, you'll want to see it in theatre more than once. Robert Downey Jr delivers an excellent job in the role of Tony Stark. Other noted actors make inspired appearances, notably Gwyneth Paltrow, Jeff Bridges.

All I can say is Great Movie! You need to go see this movie in the theater as soon as possible. Jon Favreau has done a great job with this movie, or as I am guessing,soon to be franchise. I am sure there are some parts of this movie that were not great but they were over shadowed on my mind so much by the multitude of things that were great they don't even count against the movie. The acting, the story, the cinematography, the special effects, and the directing, there was no part that wasn't done great. If you like action, comedy and just a splash of romance this is the movie for you. If all the summer blockbusters could be this good it would be a great summer.
