The first movie is over-rated in my opinion. Sure the effects are well done, and Downey Jr is always likeable but that doens't make a good film. The sequel however, is even worse. It has potential, Mickey Rourke looks awesome as Whiplash but he's hardly even involved in the whole film, instead its meandering chatter about self-discovery and father-son relationships stop the film dead. Director Jon Favreau is not a director, the film has no style whatsoever and having 3 action scenes in a comic book movie just isn't good enough.
