A worthy sequel in the Iron Man franchise. While the story does lack some originality, fans of the first Iron Man should enjoy this as well. As is typical in superhero sequels, here our hero has lost his way and has to be pointed in the right direction again to serve the greater good. A minor complaint with Sam Rockwell's character, who was allowed to chew way too much scenery that got pretty annoying very quickly. Mickey Rourke and Scarlett Johanssen are great additions to the cast. There are lots of great action sequences, a deepening of the plot between Tony Stark and Pepper Potts, and a great Easter egg after the credits which should please Avengers fans everywhere.
