Much Weaker than the First

So I liked the first one but I just didn't see anything in the first one that was in this one. Yes RDJ is still a great actor and does an amazing job. Most of the characters do a good job as well. Favreau does a great job on the minimal character development.
But the story is pretty damn lame and so is the villain. I was never scared of Mickey Rourke nor any of his minions. He did a fine job acting but I felt the direction and plot were extremely week, very much told before, and did nothing to enahnce the series. I am not sure I can actually recommend this movie to anyone other than 4/4 of the original iron man.
If you thoght this was going to be much like the Dark Knight, better than the first, you are way off. I like what marvel is doing with their characters, but not this one.
