A good sequel

Iron man 2 is a strange comic sequel because it is not bad at all like some sequels, nor is a great. It just a good fine sequel, not overly special but certainly enjoyable to watch. The action is well done, the actors all do fine jobs, and the story is fine although possibly a little too relaxed at times. There is never much of a sense of urgency. Also Mickey Rourke's villain seems to be a background character too much, and his motivation is there but not really all that fleshed out. Still he is a fine villain, and the film is fine it just is not that special either.
