Wonderfully cool and absolutely accessible; a perfect recipe to introduce a superhero I never really cared about as a child, but now cannot wait to see a sequel. After countless failures in the Marvel movie making business with the first Hulk, Fantastic Four, and the monstrosity Ghostrider, it seems they are now taking the realizations and molding it into something grand. Iron Man definitely lives up to the hype, with Downy Jr. delivering a fantastic performance, provided with a reasonable plot, and accompanied with downright breathtaking CGI. Sure, I will say the progression was much slower than I expected, but the overall execution equates to one of the most entertaining thrill rides this year. 8.5/10.
