The adaptation of this comic to the movie marks a slight turning point for the genre since Marvel is directly at the controls as producer. Jon Favreau, actor more-or-less well-known is in charge of the staging. In the cast, one finds Robert Downey Jr in his best form in billionaire hedonist. He brings all this that the few fans ofIron Man was Tony Stark. In the blonde of service, Gwyneth Paltrow fresh out of its break fits perfectly in the role. On the other side of the force, Jeff Bridges wears a shiny skull. Places the champion californian laziness, it attempts to portray a wrong is a bit out of nowhere. Its interpretation is correct, but the character itself is to be reviewed.
Iron Man is in the middle of the last Batman, Spiderman, X-Men or Hulk this family film big-budget and abominations such as Daredevil or Ghost Rider. In the clear, we want more !
The big downside of this film is in the scenario. Fans of the super-heroes, all the same glad to have Downey Jr, weep not to see a sudden challenge rather than a hero actually tortured. Others see it as mostly a good entertainment that loses a bit of speed in the middle of the ride, but corrects itself in the end.
The other hand, it may be noted that with the current events, Stark does not create his armor in Vietnam but in Afghanistan. Other complainers baba will say that the film is also a vindication for the USA, its military, and the cheeseburgers but let’s be serious, this is Hollywood !

The producers have already started to make a shit sequel and Robert Downey Jr is starting to resume. In addition, with the great works of Marvel to set up The Avengers (Hulk, Iron Man, Thor and Captain America), Iron Man is not ready to leave the dark halls.
Finally, Iron Man is in the middle of the last Batman, Spiderman, X-Men or Hulk this family film big-budget and abominations such as Daredevil or Ghost Rider. In the clear, we want more !
