Robert Drowney Jr. rocked theaters last summer with the first Iron Man and dont think the second one will do any less. Im a little disappointed at the loss of one of thier cast members but hey its doesnt matter the script is still good and the action is sure to be good and and so should the special effects. We have all the team matchups from before like Robert Drowney Jr. with Gwenyth Paltrow and everything should line up into place for another blockbuster recommend you see this right when it comes out because it should blow moviegoers away again. Im excited and cant wait for this sequel to hit the silverscreen. See you there!

The story was interesting and kept my attention, but there was not as much action as I thought. But now I'm not sure if that is a bad thing. I like the fact that being a superhero does not have to mean kick bad guys for an entire movie. I also like the fact that we now have a superhero wth a fun and exciting personality outside of his costume.

It's rare to say that a sequel is better than the original, but Iron Man 2 improves on the original in just about every way. The plot is superb. We know who Tony Stark is and here we get to see a more vulnerable side to him, as we learn early on that something is wrong with him. The main villain in this film is much more menacing and believable, and is played brilliantly by Mickey Rourke. Another villain is Sam Rockwell playing Justin Hammer, a twisted version of Tony Stark. There's also Scarlett Johansson as the quirky yet likable Natalie Rushman (who has a secret of her own). My only complaint is the film feels rushed at times, and that major problems were solved too easily. Also, the humor got a bit too silly sometimes. If you're avoiding this because they replaced Terrence Howard with Don Cheadle, don't. Cheadle nearly steals the entire movie; he's that good. And then of course there's Gwyneth, who has a much more prominent role. Altogether, it's a great film and a great cast.

I got the opportunity to visit the Iron Man 2 set on May 1, 2009 and since I signed a confidentiality agreement with Marvel Studios I can't talk about what I saw that day but I will say this I can't wait until it comes out in May 2010. and meeting Robert Downey, Jr(Tony Stark) and Director Jon Favreau was an experience of a lifetime.

The movie keeps the light hearted fun tone established in #1 and adds some great new characters to the bunch. Favreau is able to once again create great chemistry among the actors that makes you feel like it would be a blast just to listen to the table reads. Downey is again brilliant as Stark copping with with his new superhero celebrity while also dealing with the after effects of having Palladium in your chest, Tony is slowly dying. This culminates in a hilarious party scene. Rourke makes for a great villain, and Cheadle does a fine job stepping in for Howard(not sure which is better), the best addition though is Rockwell who gives a great performance as a true Tony Stark wannabe. Favreau is hilarious as Happy Hogan this time round. Johansson is as sexy as ever as Natasha, and Jackson as Nick Fury feel like essential pieces to the movie instead of just fulfilling fans wants. Overall it's great, delivers even more of what we loved from #1 while upping the stakes (War Machine!).
