Comic hero based movies have sort of taken on a new life in the past few years. Spiderman, X-Men, and Batman, have been able to go beyond the typical kid-friendly type genre, into something that's actually well-written and well-suited for adults. Iron Man was no different. Imagine Robocop, Batman, and the Terminator all in one! The movie took its time in developing the characters, added a touch of romance, packed itself with a ton of cool gadgets (gadget porn) that led to awesome special effects and action, and even added a little twist.
My hat goes off to Jon Favreu (director) for giving this not-so-popular comic hero a household name. I'd see it again! There is truly something deeper beyond the super powers of these characters that speak to each and everyone of us. How great is it to be the good guy?
