Elevates The Comic Book Genre, Great Film


I love this quote by Robert Downey Jr.: “I can honestly say that Tony Stark is the coolest character I’ve ever played. If I look at anything, it’s the mythology that has grown up around him and how I can use that to raise this movie to a really high order of art.” Mission accomplished, Robert. IM1 took the comic book genre to the highest level and IM2 builds perfectly upon the first film. Downey and Favreau again deliver a movie with as much feeling as it has action and intensity. In fact, the action is taken to the next level while sacrificing none of the complexity or heart that made the first film an instant classic. I totally agree with most who are STILL raving about Iron Man 2.

Compared to the crap DC is churning out, YES this movie elevated things. Yet, Marvel took it to far higher levels since the release of this movie.
