I am Iron Man,
By
This review is from: Iron Man (Ultimate 2-Disc Edition / Edition par Excellence de 2 Disques) (DVD)
Robert Downey Jnr is without a doubt one of the finest actors of this or any other generation. Problem is due to some personal problems in the past he wasn't getting the big roles anymore. The studio was reluctant to place him in the starring role of this movie... and then they saw his audition... HE IS IRON MAN!Without a doubt no other actor could have played Tony Stark better than Robert Downey Jnr and along with a very talented supporting cast (including Gweneth Paltrow, Terrance Howard and Jeff Bridges) plus a very talented director (Jon Favreau) this is Iron Man brought the life the right way! An action packed thrill stacked ride that any fan is guarenteed to enjoy! DVD Special Features include: Deleted/Extended Scenes: - Convoy Ambush - Craps Table with Tony & Rhodey - Tony & Rhodey on Stark Jet and Military Ceremony - Rhodey and General Gabriel - Tony Comes Home - Tony Begins Mark II - Dubai Party - Pepper Discovers Tony as Iron Man - Obadiah Addresses Scientists - Rhodey Saves Iron Man on Freeway - Rooftop Battle Disc 2 I Am Iron Man - Making Of: - The Journey Begins - The Suit that Makes the Iron Man - The Walk of Destruction - Grounded In Reality - Beneath the Armor - It's All In The Details - A Good Story, Well Told The Invincible Iron Man - the History of the Character: - Origins - Friends & Foes - The Definitive Iron Man - Demon in a Bottle - Extremis and Beyond - Ultimate Iron Man Wired: The Visual Effects of Iron Man Robert Downey Jr. Screen Test The Actor's Process - Rehearsal scene featuring the cast and director The Onion Piece - "Wildly Popular Iron Man Trailer to be Adapted into Full Length Film" Still Galleries

more than an action movie,
By
This review is from: Iron Man - Ultimate Edition (Bilingue) [2-Disc Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
this is one movie that was way better than i thought it would be.it'snot just an action movie.it's also a smart,cleverly written movie,with some great dialogue.it also incorporates real global problems,serving as a sort of commentary on our times.it's not preachy,it just shows how far we've progressed.or maybe regressed as a society.there is also the theme of redemption in the movie.i mentioned the good dialogue.an example of that is the witty banter between Tony Stark(Robert Downey Jr.)and his assistant Pepper Pots(Gwyneth Paltrow).beyond that though,Stark is generally witty.i liked the origin story of the film,though i can't say whether or not it's accurate to the comic book.naturally,there are some great action sequences,especially the flying scenes and the combat scenes.and that suit is very impressive,both in looks and functionality.as to the cast,Downey is very good as Stark/Iron Man.Paltrow is very likable as Pepper Potts.Terrance Howard is good as Stark's military friend Rhodey,but i feel he was underutilized.oh well,maybe the sequel will rectify that.i heard that Howard is being replaced in the sequel by Don Cheadle.nothing against Cheadle,but i think they ought to stick with Howard,since he originated the character in the film.but the best actor in the bunch,in my opinion is Jeff Bridges,who gives a William Hurt type performance,understated,yet simmering with passion and charisma.that's just my opinion.anyway,,the movie is fun and engaging,but it's no empty headed action movie.not that there's anything wrong with that.no,this is a smart movie with heart and soul.my vote for Iron Man: 5/5

Downey Jr Shines,
By
This review is from: Iron Man (Widescreen) (DVD)
"Iron Man" is a comic book movie telling the story of billionaire arms and weaponry mastermind Tony Stark, who after being in the Lion's den of Afghanistan and realizing how much harm his weapons cause the world, quits the arms business, creating a costume and becoming an avenger.Good special effects, fabulous performance by Robert Downey Jr., this movie is amongst the best super hero movies of recent times. It never really wavers during its 2-hour length time. There's a high degree of social conscience to this movie and the lead actor's emotional transformation is fascinating to watch.
