Firstly, Robert Downey just screams out HOT HOT HOT ALERT! Not exactly that handsome actually, but his character was just so cool that it seriously didn't matter who was acting. Tony Stark (Downey) is the legacy of Stark Industries, which creates weapons for the military. He single handedly created Iron Man our of scraps in a cave! A cave, mind you. Plus, he's a chick magnet. The chicks just have a natural affinity for Stark.
The climax reminds me of transformers. Two gigantic robot-machinery-man thingy battling against each other. Cliche. Even so, it's still really worth watching. The selling point of this movie is not the plot obviously. It's those fancy hi-tech gadgets that made the impression.
For those of you who have no idea, the brainchild behind Iron Man is Marvel Comics mastermind Stan Lee, an incredible comic veteran who also drew Spiderman, The Hulk, Fantastic 4 etc etc...
Something you should know...
1. Stan had a brief guest appearance in Princess Diaries 2 as Three Stooges Wedding Guest.
2. Iron man was created in 1963.
3. The movie costs $140,000,000.
4. Most of the superhero movies (Transformers, Spiderman, Fantastic 4) were shot in New York, whereas iron man was shot in LA.
5. The gold-red iron man suit took Downey 40 minutes to put on.
6. Factual errors: Stark is said to have graduated from MIT summa cum laude, but MIT does not graduate people with honors!
7. Stan Lee is freaking 85 and alive as ever.
