I am just sitting down to my computer after watching “Iron Man 2”. I have to say that the movie scores monstrous points for its use of Russian accents on a totally bad ass villain and Robert Downy Jr. is still as hot as ever. But, when it comes down to cinematic delight, I was taken aback by its hyperbolic portrayal of Tony Stark from the original “Iron Man”, and that is no mean feat.
The movie was rushed, staged, and had too many villains and super heroes for my taste. I was antsily tossing in my seat throughout the first half of the film, but the second half regained the pick-up intensity that I enjoyed in the first film. The action scenes were both good and bad, the dialogue witty, but wanting…
I definitely want to give the movie a second viewing before I pass true judgment upon it. I believe that watching a movie on a Monday evening in a shabby movie theater (though the tickets were free) after a long day’s work and nearly comatose from a large dinner has its effects on my ability to enjoy a movie to its fullest. Over all, though, I’m pretty sure that this will be added to my collection of AC/DC action packed movies that make for productive knitting afternoons.
