Iron Man
Saturday, May 3rd, 2008
This super hero movie is like no other, heroes are built. Forget about special powers, Iron Man is about a man, his money and his quest to change the fate of the world. Tony Stark is played by Robert Downey Jr. and he offers a great performance. He’s really believable in his character, without being too emo (see Spiderman). Tony Stark is your typical rich jerk that makes a lot of money selling advance weapons. After demonstrating a new missile called the Jericho he is kidnapped by a terrorist group that demands he replicates those missiles for them. Surprisingly they have all the equipment needed, they just need the brains to complete the project.
The genius he is, decides to build a robotic suit instead of the missile in an attempt to escape. Obviously this prototype is far from the final product he’ll be able to accomplish in a lab with top level equipment. Imagine Batman with more money!
