Northwest Military's Review

Roger Ebert on May 5th, 2010

Favorite This Like this Movie? You can Favorite it on your Profile.

Iron Man 2 is a polished, high-ozone sequel, building once again on a quirky performance by Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark.  The zillionaire is near death with a failing energy source, and protecting his Iron Man from a covetous defense department and a jealous rival (Sam Rockwell).  The rival hires a bitter Russian genius with a score to settle (Mickey Rourke), Stark's faithful assistant Pepper Potts (Gwyneth Paltrow) holds the empire together, his comrade Rhodey Rhodes (Don Cheadle) stands at his side, and an enigmatic warrior woman (Scarlett Johansson) creates mystery.  Not as good as the original, but it gets the job done. - Three stars

This was not the worst movie I have ever seen but it was nothing like the first. It basically was Tony Stark saying "I'm rich and famous and look at ALL my toys."

The villain whiplash was pathetic. He never really scared me (and the real Whiplash was not even Russian).

Okay, I have found the problem with Iron Man. He never really had any dynamic enemies. Batman has the Joker. SpiderMan has venom. X-Men has Magneto or Apocalypse. Who does Iron Man have? He needs to join the Avengers and quick because Scarlett Johansen is the only reason I may still get this movie on DVD
