Iron Man returns with plenty of explosions, great one-liners and a tongue in cheek poke at the cult of celebrity overriding all else, even common sense.

“Iron Man 2? is more of the same- a lot more. This episode has Tony Stark (Robert Downey, Jr.) fighting on several fronts: he’s battling the U.S. Government for control of his Iron Man suit, a rival businessman (Sam Rockwell) who’s trying to build his own suit and a crazed Russian physicist who’s trying to avenge his father’s ruined caree.”

Sleek computer generated fight scenes and amazingly nifty technology which makes the iPad look like an Egyptian scroll vie with Robert Downey Jr's charm which totally suits the Tony Stark character as if he had been the model (in the way that Samuel L Jackson literally was the model for the Nick Fury character). 

CAST: Robert Downey Jr, Sam Rockwell, Mickey Rourke, Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle, Scarlett Johansson, Samuel L Jackson


DIRECTOR: Jon Favreau
