**An excellent film, which only loses a little in some details related to the writing of the script and the conception of some characters.**

I’m not a fan of superhero movies, but like any movie fan in general, I’ve seen a good handful of them. This was the first film made by Marvel and financed by the company itself, and it brings us one of its most acclaimed heroes. The film shows how a young playboy millionaire named Tony Stark, with a fortune inherited from his father and largely made from the production and sale of weapons, becomes a vigilante determined not to allow the misuse of the weapons he sells. I don’t know much about comics, but I believe that the film was limited to adapting to the cinema a story already written on paper about the origins of the character, giving it, perhaps, a touch of the present.

The plot is one of the strongest points of the film, not only for the way it introduces the character in the context of the current geopolitical conflicts (with the Middle East issue very present), but mainly for the way it transforms Tony Stark into a deeper character, who lives a catharsis that opens his conscience to questions that he was not sensitive enough to understand. Put more simply, if initially Stark was a rich and spoiled idiot, he ends the movie with another awareness of what he should do and how his attitudes influence the world around him. However, I also felt that once Stark realizes what he has to do, and it becomes clear who the enemy is to defeat, the script quickly loses quality and becomes much more basic and underdeveloped.

With a skillful direction provided by Jon Favreau, the cast gave us a very good performance. Of course, the public’s attention is focused on Robert Downey Jr., an actor who started working in the 80s, but only began to emerge at the turn of the millennium, with some productions (*Gothika*, *Good Night and Good Luck*, *Zodiac*) that he entered before accepting Marvel’s proposal. He is perfect in character and gives us his life’s work as an actor. Beside him, we can still admire Gwynneth Paltrow, in a more discreet but competent role. The villain was secured by Jeff Bridges, but his work is not so well executed and the actor sometimes doesn’t seem to know exactly how to behave in the character.

What can we say about the production values ​​and technical quality of a movie with a millionaire budget of 140 million dollars? It is a film determined to be a blockbuster, which fully achieved all its objectives, earning high profits, pleasing the fans and achieving high praise from the general public and the specialized critics. And the money invested is in plain sight, with a declared bet on very high quality CGI, wonderfully well-executed sound and image effects and really good sets and costumes (with great emphasis – obviously – on Iron Man’s suit and Stark’s mansion). The cinematography is excellent, the filming work was really well done, and the editing was detailed, giving the film a pleasant rhythm that doesn’t tire us out. Finally, a note of praise for the excellent and epic soundtrack.

Review By: Filipe Manuel Dias Neto

**A long form review originally posted in 2010:**

Marking the beginning of the latest Marvel franchise, _The Avengers_, is Jon Favreau’s _Iron Man_.

I’m quite fond of Super Hero movies, I don’t love them to the same extent that I do the slasher or psychological thriller genres, but they do hold a small place in my heart all to themselves. I’m pretty pumped for this whole “Avengers” thing to come to fruition, ’cause honestly it’s all been great so far, starting with Iron Man, whom Robert Downey Jr. (_Natural Born Killers, Gothika, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, A Scanner Darkly, Zodiac, Sherlock Holmes, Due Date_) portrays, and incredibly so.

It’s important to set yourself a starting point. More specifically, what I mean is, a reason. Batman’s parents were murdered, and his home was destroyedby crime; The Punisher’s whole family was murdered in front of him and he big-time snapped; characters like the X-Men and the Fantastic 4 are defending themselves and end up having a penchant for world-saving. Those are all fine, and so long as you have one, I’m happy. But I really kind of like Tony Stark’s reason for becoming Iron Man… He’s a dick. That’s why. He’s a dick that supplies the world with the most lethal weapons in existence, and they take lives left, right and centre. Then, he’s put through the world where they get used, and finally is told by the person who helped him escape that world, not to waste his life. He believes he is still alive for a reason, he decides that reason is to become a dick that is intent on privatising world peace. Which I think makes perfect sense.

That may have come across as sarcasm, but I was deadly serious. Tony Stark becomes Iron man, and that’s why. It works fantastically. We then get to see all the incarnations of his suit, how difficult it was to make, what it runs on, the technology, everything. And I’m a huge fan of back story, which Iron Man delivers.

It’s sort of the antithesis of DC’s _Batman Begins_. Though they’re both young adults that come from money with no family, a British butler (although Iron man’s butler Jarvis was transformed into AI for the film [he was an actual person in the comics]), they have a board of directors take care of their family’s billionaire business until they’re ready to eventually take the reins, they both become “____ Man” and go about saving the innocent, not through superpowers but technology. I’m sure I could go on. But they’re also incredibly different. Where Batman is a total bad ass, the gothic unknown defender of the night that uses fear as a weapon to protect his home town, and yet refuses to kill; Iron Man is a bright, shiny, loud attention grabber, who goes all international to fight crime, he wants the world to know he’s Iron Man and his enemies are totally lame, so no wonder he has no qualms about killing! Batman’s secret identity, Bruce Wayne, is an angsty tosser, that tries way to hard. But Tony Stark, is a witty, brilliant inventor, who has basically harnessed all of Batman’s training, strength, weapons, vehicles and flight, improved them, and put them in to a single suit. So though I personally prefer Batman as a hero, I prefer Tony Stark as a character.

The interaction between Stark and Pepper Potts, played by Gwyneth Paltrow (_Se7en, The Talented Mr. Ripley, The Royal Tenenbaums, Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow_) was incredible. It just goes to show what good casting can achieve, even in an action flick, the dialogue is hilarious and clever. Is it possible for a Super Hero movie to be a bad Super Hero film but a great film? I guess it is.

The antagonists are lacking to say the least, and their dispatching leaves even more to be desired. Which is normally not too huge when you get the rest so perfect, unfortunately, it’s a comic book film, about Super Heroes, and Super Villains. They fight one another over and over, in fact that’s pretty much what the comics are about in their entirety, so it’s quite a major short coming. That being said, it’s really the only one that _Iron Man_ has. In a way though, they’re a similar comparison to the latest Batman films again; Iron Monger and Whiplash are flashy, but disappointing, where The Joker, Two-Face, Scarecrow and Ra’s al Ghul are top notch as bad guys. Whereas Ironman’s Obadiah Stane and Ivan Vanko were great characters, but Batman’s The Joker is only seen in his villain persona, and Harvey Dent, Jonathan Crane and Henri Ducard are nothing more than vessels for their alter-egos.

All that aside, the film is just plain good, and you don’t need to be a fan of Iron Man, Super Heroes or comics in general to enjoy _Iron Man_.

Still one of the best MCU-movies
In my attempt to rewatch all the MCU-movies chronologically I began with the first Iron Man. To cut to the chase: it’s still good. A couple of things astonished me, though:

First of all, a common mistake of the later Marvel-movies isn’t made here. There is actually some sort of character development visible. Tony ends the movie as a totally different person. Of course, in an origin story it’s easier to have your protagonist change but let’s compare for a second: Is Ant-man really a changed man at the end of the movie? What about Star Lord? What about Thor? Black Widow? Hawkeye?

Then again, you have to give it to the director that he really made a well-paced, well-balanced movie. There is action, humour, drama, world establishing, all in great balance. The final fight isn’t stretched too long and therefore doesn’t get boring. You can’t underestimate this in our age of 45 mins battles at the end of movies.

During my re-watch I also noticed how ‘down to earth’ this movie is if you compare it to some of the more recent MCU-entries. It just looks more real than them. It’s set in a world that at least COULD be real which makes us care more for the characters and their actions. More explosions and obvious cgi-effects don’t improve a movie. So the movie doesn’t feel as bloated as some other superhero flicks.

Finally, Iron Man is still fun to watch and not just a vehicle to set up a franchise. If you’ve spent the last couple of years on the moon and haven’t seen any of the MCU-movies, give this a try.

“Give me a scotch. I’m starving.”
Outstanding movie and possibly the best Marvel’s done to date, at least as far as their shared universe films go. Let’s cut right to the chase: Robert Downey, Jr. makes this movie work. I’m not going to say he’s the perfect Tony Stark because Downey’s Stark is really very different from how he has always been in the comics. But it works far better this way and is a huge point in favor of deviating from the source material, which is the eternal struggle between Hollywood and anything it adapts. This is one case where the changes they made worked out great. The rest of the cast is terrific, all following Downey’s lead very well. His enthusiastic performance is a joy to watch. I’m sure it must have been a ball for Paltrow, Bridges, and the rest to act with him as they all seem to be having a great time in their scenes together. Jon Favreau does a praiseworthy job of directing, especially when he hadn’t really done this type of movie before. The action and special effects are great. The script is smart and funny, though a lot of the humor comes from the ad-libbing of Downey and co-stars, so I’m not sure how much credit I can give the script for that. It’s really a wonderful piece of entertainment without being mindless or crude. One of the best superhero films ever made.
