But once I heard they were casting Hollywood bad boy and notorious everything-addict Robert Downey Jr. as the main character, the irony couldn't keep me away. <br/>And the movie kept me coming back. Iron Man has more heart and soul than any comic book movie since Christopher Reeves played Superman.<br/><br/>Tony Stark thinks he's working for the forces of good by developing and manufacturing weapons for the United States to use in the War Against Terror.  But when he finds out that his products are being supplied to both sides of the conflict, he takes action in the most advanced weapon ever - a metal suit that protects the wearer, has a pinpoint targeting system, and more firepower than a squad of marines.</p>&#13; <p><br/>And oh yeah.  It can fly.</p>&#13; <p> </p>&#13; <p>Iron Man is a flick about learning how to be the good guy, taking down the bad guy, and getting the girl - almost - along the way. And it's a heck of a lot of fun.  Wait through...</p>... Tue, 05 May 2009 14:28:54 GMT http://www.viewpoints.com/Iron-Man-review-f39f5 smittywing 5
