Iron Man
Double Sided UK Quad, Rolled, 27 x 40 inches
One of the better Marvel adaptations, the obnoxious and slightly smug carefree billionaire Tony Stark is a near perfect fit for Downey Jr. The origin story is well measured and allows enough time for a bit of a story and some decent action scenes later in the film - the Iron Man suit and effects are always impressive and feel real, never descending to OTT cartoon like CG. I think that Jon Favreau gets the blend of humour, action and drama just right and it's a tight and entertaining film. |
