Product Description Bluray Disc
You know you're going to get a different kind of superhero when you cast Robert Downey Jr. in the lead role. And Iron Man is different, in welcome ways. Cleverly updated from Marvel Comics' longstanding series, Iron Man puts billionaire industrialist Tony Stark (that's Downey) in the path of some Middle Eastern terrorists; in a brilliantly paced section, Stark invents an indestructible suit that allows him to escape. If the rest of the movie never quit hits that precise rhythm again, it nevertheless offers plenty of pleasure, as the renewed Stark swears off his past as a weapons manufacturer, develops his new Iron Man suit, and puzzles both his business partner (Jeff Bridges in great form) and executive assistant (Gwyneth Paltrow). Director Jon Favreau geeks out in fun ways with the hardware, but never lets it overpower the movie, and there's always a goofy one-liner or a slapstick pratfall around to break the tension. As for Downey, he doesn't get to jitterbug around too much in his improv way, but he brings enough of his unpredictable personality to keep the thing fresh. And listen up, hardcore Marvel mavens: even if you know the Stan Lee cameo is coming, you won't be able to guess it until it's on the screen. It all builds to a splendid final scene, with a concluding line delivery by Downey that just feels absolutely right. --Robert Horton

Good Buy September 3, 2010 eddie Well the seller was very fast and professional very good description and very accurate to the condition of the blue ray video. Will do business again soon.
Iron Man DVD August 20, 2010 Tania Talgi Everything seems to be fine with the DVD and the shipping time was good.
Top Notch story and Superhero flick August 7, 2010 Theodore Dalton (Alliance, OH USA) I never followed Iron Man in the comics, so the idea of this character as a movie intrigued me. The story and character build is one that keeps the viewer interested quite apart from any "superhero" quality. It is not as far fetched as the imagination would recommend rather quite feasible in technoloy although some of the action takes it further than a rational story. actors/actresses are well cast for the most part.
Classic Movie Fun! August 3, 2010 Sail Away "Iron Man" is a great movie. It is great simply because it provides escapism fun for the length of the movie. I cannot claim to be a Hollywood movie critic. I am not going to dissect the acting skills of every actor or the quality of the scenes.
All I can say is this - when a movie is over, if I feel moved because of the message it delivers or, in the case of Iron Man, I am excited about the action, etc., and can't wait to watch it again, then I consider it a great movie!
Iron Man is a great action movie, pure & simple. If you like things that fly, explosions, etc., all delivered with a Sci-Fi, eccentric billionaire twist, then you'll probably love Iron Man.
The Blu-Ray version is superb....explosions, fighting, etc., all provide excellent audio quality. The video is very good.
In summary, I think it's classic movie fun....sit back and enjoy it for what it is - a fun ride!
Hmmm, Robert Downey Jr. July 17, 2010 Jazzejp I love just about any movie Robert Downey Jr. is in and this is no exception. Good action movie with a little bit of "this is unbelievable". It's a great family movie. And who doesn't like a superhero.
