Tony Stark is not only the boss of a technology group, but also a bizarre player. During the inspection in Afghanistan, he was kidnapped by the terrorist group. They requested Tony to manufacture weapons to attack the United States. Realizing the harsh reality that the weapons he had produced were reversing to attack himself, Tony began to build high-tech armor. Escaping from the place of detention, Tony became the representative of justice under the nickname Iron Man. Meanwhile, the fellow in his group attempted to overthrow Tony Stark...
Iron Man is enjoyable, snappily scripted, unpatronising entertainment, but it can't dispel a niggling sense that it's not quite as good as you want it to be.
It's faithful to the comic origins without being slavish, draws ideas from the entire run of the series, and stirs a self-aware sense of humor through the action while still taking the enterprise seriously.
Robert Downey Jr. gives a nicely sardonic performance as Tony Stark, a rich playboy and the brilliant heir to his father's weapons manufacturing dynasty.
Injecting the brilliantly bright, quick, and clever life force that is Robert Downey Jr. into the comic-book superhero realm is a masterstroke, a kick in the head to the tired franchises of the genre.
His well-honed acting chops aside, a big reason the casting of Downey as Stark works so darn well is that incorrigible streak, which he somehow always has been able to balance with an irrepressible likability and which he uses to full effect here.
Led by Downey's career-resurrecting performance as billionaire weapons peddler Tony Stark, it proves just as indispensable to the movie's giddy escapist appeal as the seamless CGI effects and eye-popping pyrotechnics.
