Ironing the man

Maybe I have too high expectation on this movie, Ironman ( without considering the director and producers), after watching The Transformers. I had low expectation on that best-movie-evah, thought it was just normal kinda animations – but it turns out me went crazy over it. So, as for the Iron man – eh who the heck directed this movie…

Jap..check…

Ooo its Jon Favreau who also has his list of films/series here..

Hmmm..no wonder…

The first hour of the movie is so dreary. I am so not into this Arab-terrorists-versus-America thingy, very ‘propagated’. But there’s a few scenes that u may laugh your head-off and some ‘jerky’ and ‘slimy’ scenes. Storyline was a bit lose, lack of emotions, suspense and drama, in other words it is being convoluted in a predictable way. Well, of course we ‘anticipate’ the hero will win, how he wins does matter. Robert Downey Jr, however. acted really well, so is the otai Jeff Bridges. The cool Terence Howard didn’t get his grip in this movie, Gwyneth Paltrow is like a Barbie doll – this is a very unchallenging role for her. I like the soundtrack though. Yeah okay – what dya expect from a marvel-comic superheroes movie, like the Spiderman, Fantastic Four and Hulk. So far, for me, Batman, Superman and Xmen are the good ones.

Why I watch ironman? Because the promotions on tv has been ‘hocusingpocusing’ my kids and my better half…hehehe ..so I had to follow ;-). Entertaining movie..if you feel like it...

Nevertheless, my kids enjoyed it - only when the part where Tony Sparks turns into Iron man and the jet planes. They also enjoyed when we taught them to play pool ( the pool tables placed at the foyer near the theater @ MBO ampang – the rm3 per game [but the tables and balls are not that goodlah ;-) ] ). We normally watch movie there, near to our place, very convenient, not so crowded, have good food and most important – free and easy parking…

Batman! Batman! Batman!

PEACE
