DVD Reviews of Iron Man (Ultimate Two-Disc Edition + BD Live) [Blu-ray]

DVD Review: A superb super hero movie (finaly someone who get's it right)
Summary: 5 Stars

Hulk was good, spider-man was better, but IRON MAN tops them all! and in almost every way story-wise, acting-wise, actual good comedy the others had their moments but they lacked the biting wit this one delivered, almost everything is likable about this movie. I really hope part 2 is coming out they need to make more superhero based movies like this not merely iron man, but a plethora of others Thor would be great, Black Panther would be great, Captain America would be awesome, their is far too many to name but bottom line - this is an excellent super hero movie and if you gave it less then 5 stars something's wrong with you! (just kidding)no, but seriously you might need your head checked.

DVD Review: What a come back!
Summary: 4 Stars

If you want to have a good time, this is a good picture and a very good come back for Robert Downey Jr.

DVD Review: Cool, cool, cool!
Summary: 5 Stars

I just flat out love this movie. I'm a middle-aged mom who isn't the biggest action fan in the world, but this movie bowled me over. My young sons weren't sure they wanted to see it at the theater (my younger boy spooks easily and thought Iron Man looked scary on the commercials), so I ended up watching it on a plane last summer. As soon as I saw it, I knew I'd buy the dvd. My husband and both boys love it now, and I think it's my favorite action movie, and certainly my favorite superhero movie (because I don't like any other superhero movies). The film moves along at a breakneck speed, almost as quickly as Robert Downey Jr. talks. This is a fast, clever movie that is by turns seriously moving and laugh-out-loud hilarious. The casting is sublime. Any other actor would have given the movie a completely different tone. I totally bought Downey as the smart-alec (I'm using the nice word) savant with a weakness for women and cars but a sincere desire to do the right thing. I just love this movie! Can you tell?

DVD Review: One of Downey's Jr.'s Best
Summary: 5 Stars

Robert Downey Jr. has done some good movies these past few years; including some pretty esoteric stuff (Kiss, Kiss, Bang, Bang - Wonder Boys - Tropic Thunder) but he sometimes borders on the outrageous here as Tony Stark - In a good way. His experimentation in the lab with his robots by his side, was particularly funny. He delivers a somewhat cool, calm yet lackadaisical approach to things when the pressure is on. He did everything right in this movie and I think that's why he's endeared millions more fans because of it.

Jeff Bridges was extremely annoying and obnoxious as Obadiah "Stane" (was that a subtle hint?) and the "Iron Monger" who battles Iron Man in the final sequence. Which by the way, reminded me of RoboCop 2 (RoboCop vs Cain) and Edward Norton's "Hulk" vs. Tim Roth's "Abomination" battles.

DVD Review: Only One Thing Could Have Made It Better
Summary: 4 Stars

This last year has been a major disappointment for science fiction but there seems to be a veritable glut on superheroes going on now, so I waited to buy Iron Man after I bought The Dark Knight and Hancock, and I can't wait to see Watchmen when that comes to DVD.

Iron Man turned out to be much better than I expected given Marvel's past failures like Daredevil, The Punisher, and as far as I'm concerned, The Hulk. For an origin story, it is well written save for a plot hole or two and very well acted & directed. From beginning to the end credits (and you really have got to wait til the end of the credits or you miss the zinger) this is a really good movie. Not great, but really good. As for the DVD, that's another matter. I was hoping this movie would come in fullscreen like The Dark Knight, The fantastic Four, and other movies where you either bought it fullscreen or as in some cases, you got a disc with widescreen on one side and fullscreen on the other.

Too much of the good stuff gets cut out with widescreen, And I don't know why these companies assume that everyone can afford-- or will even buy a wide screen TV if they could afford it-- and so make movies in only one limited format. Iron Man is already in Blu Ray, so why not fullscreen as well? Then you would have a five star DVD to watch!

Description of Iron Man (Ultimate Two-Disc Edition + BD Live) [Blu-ray]

Suit up for action with Robert Downey Jr. in the ultimate adventure movie you've been waiting for, Iron Man! When jet-setting genius-industrialist Tony Stark is captured in enemy territory, he builds a high-tech suit of armor to escape. Now, he's on a mission to save the world as a hero who's built, not born, to be unlike any other. Co-starring Gwyneth Paltrow, Terrence Howard and Jeff Bridges, it's a fantastic, high-flying journey that is "hugely entertaining" (Joe Morgenstern, The Wall Street Journal).

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
