A Review of the Iron Man Movie

I really like the Iron man super hero. He is like the
ultimate creation by human technology. Even the newest military stealth
fighters are no match for the hypersonic & virtually invincible
flying suit of armor. Tony Stark has got all sorts of high tech
weaponry in his Iron man suit like plasma rays & etc. Bound to
survive by an advanced mechanical heart, Tony Stark becomes the Iron
man to battle any form of terrorism which had caused him to lose his
natural heart in the first place.

I thought I would shed some
light on the origin of the Iron Man character played by Robert Downey
Junior in the movie Iron man . Anthony "Tony" Stark was born on Long
Island, New York which obviously made him a citizen of the United
States. He is a genius inventor & the son of industrialist, Howard
Stark. Tony Stark enrolled in college electrical engineering program at
MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) at age 15. With his father
& mother being deceased, his only known relative is Morgan, his
cousin.

Tony Stark then inherited his father's business, Stark
Industries at age 21 & made it into a multi million-dollar company
after a few years whose chief contracts were weaponry & munitions
for the U.S. government. Iron man s first appearance was in the comic
Tales of Suspense #39. The movie by Paramount Pictures & Marvel
Enterntainment released 2008 next year is different than the original
comic book regarding the location where the first Iron man was built
(Vietnam) in order to reflect contemporary world issues. I reckon it is
a good idea because viewers are able to relate to the present reality
& make the Iron man movie more realistic.

Iron man does a
sonic boom! Robert Downey Junior suits up to be the first Iron man in
the movies. Samuel L. Jackson as an African American version of Nick
Fury may not be such a bad idea after all. I mean he is the Samuel L.
Jackson who does federal characters extremely well. I mean Iron man is
about Robert Downey Junior. He is good at comedies & drama but as
an action hero, we will have to wait & see. Also in the foray are
the sweet Gwyneth Paltrow & Jim Rhodes which makes the Iron man
movie an anticipated star studded blockbuster film next year.

The
Iron man armor worn by Robert Downey Junior looks more realistic than
the comic book version. In the Iron man movie, the armor looks like a
full body casing with advanced hinges at the joints, rivets & the
works. The armor of Iron man in the comics looks as though it is a
shiny layer of metallic cloth donned over human muscle. A state of the
art, magnetic molecular metal binding technology that makes the armor
looks like cloth seems to far fetched idea at present. It is good that
the costume designers had a more realistic looking suit of armor
specially made for the Iron man movie.
