The first Iron Man movie made the news and was one of the biggest box office hits of all time. It grossed more than $70 million in ticket sales, which is quite impressive. It also featured big names such as Robert Downey Jr. and Mel Gibson.
The movie dealt with the development of a new super hero after a serious accident that left him with no arms or legs. He was then left with only a metal arm that was wired to a robotic arm. His life was just going downhill when he encountered a boy who could control metal. This child was none other than Dr. Abraham arc, who developed a serum that would give the disabled man a new life.
The basis for the story is incredible. It is based around a reality where a number of scientists were developing a new technology called Solid State Power. One of these scientists was a man named Jeff Bridges. He was a brilliant young man, who always seems to be looking ahead to something better. In one scene, we even saw that he had formed an experimental corporation.
What made the story work was the acting. Bridges, along with co-stars Robert Downey Jr. and Tommy Lee Jones, added some charisma to an otherwise rather flat character. The two Hollywood mainstays, along with having an ensemble cast of talented supporting actors, made the movie one of the most talked about movies of the year.
The movie did have its highs and lows. It was very thrilling to watch the young man achieve his goals. However, it was a little hard to take him away from the other scientists that were working on the same technology. There were a few scenes that felt a little generic, and I felt that some of the subplots were predictable. Luckily, most of the story elements made up for it in the end. The visual effects were spectacular, and the overall movie was a huge success.
With all of the terrific special effects, and the witty dialogue, Iron Man makes another great addition to the hall of fame of Hollywood blockbusters. Don’t miss out on this highly entertaining and romantic tale. Don’t forget to check out the trailers of the film. You won’t regret it! Give it a shot!
