i didnt like how the director gave himself about 10 mnutes of unnecesary screentime.

But whatever.

Its not like he had to delete scenes of major characters to do that.

The last 20 minutes are exhilarating cinema. Director Jon Favreau – who gets more screentime this time round as Happy Hogan – manages to deliver a great follow-up which should satisfy even the most ardent fanboy. And for fans of the Marvel Universe, it’s worth staying past the credits for an extra scene at the end of the movie.

Hey Rodney, great review.

Just thought id say this was alot better then IM1 in my opinion, probably because Mickey Rourke is an ultimate badass!

With reference to Rhodes, if you remember Nick Fury telling Stark how he ‘let’ him get away with the MarkII suit? He even said it had a type of ‘firewall’ that Rhodes wouldn’t possibly get into, so obviously it was hinting that Stark actually wanted Rhodes to take the suit.

In reply to king0770. That is for you to decide. I would bring my youngest who is almost 8. But this does have more violence than the first one, but there is no sex at all.

Hey Rodney,

My six year old son is bugging me to see Iron Man 2. In your opinion, is this movie safe for kids to see? (not sure if you have kids or not).

Best Regards,

In reply to Schulzy. And does this make me a retard? I had no clue that Jon Favreau was both the director and played Hogan. Kudos to him for an awesome movie, and me not hating him as an actor.

I see your 7 and raise you a 7.5. I thought the film could have used just a liiiitle more action in the middle, and I share many of your nitpicks save for the Justin Hammer thing.

SPOILER WARNING! SKIP THIS PARAGRAPH!

The thing with Tony’s dad leaving clues to his undiscovered element? So old. I am sick and tired of the “secret riddle” plot device and it kind of put a damper on the whole thing for me. I’m just thankful that it wasn’t a big part of the film, and truth be told it was at least set up fairly well. But I’m glad that they’re really setting up the Demon in a Bottle storyline. Tony does a fair bit of drinking in this movie, and you can even catch his dad having a drink, suggesting that maybe it runs in the family.

END SPOILERS! END SPOILERS!

All in all, I’m glad to see a sequel that isn’t “darker” or “edgier.” I liked Pepper Potts’ role in this film, and am glad to see that relationship playing out the way it is. And damn is I’m not in love with “Scar Jo:” She is sexy, and I fully endorse a spin off movie for her character. You know it would work, don’t deny it. YOU KNOW IT!

And Rodney, I’ll shoot you an e-mail about this in a week or so once everyone’s seen the film, but I’d like to ask you to make a post about the scene near the end about Tony’s Membership in the Avenger Initiative. I’d like to see a discussion about that on these boards.

Personal Message to Scar Jo: Divorce your incredibly attractive husband, and marry me. Or don’t divorce him, and I’ll be your…male mistress? What are those called? Or, hell, bring him along, I’m open to try new things.
