As I eagerly took my seat at AMC to watch the much hyped movie Cloverfield, I saw a preview for a movie I never knew was being made (Although I could've expected it).
Although Cloverfield was very disappointing - No known reason why this "Alien" is attacking NYC or the hand held camera action like the Blair Witch, which almost made me sick by the end of it. The only good part about this movie was the previews and more importantly...the preview for Ironman!
These comic books turned hollywood movie has seen its fair share of Good (X-Men, Spider-man, any kind of man) and Bad (Daredevil, Catwoman), but now they are coming out like never before.
Directed by Jon Favreau, this comic is based on "Billionaire playboy industrialist Tony Stark who makes weapons for the U.S. government. While out on a field test of one of his inventions, he is wounded, captured and forced to make weapons for the enemy. Instead, he fashions himself a crude powered armor to save his life and facilitate his escape. When he returns home, he revises his armor and finds new purpose as the armored Avenger Iron Man!"
With Robert Downey Jr. (who has seen his fair share of Good and Bad movie roles....and rehabilitation clinics) playing the lead role of Ironman, this one looks to be on the better side.
Playing alongside Downey in this Classic comic is Terrence Howard, Gwyneth Paltrow, Jeff Bridges and Samuel L. Jackson.
Rabba's Verdict:
CLASSY!!!
This preview makes it seem as Robert Downey was the perfect fit for this role.
Check backaround May 2 for Le Sprogre's review on this movie. Needless to say, I'm sure we have all seen terrible movies with a great preview!
