Movie is nothing great. Don Cheadle is a poor substitute for Terrance Howard, looks odd both in millitary outfits and as Warmachine. Scarlett Johansson is poor in the action scenes. Mickey Rourke looks terrific but is given almost nothing to do , after a terrific introduction fight on the race track. RD overacts. Sam Rockwell , well groomed for the first time actually comes of best as Justin Hammer. Can watch once, and if you are a Marvel fan watch for the teasers for Captain America and Thor (after the end credits)

????? I think you are redefining the definition of a super hero. Unbelievable. I think the pea sized brain of yours is too exhausted watching and trying to understand the super hero stuff. Take a chill pill dear.
I saw the movie today. I will give you the true review. The movie has some of the best (really good action sequences). The action sequences that will remain in your head are 1. When Ivan meets Iron man for the first time at the Monaco grand prix. The scene where pepper potts pushes the suitcase towards Tony Stark which he stops by his leg and the suitcase dismantles itself and dresses tony stark to Iron man. That was mind blowing. The next stunt that remains in your head is the one by Scarlett Johannson when she locates Ivan and goes to capture him. There at hammer industries she fights with the security of the building. Her moves were nea to perfect. Since I have been to a large amount of engineering and scientific expos, the way they show expo in this movie is like a disco theque. which is just ridiculus. The other being the accelerater constructed by him to create the new element(which looks like a molecule rather than an element)to be used insted of palladium for fuel. We can clearly see he uses a prism to deflect a laser. Its just a laser not an accelerator. Well other than this just for the two stunts that I mentioned above It is realy a cool movie. Watch it. Story wise this movie lags much behind Iron man 1.
