Iron Man

Robert Downey w/d Jon Favreau

This was cartoon level material...essentially a variation on the batman theme: a richie decides to use his money to fight bad guys and creates some high tech gadgets to do it.

This had all the tools of modern filmmaking available and used them well. Lots of CGI, rapid-fire pacing, even a fearsome bad guy (Jeff Bridges?...a long way from Starman).

Loud, fun junk.
