Welcome to the Reel Review. I have created this blog because I tend to disagree with all of the movie reviews I read in the paper. I can no longer stand by while the movies I love get slammed and the worst of them all get 5 stars. It has got to the point where I choose the movies I see based on how little stars they get in the paper. Half a star has become a must see for me. 5 stars – I don’t even bother. Please feel free to agree or disagree with my reviews because that’s what it’s all about. I hope you enjoy the REEL REVIEW!!

IRON MAN 2

Starring: Robert Downey Jr, Don Cheadle, Scarlett Johansson, Gwyneth Paltrow, Mickey Rourke, Samuel L Jackson



This movie kicks off where the last one ended. Tony Stark reveals himself as Iron Man and soaks up all the publicity he can in the process. But while this is all going on, the invention that is keeping him alive is also slowly killing him.

Delivering what it promises, Iron Man 2 is full of action, humour and a tiny bit of romance thrown in at the end. Mickey Rourke plays the new "bad guy" to a tee and causes some problems for Tony Stark and his new side kick "War Machine" (Don Cheadle). I'm pretty sure there were some parts of this flick that only readers of the marvel comics would have picked up on, but it isn't essential to the movie.

I recommend this movie if you want a no thinking involved, easy to watch, action movie.

  1. I loved the first Iron Man movie!
    Do you think the sequel is as good as the first?

  2. The first Iron Man movie tops the sequel any day. Iron Man 2 is still worth watching if you enjoyed the original as much as i did.
