Cheap DVDs: Iron Man (Special Collector’s Edition) [Blu-ray] (2008) Comments Off
After being busy selecting some home lighting, I only have time to talk about Iron Man now.
I am a big Marvel Comics fan, always have been, but I shall be amongst the first to throw stones at Marvel and Hollywood for the way they’ve treated so many of me childhood heroes on the silver screen. “Spiderman” was fine, but all the rest of the lot were… well, less than good.
Then comes “Iron Man“. I was expecting “Fantastic Dare-Hulk 7″ but what I got was something different entirely. It was really good.
“Iron Man” is well casted, well played, and indeed, well made.
The action sequences doesn’t steal the picture absolutely, as have been the case with earlier superhero films; nor does the film lack character development. The humor works, for a change, and although this film absolutely is sci-fi d’or, it somehow doesn’t seem that far fetched. It is made believable, or at least acceptable.
