Just as people like my friend Setsuna Setsunai said, I came into the movie thinking it was not going to be AMAZING, but merely average. The fist hulk movie was pretty good in my opinion although not at all amazing, just an OK movie. not great or anything 
. and movies like spiderman 1 2 and 3 were again, ok, but not mindblowing although part 3 was my favorite if only for the less than 15 minutes of screen time of black suit spiderman and venom. Venom’s name was stated and his voice and bukiness corrected in the spiderman 3 game because in the movie, the voice was nowhere near menacing and he looked shrimpy. not the venom we all knew and loved.
Anyway, the same cliche comic rolling like at the beginning of the spiderman movies occured, and immediately the movie looked great. Tony Stark built his first motherboard at the age of 4, and his first engine at the age of 6. all this is explained after he is taken captive after a roadside bomb blows up a car in front of him and the soldiers protecting him are killed ( after which a missile landed near him and the shrapnel nearly pierced his heart).
I won’t spoil it for people who have not seen it yet, but the CGI was AMAZING. the jericho missile launch was GREAT, the graphics and such were even better than transformers in my honest opinion. I’ll admit, I am one of the people who thought cloverfield might suck, but when I saw it , it blew me away. the whole concept of the story was incredible and the characters’ struggles GREAT.
However, I didn’t think any other movie would blow me away, at least not so soon. but Iron Man managed to do it. Great CGI, very good voice acting without wasted effort or anything of the such. action at EVERY SINGLE MOMENT, where there is not action there is great suspense.
I highly recommend this movie, and in fact, think it will suck as your going into the movies. Because if you do ( like I did) you will be AMAZED. It was a movie many thought might fail but was great in the end. don’t put your expectations too high and you will truly enjoy it. a must see movie.
