Iron man is the next comic book movie that manages to blow its audience away with incredible elements such as soundtrack, performances, special effect and outstanding results from the director Jon Favreaus.
When a famous millionaire is kidnapped by terrorists, Tony Stark (Robert Downey) is forced to build a missile for a terrorist attack. Stark finds himself living off an electro magnet that is wedged into his chest keeping him a blink from death, as it’s preventing a shrapnel wound from killing him.
During this kidnapping Tony Stark and his other fellow kidnapped Prisoner (Yinsen) build a protective suit that can be used as a weapon and escape from the terrorists.
From there on the film becomes its usual "Shoot the bad guys and save the world" storyline.
It includes amazing graphics and a variety of pyrotechnics along with phenomenal CGI used to create the armour.
Iron Man has said to take the comic book genre to the highest level.
Without a doubt it is one of the top ten movies of 2008. A must see for all comic book movie fans.
