I'd say 2 out of 5. Ultimately it didn't succeed in being the film it wanted to be but most of the performances are good and there are a few good sequences and even more interesting sequences. I believe that Iron Man will disappoint further in its sequel and then go away (maybe they'll do an Avenger movie in there first though), but this film will make a mark on film-makers and influence future such movies.

Marvel comic is Civil War. make sure you get this one first: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Civil-War-Mark-Millar/dp/078512179X/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1211193939&sr=8-2 It's the core around which the other million spin-offs/companion pieces are based. I don't have a problem with race reassignment in general. Certainly not if they pick a decent actor for it. Yes, being with the kids did help.

On the movie on the whole, maybe going with the kids actually worked in it's favour? As in you'd see it through their eyes to a degree too... Having said that, I'd sit through it again if I had my arm twisted to any degree so it's not like I completely hated it or anything. It REALLY made me want to read some comics. Haven't picked up any yet though, was thinking of that one you told me about which I have fogotten the name of again... Still though, roll on the next superhero film :) Yeah, I heard after I saw it that there was something in the closing credits… not sure that would have done it for me, after all, it’s a little akin to when they made that odd decision on the Kingpin in Daredevil isn’t it?

I enjoyed it. I think it probably deserves an extra half star in your review Frank. I'm guessing you didn't stick around till the post credit sequence, because that really gave the whole thing an extra kick, from a comics geek perspective. Check it out: http://www.i-am-bored.com/bored_link.cfm?link_id=29676 Quality is rough, any decent quality clips from online seem to have been pulled already. I bet they'll do similar in Hulk with Iron Man coming in at the end. I took the kids to Iron Man yesterday. I enjoyed it. I think it probably deserves an extra half star in your review Frank.
