05.04Weekend Update: Iron Man Edition
Iron Man, the big movie of the weekend, and it did deserve the hype…well most of it.
The movie had an epic scope to it, as it seemed to be longer than the average comic book adaptation.
The acting was superb, and I definitely enjoyed the portrayl of Tony Stark throughout the film, feeling like I was reading the comic book all over again.
Where things fall apart for me, hinges on the villains motives. The villain seems to easily swayed, not really developed, and overall unlike any comic book villain I can remember, regardless of the source material.
The formula in this film was way too easy to follow, and just like Superman, the character just doesn’t fit the scope of reasoning that they could develop in a “non” comic book role.
The movie was ok at best, but I definitely think DC has the edge this year, as The Dark Knight looks like a wortwhile romp into comic book adaptations; Iron Man isn’t lousy, but it’s not worth 100% of the hype.
