Iron man review

One movie down in the big Summer list. Ironman was good, and it's weekend numbers are no fluke. At first most people that I spoke with regarding the movie were critical with the choice of Robert Downey, Jr. in this role. Well, he was well suited for the role.

The movie is packed with action, humor and special effects. Transformers was as well, and this movie is no different. I completley enjoyed the movie. Plenty of witty one-liners only Robert Downey, jr can deliver.

Take the time to watch this, in the theatre. Absolutley will be in my collection.

The one thing bad about the whole experience: A total jackass 3 rows down from me. It is always someone who will ruin the movie going experience. For example, When Jared and I went to see Fred Claus last Christmas: 3 couples arrive each with 2 kids in tow. We usually sit in the back row so our chairs dont get kicked by some lame-o who can't control his legs. Well these couples sat one row forward the back and deposited their total of 6 kids in the back. You know full well that there was no supervision of these kids. The backrow became a jungle gym. Kids would run around and occassionaly lean over the chair trying to get their little fingers into the popcorn. Later in the movie, one little girl came over and stood and stared at both of us. For 2 minutes. So we moved. Low and behold, we chose another idiot to sit in front of. This one gets caught up in the movie and starts singing with the christmas carols featured in the film. That experience alls short of one I had watching Oceans 13. Obviously this couple were on their first date and decided to talk to each other during the entire movie. At least until I told them to shut the * up.

Well, all that is now beat by the lamest of them all. This jackass decided to wear his bluetooth headset during the movie. The bad thing about it was the bright blue light that flashed every 3 seconds! Why would anyone wear that in the film? it'd have to be hard to hear.. every time that jackass spoke to his kids, the rest of the back row felt like we were coming in for a landing. I was close to throwing an icecube from my cup at the back of his head. What type of dumb ass decides that he is too important to remove his headset? He's not in the secret service. Only excuse I can think of is that he forgot it was on. I don't see how, with a big bright flash every 3 seconds. Our eyes have a big enough zone to see it. Only thing could be that he is truly an a**hole. These are the type of people that will not survive if there is an apocolypse. Good thing about that happening is 75% of the people will die; for the simple reason of stupidity. Survival of the fittest.

Go see Iron Man.
