Iron Man 2 by Jon Favreau

I'm not going to waste too much time on this film because really what would be the point. It's going to make a bucket load of money. And the comic book fans will love it and even if they don't, all will be forgiven by the sight of Thors hammer as a tag on after the credits.

But I was left wanting a whole lot more. The game has been raised with Comic Book films with The Dark Knight and Kick Ass, but Iron Man is sorely lacking everything that these films had in spades.

I wasn't a fan of the first Iron Man and I'm even less of a fan now. At no point did I have fun in this film, at least the first one I did.

Jon Favreau who wrote one of my favourite films of all time in Swingers does a serviceable job here. He even quotes his own film by using a song from Swingers. It was a nice touch and probably my favourite part of the film, because I was also rewarded with seeing Sam Rockwell cutting up the dance floor. Rockwell seems to be one of the most under-rated actors going around. I really can't speak highly enough of him. When everyone else during the proceedings is getting a little too serious Rockwell tries to maintain a bit of fun, but seems to be let out to dry by everyone else.

See it, and wonder at the what The Avengers films is going to be like. This young chappy can wait.
