[HURAKAN]

I saw this movie yesterday and it's one of the best comic book-impired movies I have ever seen. It has a lot of action and it's funny. In Rotten Tomatoes it has a 94%, which is incredible for a movie of this genre. If you like this kind of movies, I recommend that you don't miss it.

By the way, this is the first of a trilogy. The second movie will be released in 2010.

It was LOADS of fun. Rober Downey was great. Iron Man looked and move great. The story was fun. It didn't take itself to seriously and that made it all the better. No, it isn't some timeless masterpiece, but it isn't supposed to be. Go see it.
And, the Enginner was the dashing hero. Yay for Engineers.

I agree. For a superhero of our imaginations, it looked very possibly real. It's not a magical power that you adquire but a machine created by a human.
