Iron Man 2 Movie Review

Iron man 2 was alot of fun. I saw it tonight at 6 with my friend Matt, who I saw the 1st one with two years ago. 

So this sequel may not be as good as the previous film, but it was extremely entertaining. I loved the special effects and the villians. The main problem I had was the story. It went everywhere. But the film manages to save those scenes with action packed special effects that go way beyond the first film. 
I enjoyed Scarlett Johanson as Black Widow. What a great performance. Robert Downey Jr was good returning to to suit. Don Chedle played a better War Machine than Terrance Howard ever would have. Gweneth Paltrow was pretty annoying. She was another problem I had with the movie. All she did was complain to Tony the whole movie. It got on my last nerves. 

Many people said the end was bad, I disagree. Yes the battle was short but the special effects saved it. Bravo War Machine/Iron Man Team up. My favorite scene was during the end battle when Iron Man blasts off his lasers destroying all the robots. 

This film kicked off my summer and I hope you will feel the same kick as I did.

Final rating 8.5/10

P.S: stay after the credits like you did in the first movie.

Summer 2012: The Summer of Superheroes!

I was reading the Internet movie database and it listed a third Iron Man film slatting for a 2012 release. All I gotta say is "Bring it on Spidey" Spider Man's reboot is released that same summer as well as The Avengers and don't forget, Chritopher Nolan's 3rd installment of Batman. What a great summer for superheroes. Stay tuned for my Iron Man 2 review very soon.

Iron Man 2: Will it surpass the first one?

Thought 1: I have been reading early reviews for the much anticipated Iron Man 2 and I gotta say, they don't seem as good as the previous installment. However, its just a critic like you and me. I will still see the film and expect some great special effects and a solid story. I am planning on seeing it this coming Friday at Springdale 18.

Thought 2: I am really hoping this sequel will not flop like Transformers 2. Yes, it will make the cash, but will it deliver the spirit we know as Iron Man?

Though 3: I try not to spoil myself with all these reviews, but it's everywhere! It will be a big film this weekend and possibly the next coming weeks.

Thought 4: I want another Batman film very soon. July 2012 is too far away!

Well my review will be posted shortly after I see Friday's showing.
Be sure to check in

American History X Movie Review

American History X is one of the most important films ever made. Edward Norton and Edward Furlong star in this masterpiece. The story revolves around a Neo Nazi leader who is put in jail for killing 2 black men who robbed his house. When he gets out he learns his ways and trys to help prevent his younger brother from doing what he once caused. This film is violent and racist in many ways. the whites and blacks are equally racist to one another and gives us the question why we do these things. Edward Norton is at his best while a supporting cast including Edward Furlong equally impreses. a sad triumphant film. Yet it's one of the best. A 10/10
