I saw it two weeks ago. I thought IT FUCKING ROCKED!! The reason that I liked it was because it didn't feel like a superhero movie. It felt more like looking at the world from the perspective of someone who designs weapons for a living. The special effects, character development, and humor are excellent.
There's some funny scenes of Tony Stark trying out his iron man suit and he has these robots that are helping him out. One of the robots is responsible for fire control, which has a habit of spraying Tony when he is not on fire. *Laughs* Tony even says to it at one point, "Every time I look at you I think I'm gonna catch on fire due to spontaneous combustion."
And don't worry, that's only a very small, brief sample of the kind of humor that you'll get in this movie. XD
Jeff Bridges does a fantastic job of playing Tony's partner, who ends up fighting Tony at the end of the movie.
My overall opinion is go and see it! It's one of those very few movies that's actually worth seeing this year. The only other movie I'm looking forward to is The Dark Knight, then I'll be done at the theaters this year.
I give Iron Man a 4 out of 5. Why 4 instead of 5? I thought that the final battle scene was a little anti-climatic.
