Name :
The Iron Man
Language :
English
Whats the story about :
Hero wants to do good. Villain doesn't want to. So they fight.
So whats new :
"IRON" man.
So whats old :
Everything else.
Whats good :
Special effects and the hero's acting
Whats bad :
Take the old superman movie. Cut the old villain out, Bring in Terrorism and a new villain. Cut the "Super" , blue attire out and bring in "IRON". Throw in a heroine for side dish. U get Iron man.
No Honestly, what do I think :
Well it is definitely a movie worth watching once. The acting is good and the concept albeit old, is really good. The special effects require special mention. The robots and the gizmoz are just amazing. The hero is an arms dealer.. well arms designer u can call. He gets kidnapped and is taken to Afgan. Here he sees that the very missile he had designed for the Army are being used by terrorists to kill. The terrorists give him one day to build a new missile. Instead he builds the IRON man. To be more specific, builds the components necessary to become the Iron man. He fights, kills, flies and escapes. Once he escapes and back home, he refines the Iron man structure and becomes super powerful. He destroys all his missiles in the terrorists camp by flying to their place and flying back home. However little does he know that his own partner is the one who smuggles the arms. His partner finally gets hold of the secret energy source with which the Hero built the Iron man. So there u go, u have another "I don't know what metal" Man. Then they clash, hero wins, villain dies and movie ends.

I couldnt agree more with every word in your review. The gizmos were the most impressive of 'em all :) And the best thing abt this movie for us was "It was Shashu's first movie in a theatre"!!! and HE LOVED IT :)
@bhuvan -
absolutely.. i think the sci-fi part saved it from becoming a trade mark children's movie like the previous ones'. and . tx for stopping by.
