He Is Iron Man!


Well, last night Matthew and I became the last two people in OKC admitted to the sneak preview of Iron Man.


Well, it's pretty darned good.


It was amusing seeing Jeff Bridges, the long-haired ranter against corporate greed in the 1977 King Kong remake, epitomizing corporate greed in this film.


Robert Downey, Jr did a fine job as a slovenly, rich jerk who is suddenly confronted with the effects that his selfish actions have on others. He was also pretty good as tony Stark, aka Iron Man.


Gwyneth Paltrow was so good I didn't know who she was for a while. She would be gorgeous if she had some meat on her bones.


Overall, a fine film for the would-be hero in us all. The special effects were "believable" over all, if over the top.


So, go see Iron Man!
