This movie is a very entertaining watch, it has many great scenes, but these scenes are all packed with different sub plots and it comes off as too much. There is setup for other movies that just makes no sense being in an Iron Man solo movie. The acting is great and so are most of the characters, with the exception of the extremely pointless main villain. Iron Man 2 was a step in the wrong direction for Marvel but luckily it didn't derail the franchise.
