The first installment with Downey is one of my all time favorite movies. Iron Man 2 fell flat. Too much talk, not enough action. Don Cheadle's performance was weak as usual. Terrence Howard is a far better actor. All the actors seemed to be just going through the motions. Weak story line. What's with this Ivan Vanko character? Some sort of mishmash of villains from the novels and a weak villain at that. Weak enemy robots. All they seem to be able to do is salute and get blown up! Weak nemesis in Justin Hammer. At least Scarlett Johansson was nice to look at. Weak final battle. The movie is just plain weak. We need Super Heroes not comedians! Batman still rules!
