First and foremost: if you are an adult and you would like to identify yourself (a bit) with a fictional character then you have to chose a CHILD CHARACTER (Harry Potter or Lyra Belaqua for e.g.) because the fictional adult characters are so childish they need to be told not to suck on their thumbs. And where the moral would be: For a start we got a careless billionaire making megabucks on gun manufacturing and trading. Then he realizes that guns are bad (not spoiling the buzz about the moment how he comes to this conclusion...) And what's his next move? To build an armor full of missiles and set out self-judging like Charles Bronson in Death Wish. Great pattern for kids, huh?

Same childishness goes for the Actions Department: as if the people responsible for this crap were giving out Iron Man toys to some 5 year old kids and copied their playing with them, then added some CGI and tapped on each others shoulder for good work. Pityful.

My three stars needs some explanation then: one for good casting (even if it's wasted grossly) and two for the Iron Man outfit which is the only one so far (amongst the Marvel adaptations) that truly resembles the original.

Badly hurts that we're not spared from the sequel as it seems there is an audience out there that is completely ignorant.
