Iron Man 2 is the Third film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the second film in the Iron Man Franchise, and sadly its not one of those sequels that surpasses the original. While not terrible, Robert Downey Jr. is still as charismatic as ever and we get some great character introductions from Scarlett Johansson and Samuel L. Jackson, with Don Cheadle replacing Terrance Howard. (which in my opinion was a great replacement) The Story does focus more on The character of Tony Stark, which isn't bad but it's a lot of story and story with little pay off. The action in the end is great, the acting is on par, and Favreau is one of my favorite directors, but the film is just okay. I expected more, but I didn't get anything less.
