People may say this movie is a waste of time and doesn't add anything that much to the story of Tony Stark. But the charm of Iron Man 2 is the realism of an icon-turned hero. The portrayal of Tony in this movie feels relatable. Iron Man 2 is the most indie-Esque movie in the MCU. Cause the focus isn't really on the plot but on Tony Stark's reaction to the story. It's like the price of fame and the lack of balance between being Tony and Iron Man. The best way to watch this movie is to be laid back until the 3rd act of the film. It's an odd movie and feels so out of place. But unique at the same time.
