Overall, it's entertaining but this movie digresses too far and too often. When it's just Robert Downey Jr.and whomever, the movie is at it's best, it has a heart. Otherwise, not so much.

And yes Hollywood, 13-year old boys will like tight, solid movies with a simple compelling plot. They don't have to be tantalized with Scarlett in tight leather for a two-minute martial arts session that leads to absolutely nothing plot-wise in the middle of the climactic showdown.

Screen-writing by demographic. I've seen worse, for instance the remake of Mighty Joe Young (everyone should see the original then the remake as a case study in how to ruin a simple, compelling storyline) but this one's pretty obvious.

Not to scare you off, I enjoyed the movie for the most part. But the obvious button pushes, Hollywood insider humor and gonad-targeting stifled much of it. That's from me, who's beyond the demographic, and my much younger cousins who are smack dab in the center.
