Iron Man Reviews
Orange County Register
Craig Outhier
Led by Downey's career-resurrecting performance as billionaire weapons peddler Tony Stark, it proves just as indispensable to the movie's giddy escapist appeal as the seamless CGI effects and eye-popping pyrotechnics.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
At the end of the day it's Robert Downey Jr. who powers the lift-off separating this from most other superhero movies.
Film.com
Laremy Legel
There are a few scenes in Iron Man that make you realize why we rely on giant studios and big budgets come the summer months.
RogerEbert.com
Jim Emerson
Not only is it a good comic book movie (smart and stupid, stirring and silly, intimate and spectacular), it's winning enough to engage even those who've never cared much for comic books or the movies they spawn. Like me.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
Iron Man is an action sci-fi blockbuster extravaganza that provides cartoon thrills for thinking people. It's the best movie of its kind since the second Spider-Man movie four years ago.
Denver Post
Lisa Kennedy
Directed with joyful verve and a nice pinch of cultural nerve by Jon Favreau, Iron Man reinvigorates hope in the joys of the summer movie. It is simple -- and not so simple -- fun.
New York Daily News
Joe Neumaier
Actually feels like a classic comic book: fast, furious and flip. Forget about superheroes with love problems and tortured souls.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
With its first self-financed production, Marvel has produced one of the best superhero movies ever made, pure popcorn pleasure for its special effects, its story, its villain, and its hero.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
Robert Downey Jr. gives a nicely sardonic performance as Tony Stark, a rich playboy and the brilliant heir to his father's weapons manufacturing dynasty.
Reverse Shot
Adam Nayman
Clever and cogent beats idiotic and incoherent, and Iron Man is spryer than the overwhelming majority of films in its budget range.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Calvin Wilson
Downey is at his charismatic best, rendering believable Stark's transformation from self-indulgent jerk to socially conscious crusader.
CNN.com
Tom Charity
A supremely confident, well-tooled entertainment. It's bound to be the early pace-maker for the oncoming glut of summer blockbusters.
NPR.org
Bob Mondello
If every superhero franchise had a Robert Downey Jr., the genre might actually be watchable again.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
The gadgetry is absolutely dazzling, the action is mostly exhilarating, the comedy is scintillating and the whole enormous enterprise throbs with dramatic energy.
Boston Globe
Wesley Morris
Downey could have taken a tragic tack. But he has fun just figuring out how to make the armor suit work. His sarcasm and almost drunken Tony Curtis body language transform the scenes of Iron Man.
Decent Films
Steven D. Greydanus
Smart, sardonic and more than a little silly, Iron Man is a successful super-hero movie that never takes itself too seriously.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
I liked the movie. Sometimes I liked it a lot. I just never fell in love with this superhero origin story in a way that had any lasting impact.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
When Iron Man is zooming above bejewelled southern California, I expected a thundering lyricism but instead settled for some routine CGI stunts. I suppose it's asking too much for a great actor to be matched up with a great director.
Slate
Dana Stevens
This middle section, in which the newly energized Tony tinkers with his emerging superpowers like a kid in shop class, is the movie's finest and funnest hour.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
Iron Man is an unusually good superhero picture. Or at least -- since it certainly has its problems -- a superhero movie that's good in unusual ways.
