Iron Man 2 (2010)

Director:  Jon Favreau
Starring: Robert Downey JR, Gwyneth Paltrow, Mickey Rourke, Don Cheadle, Sam Rockwell and Samuel L Jackson
Certificate: 12
Genre: Superhero
Awards: None

Iron Man is a superhero with an ego. Unlike other superheroes everybody knows he is Tony Stark (Downey JR). Unfortunately because Stark is a bit annoying he has made a few political enemies that want to take his suit and use it for the government. The bad guys in this film are Justin Hammer (Rockwell), an opponent in the arms industry that wants to create more Iron men so he employed Ivan Vanko (Rourke) who has tried to kill stark before and was going to be killed.

But Tony Stark has another problem, he is dying as the energy that replaced his heart is killing him so he makes his secretary Pepper Potts (Paltrow) the leader of Stark Industries. He has some fights with his best friend Colonel James Rhodes (Cheadle-new actor) and meets Nick Furry (Jackson) who wants him to join The Avengers.

Iron Man 2 is a good film and has some good fights and I can't wait to see The Avengers but i would have preferred Terence Howard to play Rhodey again. If you change the actor it confuses people.

****Good
