I was entertained, but I had heard it was perhaps the best super hero movie ever, and it was from from that for me.

I didn't get into the hype. I wasn't expecting "the best super hero movie ever". I was looking for a good action movie based on a comic book story. And that's what I got. It helps to keep expectation realistic I suppose....

I liked Iron Man.
I enjoyed Downey's performance as well as Paltrow's. Jeff Bridges left me kinda cold. Wonderful special effects.

Spoiler:

I loved the super-secret-after-the-credits tag. Perfect casting for Nick Fury.
I got kind of lost with the time frame of when Bridges made his supersuit... When did he have time to do all that? Maybe they explained it and I missed it...

I thoroughly enjoyed it but I still call Spiderman 2 the best superhero movie. That and Superman I.

$100.7 million for Iron Man and $15.5 mil for Made of Honor. Wow. What a gap!

The passage of time was definitely all kinds of screwed up. But since I was entertained, I didn't care at the time and am willing to try not to examine it too much after the fact.
