WOW. Holy ****, I loved this movie. Let me put it this way, I went for the 10:00 showing Friday night and stayed for the 12:30 showing too. I have never seen a movie twice in the theater ever (well this one time, I took two girls on dates and they wanted to see the same movie, but that's different).
My nephew saw it three times because he went with his other uncle earlier in the evening.

I'm not going to spoil anything but STAY UNTIL AFTER THE CREDITS.
. He really did an outstanding job.
It's actually sort of interesting that the movie is so good because it doesn't really have too many "wow" scenes. It's not super action packed either, but it also doesn't drag with the story. There wasn't a scene in the movie I thought should have been cut, and there wasn't a thing missing from the movie I would have liked to seen added.

There were a lot of little hints and nods to the comics in the movie, things Marvel readers will pick up on. The soundtrack was awesome and I'll probably get it as soon as it comes out.

Robert Downey Jr. is freaking GENIUS as Tony Stark. I read in an interview where he actually had a hand in shaping a lot of his own lines. If that's true then he should do it all the time because he was totally believable as Tony through the whole thing. Even more amazing is the job Jeff Bridges did. Man, he was just chewing up the scenes he was in, and he makes one hell of a scary bad guy. Playing a villain is something I never figured him for but he pulled it off incredibly.

Speaking of Incredible... The trailer for The Incredible Hulk before the movie looked awesome. I wanted to see this movie after viewing the first trailer online, but seeing this second trailer really makes we want to see it. I always like Tim Roth as a bad guy but it looks like he outdoes himself in this role.

It was a great movie night, and remember STAY UNTIL AFTER THE CREDITS.
