Iron man 2 was absolute shite. I was being force fed stupid.
The dialogue was nothing but waffle which went on for far too long, and generally went nowhere. The plot, if you can call it that, was nonsense. Convoluted nonsense.
If it wasn't for Scarlett Johansson I would have walked out.
If you want action, watch Die Hard. Iron Man is somewhat lacking. With the exception of the last half an hour or so, there was far far too little.
It goes for almost 40 minutes without so much as an explosion or car being tossed into the air. Daytime TV is more exciting.
Gah.
I agree with you in some parts.
Definitely too much dialogue,the plot was weak,main bad guy sucked(not Mickey Rourke but the villain),Scarlett didn't have much of a role and some parts were very boring.
Overall 7.5/10

@Ratchet – I don't care what the reason is.. I just found the movie too dull, and too dark. Not dark as in plot-wise, but dark as in scenery. I mean, would a few bright colors hurt the mood?
Anyway, I'm not saying that it is a bad movie, I can see some people liking it, but overall, its just another modern-day action movie.. except with “Robin Hood” (although not really robin hood…) as the main character. Nothing spectacular happens at all. No surprises.

Actually he does become a romantic character near the halfway/end of the movie

Ok.. thats just stupid to say. The whole movie looks like it was shot in greyscale. It is appropriate for some movies, but I don't think it was appropriate for this movie.
My main point is that this movie was nothing special, not even good imo, as it pretty much tried to re-invent the Robin Hood character.

I think Parn is trying to say that the film was given a wash with the old fag-ash filter. No primary colours, no warmth, just muted and drab.
Some directors seem to think that making everything miserable to look at somehow makes it more real.
Again, I haven't seen the movie so I'm talking generally.
I did, however, watch The Proposition the other day. i ordered it at random and was pretty happy I did. It's a slow burner but still has a healthy dose of the bloody stuff. The cast are perfect and the music is one of the best soundtracks I've heard in a while.

saw Harry Brown not as good as i thought it would be still Michael Caine gave a top notch performance
the story just didn't really grip me ,plus i felt there where a few plotholes and ending was pretty standard stuff looks hopeless then he prevails with some help
when will these villians learn to search their desposed foe's of their hidden weapons and phones
on a side not a got a damned parking ticket because of this movie so that reduced my enthusiasm for this movie after coming out

Why bring that kind of crap up? Nobody minds a bit of adult humour but there's still such a thing as bad taste.

Ummm,PoP the Forgotten Sands isn't a movie…I will go and guess that you are thinking about PoP:The Sands of Time but that movie isn't out yet.

It was actually good?
I know the third one was complete crap, and this one didn't look any better. I wont judge it until I see it.. but it looks pretty trash right now.
