A great action packed flick, Iron Man 2 is definitely well suited to being released during a holiday weekend. Although, I am not sure Mother’s Day weekend is the best choice. Maybe they should opt for Memorial Day or 4th of July for the 3rd movie.
Iron Man definitely had me on the edge of my seat. Robert Downey Jr. and Gwyneth Paltrow have the same great chemistry as the first movie. My favorite new character, Black Widow, played by Scarlett Johansson, definitely steals the lime light. She has great ninja movies and an even cooler outfit. This is the first female super hero that packs a punch and keeps all her clothes on. You go girl!

Nic says:

Iron Man 2 is definitely entertaining, but what Amy forgot to mention is the awesome bad guys in this movie. Mickey Rourke did a great job as the Russian nut job Whiplash, and Sam Rockwell is excellent as Justin Hammer.
My favorite parts of the movie, however, are the hidden treasures found in its references to other Avengers characters. I love when Tony Stark uses Captain America’s shield to level his machine, and the scene after the credits has me even more excited for the next character’s movie!
