Iron Man 2 (2010)


Well, here it is. The 2010 sequel to the 2008 sci-fi action blockbuster starring Robert Downer Jr., Don Cheadle, Scarlett Johansson, Gwyneth Paltrow, Sam Rockwell and Mickey Rourke.

Mickey Rourke is BADASS!

It's a no-brainer. A lot of over-the-top action. A lot of jokes that don't make you laugh. I didn't even smile once during the whole movie. Some of the humor goes even to the border of being embarrassing. But it's still a quite entertaining movie. The actors do a quite good job and the action is exhilarating.


What did you expect from a Formula 1 race in an Iron Man movie?


The story is VERY stupid. Iron Man drives F1, gets drunk, throws a party and in the stupidest scene he finds a new element from a very unlikely place... After which he builds some sort of high-energy laser, points it at some triangle, and the triangle turns into the newly-found element.

Forming chemical elements unknown to modern science is sweaty work.

I give it 3 stars. It's OK entertainment, but don't expect anything deep from this one.

Bad movie physics

We all know that sci-fi flicks are rarely more SCI than they are FI. Explosions and sound in space, dodging lasers, and all that stuff. To sort out all that mess, check out this cool report card at io9! Check out also io9's tribute to Starcrash if you're bored! And then go read my review of it.

This blog is about sci-fi movies. But it's not going to be your average blog. There's going to be blood. Tits. A lot of B-movies, some stinkies. But a lot of good ones too. I'm going to review them according to my own taste. Criticism is welcome anyway, please comment! ZF
