Iron Man
The "Iron Man" DVD came out the other day, so I spent a fair amount of time watching it with the bass turned way up...Great flick. There's explosions, hot women in bikinis, just enough character development to keep things moving, and more explosions.
I never got into Iron Man when I was reading comics, but I know enough to know the major players from the book were kept, and that the basic plot is fairly intact, if updated.
After seeing the movie, I want to go out and read the comic.
Now, I can be a fairly harsh movie critic. I delight in finding continuity errors, plot holes, and any other issues. So when I say it took me 3 viewings to find ANYTHING wrong with this flick, and then it was a fairly esoteric medical issue, it's really high praise.
It missed a five-star rating on the Joe-Bob scale, but only because of the mandatory one-star deduction for no nudity.
Four stars. Ted sez check it out.

Ted,
I think you've nailed the review. Perhaps directors of this type of film should shoot a few Joe-Bob scenes for the Director's Cut DVD release.
