JB#64 Iron Man (2008)


Staring: Robert Downey Jr.Gwyneth PaltrowTerrence Howard and Jeff Bridges
Directed by Jon Favreau

Fun stuff! See what happens when you put great actors in action movies too. I think that a lot of the time the big action movies rely too much on special effects and explosions. This movie shows what can happen when you throw some high quality acting in the mix too. Hollywood is getting smart! A lot of the movie was improvised as well because the final script wasn't complete when they started shooting, giving the dialogue a very natural feel.

JB looks like a bad-ass with his shaved head and beard. Playing Obadiah Stane, who ends up as Downey Jr.'s main nemesis (or as JB puts it, "another type of good guy"), JB still had that likability factor. But there is something churning deep down that comes forward in a few key scenes. Obadiah wants his company to succeed at all costs, and won't let Tony Stark, who has had a change of heart, stand in his way. I love it when JB gets rowdy!

Jeff Bridges talks Iron Man. How fast does his hair grow?:
