Karl French Financial Times Still, if the film is ultimately disappointing it is in part because it begins so well, and there is a lot to enjoy before the over-the-top final act. Oct 7, 2018 Full Review Deborah Ross The Spectator I like Downey Jr, usually, with his dark wounded eyes, but here his performance veers between going though the motions and a look which seems to say, "Hey, what film am I doing again?" Aug 23, 2018 Full Review David Stratton At the Movies (Australia) What gives this its distinction [is] Robert Downey Jr, who is terrific. Rated: 3.5/5 Jun 15, 2015 Full Review Cory Woodroof For the Win (USA Today) Everything is owed to Iron Man, a film that launched a moment and set a standard that hasn’t always been reached. Feb 27, 2024 Full Review Joseph Garcia Dynamic Duel Podcast An exceptionally well-made debut for Marvel Studios. Fun, engaging and bolstered by a tour-de-force lead turn by Robert Downey Jr. Rated: 4.5/5 Jan 18, 2023 Full Review Nicolás Delgadillo Discussing Film When all is said and done, this is, without a doubt, the Robert Downey Jr. show from start to finish.

George C As this movie is technically a childhood movie of mine, I still think that it's just one those origin story movies, and we all know as to how I feel about origin movies, and I think that origin stories are kinda boring Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/10/24 Full Review Tony J Great movie and great start to the MCU. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/02/24 Full Review Audience Member Abrindo o MCU da melhor forma, esse filme é gigante, icônico, perfeito, não consigo encontrar defeitos nele, talvez só o vilão que não me convenceu muito, mas eu relevo. É uma pena que a Marvel não conseguiu manter o nível desse filme na trilogia do Homem de Ferro, esse é sem dúvidas o melhor dos 3. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/02/24 Full Review Hailee B Great story for Tony Stark. It's an awesome movie man he is such a charmer and a jokester I love it...I'm finally rewatching Marvel movies but this is in chronological order, I love Gwyneth, the great actress in this movie, and man that tension is so real and hard you feel it so much. Can't wait to watch the second one Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/29/24 Full Review Priyan B Great movie 👍 8.3/10 Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/18/24 Full Review Josiah H It wasn't my favorite.
