Iron Man (Ultimate Two-Disc Edition + BD Live) [Blu-ray]
Suit up for action with Robert Downey Jr. in the ultimate adventure movie you?ve been waiting for, Iron Man! When jet-setting genius-industrialist Tony Stark is captured in enemy territory, he builds a high-tech suit of armor to escape. Now, he?s on a mission to save the world as a hero who?s built, not born, to be unlike any other. Co-starring Gwyneth Paltrow, Terrence Howard and Jeff Bridges, it?s a fantastic, high-flying journey that is "hugely entertaining" (Joe Morgenstern, The Wall Street Journal).
You know you're going to get a different kind of superhero when you cast Robert Downey Jr. in the lead role. And Iron Man is different, in welcome ways. Cleverly updated from Marvel Comics' longstanding series, Iron Man puts billionaire industrialist Tony Stark (that's Downey) in the path of some Middle Eastern terrorists; in a brilliantly paced section, Stark invents an indestructible suit that allows him to escape. If the rest of the movie never quit hits that precise rhythm again, it nevertheless offers plenty of pleasure, as the renewed Stark swears off his past as a weapons manufacturer, develops his new Iron Man suit, and puzzles both his business partner (Jeff Bridges in great form) and executive assistant (Gwyneth Paltrow). Director Jon Favreau geeks out in fun ways with the hardware, but never lets it overpower the movie, and there's always a goofy one-liner or a slapstick pratfall around to break the tension. As for Downey, he doesn't get to jitterbug around too much in his improv way, but he brings enough of his unpredictable personality to keep the thing fresh. And listen up, hardcore Marvel mavens: even if you know the Stan Lee cameo is coming, you won't be able to guess it until it's on the screen. It all builds to a splendid final scene, with a concluding line delivery by Downey that just feels absolutely right. --Robert Horton

Iron Man (Ultimate Two-Disc Edition + BD Live) [Blu-ray] Reviews
Not to thrilled with producers selection of the lead man. Lot's of action and special effects.
DVD's. theres truly a difference with bluray VS reg. the movie itself was awesomegood acting, nice storyline, super graphic scenes.and the graphics on bluray makes it SO MUCH BETTER. just totally worth it.
We saw this in the movies and thought it was a great movie. So we decided to get the dvd. You'll like it too.
Fun, engaging, movie with good acting by all cast members. This movie isn't just geared for kids either, but also great for adults too. Nice special effects and good storyline. Not too long nor too short. The length of the movie was perfect. I am glad that both adults and kids may enjoy watching this film.
The movie looks like it did when i saw it in theaters. The BD Live features are kind of cool, especially if it's your first BD Live title, but it shouldn't be the primary reason to buy this movie. This is one of those Blu-Ray movies you should have in your collection.
