The Invincible Iron Man

If you can't beat em' be a superhero right?You can't go wrong with $5 superhero films.Even if they don't hold the greatest reviews.My 5 star comes from the value of this product, and the entertainment value it holds to captivate young audiences, and myself (being a comic fan since my childhood)Go for the buy range of $5-$10.Thanks,Bucky Wilsonwww.facebook.com/bucky5676

If you appreciate the updates to the Superman mythology made by Smallville producers Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, you'll appreciate this updated version of Iron Man's origin. It was great to see shellhead's aquatic armor, the original robot-like grey suit, and the classic red and gold. The animators used more CGI here than in the Avengers animated movies, but it meshes well with the cell animation. The lava animation in the underground battle scene is excellent. The pacing is fairly good and the changes made to both Iron Man's and the Mandarin's origins were clearly wise decisions. Changes are good as long as they make sense. The changes made here certainly do, especially in today's day and age where viewers tend to be more sophisticated. If the storytelling for the 2008 Iron Man motion picture is half as good as this animated movie, it should be one of the best super hero movies ever made! If you're looking for an intelligent update of a classic super hero along with strong storytelling and well above-average voiceover work, look no further than the Invincible Iron Man! This is definitely geared for an older audience though. I can't see children warming up to so much dialogue. I can't wait to see Doctor Strange! PLEASE MAKE MORE IRON MAN ANIMATED MOVIES LIKE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (A stand alone Captain America animated movie would be a good idea too)

Overall I have to say that this movie was very well done. It is certainly better than the two Ultimate Avengers cartoon movies. The animation was great, I do like how they used 3-D graphics for the armors. The redesign of the grey armor made it look threatening, definitely much cooler than the original grey armor.I have a few critiques. I'm not sure I liked all the changes to Mandarin's storyline, and the very final battle with Mandarin was a little bit disappointing. All the fights leading up to it were great though. The movie had a good mix between action and plot, which I always appreciate. It's annoying to watch super hero movies that don't have enough action. Definitely a worthy buy for any Iron Man fan, and even people who aren't fans.

Great movie!! Is my second copy. I lost my first dvd, back when it first came out on the market. I order another dvd to have it as part of my collection. If you are a fan of the Superheroes Origin movies you should add this Movie to your collection.

Purists will no doubt be perturbed with the changes in the origin story. I enjoyed it, however. It's fun, true to the spirit of the characters and has excellent production values.The story uses the juxtaposition of the high tech world of Tony Stark against the ancient world of China to tell the origin of Iron Man. In about 83 minutes of movie, we get to see the beginnings of the character and a great battle against his enemy, Mandarin, using at least 4 Iron Man costumes. Rhodey is well featured and Pepper gets a few good scenes.The film will probably change the way I read Iron Man. My imagination didn't have his suit being so noisy. It probably will, now.The animation style is more subdued than the previous Ultimate Avengers films. Traditional 2D animation is used for backgrounds and people, with some CGI used for the Iron Man suits and the 5 elementals he fights. The CGI is not too overt, it just provides them with the capability for more dynamic special effects and better rotational motion.The DVD also features a brief documentary about the origin of Iron Man, with interviews with the films creators and Joe Quesada. There is also a 2-3 minute clip from the upcoming Dr. Strange animated film. I'm not even sure Dr. Strange was in the clip, but that film looks pretty intense. Speaking of intense, the Iron Man film is PG-13. I'm guessing this is because there are a couple of characters that are shot and killed and there is a mild scene of Tony and a bimbette in a hot tub. Nothing that will prevent me from sending a copy to my 7 year old nephew.It will be interesting to see if any elements from this film appear in the upcoming live action Iron Man film.

I like it !!
