Iron Man 2 Movie Review

Where the music...

You know one of the reason I went to see Iron man 2 in the theater was the fact that AC/DC had done the music for it and you know I wasn't that disappoint when I found out that they only had two songs in the whole film one at the beginning and one at the end. so I can only ask where was the music from them to give them the whole sound track, because they one where not in the film like they should have been when it came to the opening of the film (which I'll come back to) and second they only had songs at the end and beginning of the money so in truth this is would not be the soundtrack to the film. The songs on the album would have been great at times during the movie but they just where not there and it was a bit of a downer. You know I didn't pay that much attaction to the music part of the film when the movie was being made or when the review where coming out I just say that they did the soundtrack and thought it was going to be great to hear the music loud and proud during the film but it just wasn't there and it became a disapointment to me. I really enjoy having AC/DC loud and pround in my car when I'm driving around so them not being there in the film was a bit of a disappointment, but as the movie went a long it figureed oh well I guess it just wasn't ment to be there and they changed things in the end which is a big disappointment to us AC/DC fans or fans of any band when you hear they are doing the soundtrack for a movie and you fine out that they only have one song in the film and they do the complete sound track so now you either have to find the true soundtrack or go and find the songs by the,self somewhere else and put them together for yourself. so in the end if you go and see the film for the AC/DC music your going to be disapponted...

Alright the opening...

Now we have all seen on T.V. or trailer where pepper kiss the iron man helmet and throws it out the back of the plane and he jumps out after it and lands at the expo or what ever it is, well guess what. It's not in the Film. it's opens with Stark fully dress in suit and all walking and jumping out of the plane by himself. What happned here. I know must of us where looking forward to seeing the complete seen, but they changed it. I know things have to be changed for time and what not but to show something like that for months on end and then not have it in the film is just wrong. You need to cut something else down or just have a longer film, and in this time and age a 2:15mintue film is not out of the question to keep a let's say two mintues seen in. You know I never like when they do something like that. Show you part of a movie for months in a trailer or T.V. spot and it's not there when you go to see the film, because that small part is one of the things that drew you to the film in the first place and then it's just not there. another disappointment with this film something that was advertised and then just isn't there you can almost see where I'm going with this because it telling you one thing but heading some where else...

You know this isn't the first time I have seen something for a movie and then when I go to see it it's not there. and one of the really big ones that still get to me this year because I see the movie all the time either on T.V. or cable is Major Leage. and it's where Rick (Charlie sheen) Is getting his glasses, They cut the hell out of the seen, because in the trailer they did a few diffrent pairs or something I don't remember completely anymore but I do not it's not what they orginaly advertised and it sucks. I hate when they cut things like that. When it came to the Lord of the rings you knew from before dsy one that there was going to be two versions of the film. The theater and then the Dirctors cuts one was three hours and the other was four hours, lucky for us we could watch the dirctors cuts at home and we could watch all three films together, but that still don't mean they should show us one thing like they did here with iron man 2 and major leage and give us something else because that seen is what is stuck in your mind and one of things you wanted to seen when you went to see the film..

Missing the Old Fart..

Yeah I was right I missed the grumpy old white fart that is Nick Fury. I was more the Willing to Give Jackson his shot and I went in with most of an open mind about it, but in the end he just didn't do it for me. I eye patch was all wrong his adittue just wasn't the Nick I new and one of the most biggest things of all that wasn't there that makes Nick Fury, Nick Fury is the Cigar. He was to have is cigar with out it it's just a guy with an eye patch tring to act tough and I'm sorry Jackson just didn't pull it off for me. Now don't get me wrong Jackson is a good actor and he did an ok Job here, but it's just not the Old Fart that I like to see and I have had time to get use to the idea between one knowing he was going to be Nick ever sence I watch all of the first Iron man movie and second I have watched the Two avenger Cartoon Movies they have out. So I have had time to warm up to the Idea. Unfortasinly it just wasn't the guy I knew so I missed him, but who would you get to play the Old fart in the first place is a good question. Not many people that old are in good shape to play someone like Nick so It would have been a hard casting call even if you aged who ever got for the roll. I know I have been out of comics to long to know what is really happening and where they are pulling these guy's and story lines from so the Grumpy old fart my not be what they where going for, but it's what I know and I'll miss it oh well...

The End of the Film..

So yes I stayed for the whole film like I new I should and the part after th credits was just a little intrduction of what was to come next. was it worth it. Yeah I guess so. gives you and Idea of what things are going to look like fot the Next film or what they might look like, and if you are all woundering they talk about the avengers during the film so it wasn't that it was THOR that was at the end of the film which I wasn't sure about if it was going to be either the Avengers, Thor or Captain America. It just gives you something to look forwarded too in the end I guess. now you know what you might see if you see the whole film and when the cridets started to roll people started to leave I said out loud not to loud that it wasn't over and only two people sat back down.

Over all....

It wasn't bad. beside the few things I pointed it I think I'll buy it when it comes to DVD may get it on Blu-ray just because, but it wasn't that bad of a movie. Better then the first. I don't think so as a matter of fact I think it could have been longer on story line and thank god they where not tring to cut in a complete origin line here. They keep what they had and moved it a long just showed you a few more things in the life of Tony Stark and more of the past, so they just up one person to being bigger in the movie and only had one true enemy in the film which was nice keep things running. I hate when they do add a character and you end up with 5 diffrent people and three new orgins you have to put in before you get the story moving and then the movie is only 1:55 the movie sucks Look at batman and Robin for that one. So yeah Iron man 2 go see it rent it when it comes out. Think about buying it if you want in the end Ill say it's was a good movie..

Personal Note off subject...

I got to stop losing my key's. eariler in the week I dropped them outside a restraint just off the freeway and today I left them in the car well I went to see the movie, No one stole my car but they where right there in the ingition you could have sat down started it up and drove away. Hell you could have driven straight to my house unlocked the door and robbed me blind for that matter, but everything was still there. Just got to stop doing that...
