Iron Man 2 

 

Super hero films are generally more for the male side of the family. Men and boys enjoy the plucky hero fighting against astounding odds to save the day. Marvel has improved drastically over the years on their super hero films. Sure Stan Lee will tell you whatever new Marvel product is great. There are numerous themes in Iron Man 2 for people to digest. Being honest is one of them. Full disclosure is another one. Why being full of yourself is a bad thing. Tony Stark is one of the most human characters to come out of Marvel. He struggles with alcohol, women, and narcissism. A man from his father’s past will come out of nowhere and show Tony how wrong he has been. At the same time he has to deal with his own mortality. Tony is dying and must find a cure. The government wants control of Iron Man, and out of that conflict comes War Machine. Which reminds me, why was James Rhodes character changed? I liked the first one better.

Expect much of Iron Man 2 to revolve around violent content. There are multiple fights with highly destructive machines throughout the movie. There are also some enticement to lust issues in Iron Man 2. Iron Man does wind up saving the day, but we can not help but feel sorry for the villain. At least on some levels. Although he could have taken a better path.

The most disturbing part of Iron Man 2 is the language. I could not believe there were so many ‘R’ for Restricted words in this film. It was like getting hit in the face with a soccer ball. The music is powerful in Iron Man 2, and the acting is stellar.

There are a few extras like the commentary from the director that will interest fans. Iron Man 2 tells a very interesting story with multiple threads being kept in the air. The whole Shield angle shows the drive towards the Avenger movie. Plenty of well known actors are found in Iron Man 2.

Some of the topics for discussion that come out of Iron Man 2 is how to deal with being wronged. Do you take revenge? What do you do when you are dying? How should that be handled? How highly should you think of yourself? Should you share power you have created?
