The movie is really fantastic. I got a chance to see it Thursday. It's well shot, well written, and the acting is actually Oscar worthy at times. That's pretty bold for a comic book movie, which usually has crappy and camply acting then justifies it by saying, "but it's just a comic book movie." Well, not this one. It takes itself just seriously enough that you can watch it critically, but it never takes itself so seriously that you think you're watching a drama. I think it's a perfect blend.
For the record, I'm not a comic book fan and I don't know crap about Iron Man... I'm the furthest thing from a "fanboy" you can get. I just like the movie a lot.
