I get the feeling that the initial reaction to IRON MAN 2 will be that it isn’t quite as good as the first film, but I think that will largely be because the first film came out of nowhere. Robert Downey Jnr’s Tony Stark was such an unlikely hero, such an unusually charismatic figure, that everybody seemed jolted out of their seats. Everything that was good about the first film is here in the second, only now we’re expecting it. In time, when the dust has settled and both films are equally canonised, I suspect the general consensus will be that they are of equal quality. And though the phrasing may be limp, the conclusion is not: IRON MAN 2 is up there with the best.
