Everyone seems to think this movie was awesome, but no-one can explain why. What, in your opinion, made this movie not terrible?
Bad: Plot didn't make much sense. Sure Tony Stark is a genius, but he advanced science 100 years while sitting in a cave.
Good: I don't care about the nonsensical plot, because it's a movie and I can accept huge leaps of logic. The point is that Robert Downey Jr puts on an awesome performance. You said that the movie contained lame jokes every two minutes, I respect that opinion, but I thought it was genuinely funny.
I also was really appreciated the way that they kept the sappy romantic sub-plot to a minimum. Just when it looks like it's going to get cheesy, they turn it around.
Plus the ending kicked ass. Can't wait for the sequel.
