It's really good - best Marvel comic book movie yet.
Better than X-Men 2? Get outta town.
Yup. Much less cheesy grimacing, cooler and more plausible gadgets, the best CGI work we've EVER seen in a superhero movie, tighter story, more character-per-actor(smaller cast) and MUCH better action. The X-Men movies I enjoyed (X2 is the best, then X1, never even saw X3), but I felt they featured made-for-TV-movie fight choreography, with the exception of the Nightcrawler scene in X2. Must be where they put the majority of the budget.
Also, Robert Downey Jr. out-acts everyone in X2 under the table all by himself. He IS Stark.
Tell us what you think after you see it.
