Iron Man - 2 hours of awesomeness. This movie was really good. Amazing special effects and actors/actresses. Don't expect this to be like Spider-Man, colorful and bright. This movie is far better than any Spider-Man movie, in my opinion.
If you like action, explosions and guys in armored suits pounding the hell out of each other, you gotta see this movie.
Be sure to watch through all the credits, to see something at the very end.
The Forbidden Kingdom - I don't mind Jacki Chan or Jet Lee. Honestly, I've never even seen a Jet Lee movie before, but I may look into more of his work.
Anyway, this movie is about an American kid (I'm guessing high school age) that gets sent to another world/time, where he needs to bring the staff of the Monkey King back to it's owner... the Monkey King.
I recommend this movie, to those who like martial arts, with some comedy.
Their are 2 things I didn't care for in this movie though.
• During one of the fight scenes, one of the characters gets injured and the blood is obviously digitally added. Right after the injury occurs, the fight continues and the blood is then gone, only to appear again later. This could have been better, if they used something like... fake blood that just stayed on the clothes throughout the scene.
• At the end, while the characters say their goodbyes, one of the characters that helped the boy on his quest, isn't shown and they don't explain why or where he is. I feel they should have had him there or at least showed the boy say goodbye to him at another location.
