Plot Summary: Based upon Marvel’s iconic Super Hero, “Iron Man” tells the story of Tony Stark, a billionaire industrialist and genius inventor who is kidnapped and forced to build a devastating weapon. Instead, using his intelligence and ingenuity, Tony builds a high-tech suit of armor and escapes captivity. Upon his return to America, Tony must come to terms with his past. When he uncovers a nefarious plot with global implications, he dons his powerful armor and vows to protect the world as Iron Man.

I am a big fan of Robert Downey Jr, always have been but as far as Iron Man goes, I know nothing of the history of the character. The trailer looks ok, certainly a watch on DVD but I think i’ll leave it till then!
