There were so many of us, we had to separate into two groups! Well, not really. Unfortunately, we did get a bit separated; some of us saw the 6:30 show and some of us saw the 7:10. Post-movie, everyone took the opportunity to converse. There were also a lot of new people; always nice to see.
Iron Man 2 is, of coursed, based on comic books and that seemed to deliver just what Mary was looking for: "Iron Man 2 had action, humour, cool costumes & good ol explosions. Everything I want to see im my comic book on the big screen!"
Laurie was also impressed but had some critiques: "Overall I quite enjoyed Iron Man 2. Lots of laughs in a fairly predictable, but still fun to watch, storyline. "Most" of the characters were quite enjoyable. Tony Stark saves Gwyneth Paltrow at least three times; her character - twice and her overall performance - once. --zing-- Seriously though; can a movie really go horribly wrong with Robert Downey Jr in it? I think not."
I'd seen the movie before but enjoyed it equally the second time. It's not the perfect film but it's highly enjoyable. My only complaint is that they replaced Terrence Howard with Don Cheadle. I much preferred Howard's characterization of Rhodey; much closer to the comics.
That's it for this month. The poll for our June outing will be posted on Tuesday, June 1.

Looking forward to the next OUTing.
