We love movies as much as we love gadgets and to top it all, there’s nothing like one that’s filled with gadgets and technology from the future. Thats why we’re introducing the “Gadget Movie” section. We’ll be reviewing/blogging movies that revolve around gadgets and technology, both new and classics. So, bloggers and reviewers who’d like to participate and add their inputs are most welcome.
We’re starting this section with this month’s latest release Iron Man, starring Robert Downey Jr as Tony Stark, a multi billionaire weapons manufacturer and a genius inventor. He lives in a mansion that’s powered by the latest state of the art artificial intelligence. Things start to spice once he gets abducted by terrorists after showing off his latest missile to the U.S. military. He manages to escape them thorough combat, after putting together a iron suit fitted with jetpacks and flame throwers only to reach home to create the real masterpiece. The process and the test runs he goes through to create the ultimate suit, is a delight for any gadget fan. Finally what you see is a stunning suit of armor, built with titanium and features jet-packs on the feet, rockets in his arms and shoulders, pulse lasers in the palm of his hands, and an AI super computer in the helmet. The rest of the movie is all about how he tries to save the world from the terrorists who posseses the same weapons made by his company.
The final combat is between the Iron Man and his partner, Jeff Bridges who has also created a similar suit, but much bigger, whose only motive is, world domination. Other supporting actors includes Terrance Howard, a weapons specialist from the US military and a good friend to Tony Stark. And of course Gwyneth Paltrow, as Tony’s executive assistant, who takes care of all Tony’s mess and eventually falls in love with him.
The CGI effects is spectacular and mind boggling. I’d say it is a must see for all gadget freaks out there! Do key in your comments and share your opinions and for those of you who want to know more head to the official site right here.
