The Robert Downey Jr.-starring action flick "Iron Man 2" kicked off the summer blockbuster movie season over the weekend. The movie earned $133.6 million, which beat the $98.6 million the first "Iron Man" movie brought in during its first weekend in theaters in 2008. Internationally, the film has grossed $194 million, bringing its global total to $327.6 million.
"Iron Man 2" failed to break the weekend record though, that title is still held by "The Dark Knight," which grossed $158 million in its opening weekend. "Iron Man 2" stands as the fifth highest opening weekend ever.
I saw it on IMAX and was blown away by not only the technology (I'm kind of a nerd). But the performances from Mickey Rourke, Don Cheadle, Sam Rockwell (his dance scene was slick) and ofcourse "DaMan" RDJ! Robert Downey Jr. is the only guy I know who can go from "Sherlock Holmes" to "Tony Stark" and not miss a beat.
Keep Bangin dude! Gotta see Iron Man 2...in theatres now.
P.S. don't be a doof like me and leave the theatre too soon. Wait for the bonus scene after the credits. Now I gotta go back.
