7. Iron Man

Iron Man was a phenominal movie about a man named Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) who is one of the greatest inventors in American History. The movie starts out with Stark being kidnapped by a terrorist organization in the Middle East. While in captivity Stark is forced to work on one of his greatest weapons. While working on his missile he begins plans for his eascape. Once he is free Stark starts working on a new Iron Man suit. From here on Stark vows to fix the problem he helped create with his weapons. This movie has a huge number of famous actors that contribute a great deal of wonderful acting. Terrence Howard, Jeff Bridges, and Gwyneth Paltrow were a huge part of what made this movie what it was. Pepper Potts (Paltrow) plays Starks long time vital assistant who Tony couldn't live without. Rhodey (Terrence Howard) plays Starks long-time friend and liason to the United States Military.
This movie has won 2 oscars and 7 other awards, along with 42 other nominations. Robert Downe Jr. won an award for actor of the yeaar, it also won an award for the summer 2008 blockbuster award. Many of the other awards it was nominated for were for it's visual effects and it's soundtrack. These just help show that the movie was extremely well put together. It brought together all of the different pieces of a movie in a way that will be able to last for a very long time.I believe that this movie is an amazing one, and it is one of my favorites. I really like the visual effects in this movie like the scene when Iron Man goes to fight terrorists in the Middle East. This scene has a great deal of visual effects that wouldn't have been possible years ago. The music in this movie was extremely good as well. All of it was well placed and picked in a way that only an experienced person could do.
