As a story, it was pretty predictable.
Good guy, bad guy. Fight to the death, bad guy loses.
Good guy finds love in girl who was in front of him all the time. Got it.
Certainly the technology component was pretty cool and the effects were worth it.
When the movie came out, I heard/saw a lot of people saying “greatest movie of the year.”
Hype was high.
Expectations were high.
Result for me: walked away impressed and entertained, but saying “yeah, pretty good.”
Check it out on Netflix: Iron Man
