Robert Downey Jr. disappointed with Iron Man 2

Robert Downey Jr. admits he wasn’t happy with Iron Man 2. The actor credits the movie series for changing his life, but has confessed he was disappointed with the sequel.

“The first one changed everything for me. And with the second Iron Man there were certain aspects that were dissatisfying and disappointing to me but at least they lit me right,” he said.
 
“The first one was a meditation on responsibility and an exploration of how a small group of people can take a two-dimensional idea and, if the winds are right, create something that makes people say, ‘That was my favorite movie of the year’…
 
“I love a good action movie — a Steve McQueen or Tom Cruise or Clint Eastwood, Bruce Willis or Mel Gibson in the right spot, and you smile and say, ‘That’s what this kind of movie is all about.’”
