Most of you likely caught the $309 million smash hit Iron Man 2 in theaters, but since when does that ever stop movie lovers from buying a film on DVD or Blu-ray? Come September 28th, you can get your second dose of Iron Man and War Machine when Paramount Home Entertainment releases the film as a one-disc DVD, two-disc DVD, and three-disc Blu-ray/DVD combo.
Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) is still enjoying fame and success, and he isn’t going to let a little government pressure get to him. On top of the Army trying to get their hands on the Iron Man suit, Tony must deal with rival arms dealer Justin Hammer (Sam Rockwell), as well as an angry Russian with a grudge, Ivan Vanko (Mickey Rourke).
Iron Man 2 may not have been as well received as the original, but when it’s being compared to a film that’s nearly flawless, that’s to be expected. There’s no word on prices yet, but between the alluring characters, mesmerizing action sequences, and impressive list of bonus material, any of the three buying options will be worth the cash.
