...Iron Man the unobtrusive speed and precision of classic comedy. An actor before he was a director, he's not content to let his stars play stereotypes, or even archetypes. Bridges and Toub, and Gwyneth Paltrow as Stark's gal Friday (the most attractive she's been in years), aren't slumming in the least. They're rising to the material, and elevating...

Over the years, the likes of convicted drug baron Brian "the Milkman" Wright (he always delivers) and Pete "Maggot" Roberts (convicted of selling tainted meat) have holed up there.
