This year we've had the return of The Hulk, Batman, and Hellboy to the big screen. But the undisputed winner, flying high above his superhero rivals, was newcomer Iron Man.
And now — delivering action and excitement from a superhero who boasts not only unique powers, but also irresistible charm, penetrating intelligence and a wry wit — he hits DVD.
Available in Ultimate Edition two-disc sets on both DVD and Blu-ray, as well as in a single-disc DVD, 'Iron Man' thrilled both critics and audiences with its captivating story and stunning visual effects. Called "spectacular" (by Rolling Stone), "a thrill-a-minute blockbuster" (Reel Talk), and "sheer exhilaration" (iafrica.com), the film features an all-star cast including Academy Award nominees Robert Downey Jr. ('Zodiac', 'Chaplin'), Jeff Bridges ('The Contender') and Terrence Howard ('Hustle & Flow') and Oscar winner Gwyneth Paltrow ('Shakespeare In Love') and was directed by Jon Favreau ('Elf').
Earning over $315-million in the US box office alone, 'Iron Man' lifts off with jet-setting industrialist Tony Stark surviving an unexpected attack in enemy territory and then escaping by building a high-tech robotic suit of armour. When he uncovers a nefarious plot with global implications, he dons his powerful armour and vows to protect the world as Iron Man. Straight from the pages of the legendary comic book, Iron Man is a hero who is built—not born—to be unlike any other.
The 'Iron Man Ultimate Edition' two-disc sets feature hours of bonus features that take viewers inside the suit of self-made superhero Tony Stark and his invincible alter ego. There are extensive explorations of the character's origins in a six-part featurette, as well as a seven-part in-depth look at the making of the film, a revealing documentary on the visual effects, Downey Jr.’s original screen test, deleted and extended scenes, a photo gallery of concept art and behind-the-scenes images on the set.
The single-disc edition gets bonus features like deleted and extended scenes.
To celebrate the release of the DVD, we're giving away 10 stuffed-to-the-seams hampers, courtesy of Ster Kinekor Home Entertainment. Each prize consists of an 'Iron Man' T-Shirt, key ring, mask, heat changing mug, and poster, as well as a 'Transformers' DVD and 'Spider Man 3' DVD.
