Reviews from early screenings of Marvel’s summer blockbuster Iron Man have been glowing so far. Robert Downey Jr. reportedly makes all the right moves as the eccentric but brilliant billionaire.

“Marvel – ous,”  The Hollywood Reporter says. “The space flights and acrobatics over Los Angeles evoke Spider-Man,”  they go on.  “Yet the whole package is distinctly its own, a tale originated in the ’60s cleverly and logically transposed into today’s world.”

SFUniverse will have reviews of the film, video game and the new Invincible Iron Man monthly comic as part of our Tony Stark’s Best Summer Ever coverage. Is this franchise going to fly high enough to shake off the dreaded Grand Theft Auto IV launch? We’ll also be keeping you updated on films like the new Indiana Jones sequel, Hancock and Wanted among others. It’s going to be a fun summer to be a sci-fi fan.
