Fine If You Liked The Movie
The music on this CD is mostly for punctuating the action scenes in Iron Man. Those looking for a something with more emotional depth like Danny Elfman's "Batman" Score, or John Williams "Superman:TM" soundtrack should look elsewhere. This soundtrack doesn't have memorable themes like those two CDs.
This soundtrack served the movie very well though. If you listen to the CD, (and you've seen the movie) you'll probably be able to picture the scene during which a piece of music is used.
I liked it, and I'm sure I'll put it on from time to time over the next few months, but in all fairness, I recognize that it's probably because I enjoyed the heck out of the movie. Aside from the hilarious "Institutionalized" track by Suicidal Tendencies, there aren't any real gems on this CD.
