Not as good as the first one, but still pretty good. Sam Rockwell's Justin Hammer and Mickey Rourke's Whiplash both stand out. Hammer is perfect as someone who sooooo wants to be Tony Stark. And updating Whiplash from Mob thug to physicist turned Russian gangster works quite well. Cheadle is also excellent as Rhodey and gets some truly nice solo moments. And as a comics nerd I liked the less blatant little Easter eggs to tying the "Avengers" Marvel movies together. Like the news reports playing in the background of the Hulk's college rampage or the bit after the credits...
