Follows on from where the first film left off pretty much.

Felt like there was a lot more action/"cool" scenes than the previous film, although RDJ is still spectacular as Stark.

For all the stick that this films gets because of its almost over-indulgence of its action scenes, I think the story is fairly solid and entertaining. It's got everything it needs to be a nice link between the first film and what's to come in the Avengers film.
