Sorry, but this film was NOT anti-American. Smith must not be very aware of Tony Stark’s character. Favreau remained incredibly loyal to the Iron Man mythos, and he had to show Stark’s “transformation” in a couple hours instead of the tens of issues of comics (years) in which it actually happened.
BTW, did you notice that it WAS Obadiah Stane — Jeff Bridges, Stark’s 2nd in command — who was actually responsible for sending Stark Industries’ weaponry to the terrorists? Right under Stark’s nose? And, did Smith miss it when Iron Man jetted back to Afghanistan and wasted all those terrorists without so much a second thought? Stark may have decided to stop making weapons, but he sure as hell ain’t no milksop pacifist.
