Reception
James Christopher Monger from AllMusic gave his review:[2]
Composer John Debney had to contend with a near constant barrage of classic AC/DC songs when putting together his score for the second installment in director Jon Favreau's Iron Man series. Like in the first film where composer Ramin Djawadi established a memorable theme (Driving with the Top Down) for the famed Marvel superhero, Debney takes it forward with "I Am Iron Man", a rousing, heroic, old-fashioned blast of all American guts and glory that sounds ripped (in a good way) from an old A-Team episode. Antagonist Ivan Venko's theme is appropriately muscular and Russian sounding, while action cues are beefy and peppered with bursts of distorted guitar (presumably a nod to Angus Young's omnipresent riffage), resulting in a score that’s more than worthy of its narcissistic, heavily armored protagonist.
