survive by his own devices, relying on his ingenuity and instincts to
protect those closest to him. As he fights his way back, Stark discovers
the
answer to the question that has secretly haunted him: does the man make the suit or does the suit make the man?
Review: "Iron Man 3" does what most third entries in movie franchise don't do,
turns in a great movie. This holds up very nicely next to the previous 2
installments, and I'd say it's probably better than "Iron Man 2" and
about the same as the first movie. Here, Tony Stark(Robert Downey Jr.)
is haunted by the events of the Avengers and finds himself obsessing
over creating and perfecting new suits. He is constantly trying to
figure out new way to protect Pepper(Gwyneth Paltrow), and make the
suits better and better. Then he placed in the cross hairs of a
terrorist called the Mandarin(Ben Kingsley). Going any further than
that would be a disservice to anyone who hasn't seen the movie, because
there are quite a few surprises and twists, that I didn't see coming at
all. Very unconventional super hero movie, which is great because it's a
true breathe of fresh air. It's not your typical good guy vs. bad guy
movie in a lot of ways. All the performances are great, and it really
leaves you with a sense of "how are they gonna do another one?!" Marvel
is battling a thousand when it comes to their movies and they continue
that streak here. This is the first must see movie of the Summer and a
great way to kick off the summer movie season. Also, stay after the
credits, it's pretty awesome.
