"Iron Man 3" is smart, intelligent, brilliantly written and acted, action-packed, and a whole lot of fun.
When Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) 's world is torn apart by a formidable terrorist called
the Mandarin (Ben Kingsley) , he starts an odyssey of rebuilding and retribution.
In my opinion, Iron Man 3 is the best in the franchise because it takes some serious turns and some "ballsy" twists, that might work for some, but for diehard fans, they will be disappointed.
The performances are solid. Robert Downey Jr. isn't playing a character anymore, HE IS IRON MAN! He embodies that character so perfectly that you believe now that HE IS IRON MAN! Gwyneth Paltrow is really good as pepper potts. Her role was more present than in The Avengers.
Guy Pearce is pretty good as Aldrich Killian. Guy Pearce is really good at playing the supporting villain. Guy Pearce is always good at playing villains. Don Cheadle is good as War Machine now Iron Patriot. Iron Patriot is alot cooler in my opinion. Ben Kingsley is fantastic as The Mandarin. He embodies that character so well, that you almost believe, he's a menace. Supporting roles include Jon Favreau as Happy Hogan, Rebecca Hall as Maya Hansen, Ty Simpkins as Harley Keener, James Badge Dale as Eric Savin, Stephanie Szostak as Brandt and Paul Bettany as JARVIS. They are all good.
The action scenes are awesome. Especially the Malibu Mansion attack setpiece. Which probably was the best part of the movie. The Air Force one attack was pretty good too. It was involved with real stuntman and wasn't done with a green screen. The docks battle is really fun too because Iron Man interchanges with his suits a lot.
The 3D is really good. Most of the 3D is enhanced by the action scenes and when they're talking the 3D doesn't really shine. It is still worth the extra money.
*SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS*
Minor Spoiler alert (It would've been major back then, but I still don't want to take chances)
Still here, good!
Still here, also good! (SPOILERS NOW!) THE MANDARIN IS FAKE! OR IS IT???? Why do I say or Is it? It's because, when "Thor The Dark World" got a blu-ray release, a short called all hail the king explained that Trevor Slattery (Kingsley) had stole someone's identity, and of course IT IS the mandarin. So, DO NOT WORRY! There is a real mandarin AFTER ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Overall, Iron Man 3 is a fun, action packed movie. It's the best Iron Man movie yet and I'm glad I decided to rewatch it.
Movieaficiondo1 is giving Iron Man 3 an A+
