entertaining ,full of action but hollow

Rating: 5/10 (30 April 2013)

After the release of quality superhero movies like the dark knight, every time I watch a superhero ,i tend to compare it with dark knight.Any ways lets talk about good points about IronMan 3 :
1.The action:Action scenes have been short brilliantly .They are clear and no shaky camera. So full marks to the cinematography.
2.The Entertainment :The movies got a lot of it.It has nice funny moments and actors too did a good job .And this is exactly what we expect from a large commercial superhero movie. Don't we?
3.Robert downey Jr. :Needless to say the kind of actor he is.Sometimes he does such great job that he singlehandedly pulls the quality of the movies he's part of.He has done exactly the same here. So all you RDJ fans out there ,you guys are most likely to enjoy this movie a lot.
Now lets talk about the negative points of the movie:
1.First and perhaps expected one - lack of depth.In fact the movies got no depth at all.Just a lit bit of Drama into it which appears quite hollow and not something that will impress you. No drastic improvisations by Shane black which was a huge disappointment to me.
2.Poor story: The overall story is full of flaws, errors and ambiguities. A superhero movie story is always surrounded around 2 roles- the superhero and the villain. In this movie the superhero part is just fine but villain part is being built very badly and the story appears confusing and full of crap since the beginning.Ben knigsley did a needless job and the whole mandrine thing was crappy.
Bottomline : The movies is overall entertaining which is quite evident from the huge collections but has nothing that can touch your heart.At first it appears better than IronMan 2 and the Avengers but IronMan was certainly far better than this.RDJ fans are most likely to enjoy this movie.
Lastly , i would like to express my huge surprise by the metascore this movie has scored .It shouldn't have been more than 55 hardly 60. That just goes to show that Critics words can not be taken for granted ......Always.
