Not an Iron Man Movie

Rating: 2/10 (25 April 2013)

Iron Man 3 was shown midnight Wednesday 24th (Tuesday night New Zealand time): This is my warning for American audiences.
Lets dispense with the no spoiler spoiler, to not spoil the movie I should tell ya what happens. 1 It is NOT an Iron Man movie - it looks like one, and it has Robert Downey Jr (doped to his eyeballs), but Iron Man never takes off - I'm still waiting! 2 The storyline is written by an extremely unimaginative 3 year old. 3 All the actors in this movie are appendages to RDJ. 4 The plot holes are so numerous they all merge into a Black Hole near the end to completely obliterate any remaining trace or concern we might still have for whatever happens next. 5 There are a lot of explosions, so if you ever start to wonder what might happen next... now you know. The director Shane Black obviously likes them and uses them liberally in exchange for any story. 6 The special effects suck. 7 The only 3 things that failed were: The acting, the screenplay, and the script. This movie was everything 'The Avengers' was not. IM3 is described as an Action Sci-Fi Thriller, which is a pity as RDjr thought he was in a comedy. Go on, go see this piece of waste effluent, and near the end you will be rooting for the bad guy. I'm sure all who were part of the making of IM3 suffered greatly.
