A fitting end to the trilogy...

Rating: 8/10 (5 May 2013)

A very well made film with the kind of top-notch special effects as we've come to expect from these guys. I'm not going to get into the 2D vs. 3D debate but I have to say I did watch it in 2D and I can't really see how 3D would have improved it. All the performances were excellent as usual with Robert Downey Jr. and Gwyneth Paltrow taking top plaudits (for me anyway). I also have to mention the young Ty Simpkins who plays a kid, Harley Keener, who befriends Tony when he's 'dead'. He played his part very well and we can only hope it leads to bigger things for the young man. I did enjoy this one though despite a rather complicated plot and the usual over-the-top fight sequence towards the end it's definitely worth a look.
