Good film but villain twist is disappointing

Rating: 7/10 (21 July 2013)

In my opinion this was a good and enjoyable film but the villain twist was disappointing.
The cast was solid and all put in good performances as their characters with Robert Downey Jr standing out yet again for his portrayal of Tony Stark/Iron Man and the soundtrack went great a long with the action.
I have to say though I was annoyed with how they chose to deal with the villain 'The Mandarin'. At the start Ben Kingsley looked very mysterious and intimidating and it definitely looked as if he was going to be a great and powerful villain with Guy Pearce's character looking like a worthy sidekick but to then turn him in to just an actor and making Guy Pearce the 'real' mandarin left me disappointed.
Overall though this was still a good film and I am excited to continue to watch the build up for the next Avengers installment.
