Best of the Series - don't believe the whiners!

Rating: 9/10 (6 May 2013)

Contains Spoilers I just cannot believe all these whiners who are shredding this movie to bits. This was the best of the 3 IM movies so far.IM1 was OK, first in the new franchise. Ridiculous ending where Stark admits he's IM. IM two came up with this bogus villain. Really not fulfilling. Pretty slow story for a superhero movie.
My expectations were low for IM3, but when I saw the Mandarin was in it, I said, great, finally one of IM's longtime villains takes him on. Yes, I will admit that seeing the Mandarin reduced to a puppet was hard to take. But you know, already the franchise had changed so much from the comics, that I said, WTH, just go with it.
So the Disney aspect takes over, and you just have fun. Seeing Stark suffer physical and mental pain was a great story line. Seeing Pepper finally get more action was great. This kid, a little annoying, but hey, again, it's a Disney film, so they all have kids. Get over it.
RDJ was fantastic. Again. Guy Pearce also fantastic as the bad guy. I loved this movie. Just jettison your attachment to the old IM comics, and you'll enjoy it too. This is from a longtime IM fan, proud owner of IM#1 comic (the real IM#1)
