Ticks all the boxes

Rating: 6/10 (9 May 2013)

There aren't any great surprises in Iron Man 3. If you enjoyed the first couple of Iron man movies the chances are you'll like this one as well.
The movie is obviously at it's best when Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) is showboating. As with the first couple of instalments there are plenty of scenes where this happens. The character isn't really fleshed out any further though. The villain of the film would also have benefited from a couple of extra scenes to flesh out their character. The film isn't a masterpiece, but it's a pretty pleasant couple of hours of mindless fun.
I saw this movie in 3d, but don't really think that helped or hindered my enjoyment of the movie. Save yourself a couple of bucks and watch the film in 2d!
