Iron Man 3 Is Not Worth It's Weight In Scrap Metal

Rating: 1/10 (3 June 2013)

I haven't seen the other Iron Man movies but did have the misfortune of seeing him in the equally awful Avengers flick last year . Yes, Iron Man 3 is every bit the Stinkeroo the Avengers was if not worse . Robert Downey Jr. again plays that smug and obnoxious creep Tony Stark you either love or hate . He seems to get nothing but delight from spewing out non-stop quips and one-liners throughout the entire movie . I wasn't sure if he was doing a cheap impersonation of James Bond or was suffering from a severe case of Tourette syndrome . Early on in the film, Tony Stark's Malibu dream house sitting on top of a mountain is attacked by a squadron of enemy helicopters . After the first missile detonates inside it should have been enough to obliterate the love shack and kill Tony and girlfriend Pepper . But in true cartoon style , they are merely blown from wall to wall and just barely singed . Several more direct hits are made as the bombed out house slowly tumbles off it's foundation and falls down the cliff . By then Tony's Iron Man Halloween costume has gotten onto him as he flies away to deal with the marauding aircraft one by one . While Iron Man 3 may not be any worse than your average run of the mill comic book action movies , I just couldn't wait for it to end . If you have the maturity of a 12 year old boy you may actually love Iron Man 3 . But for adults I would recommend you waste your time and money elsewhere . Not Hot ... PWH
