Rating: 5/10 (30 April 2013)

Iron Man 3 is first installation from Marvel Studios after more than great The Avengers. Everyone knows that is hard to go on from such successful movie, even at Marvel Studios, so they put out their strongest weapon from Avengers team, Iron Man.
Trailers have been promising, showing that movie will be a little bit darker than previous two (like Dark Knight trilogy) and that Iron Man will have to face his biggest enemy The Mandarin. Movie starts good with few flashbacks from the past and introducing us two of the main characters Aldrich Killian (solid performance by Guy Pearce) and The Mandarin (Sir Ben KIngsley). Like I said it started promising, first half of the movie is amazing. But then it goes wrong, really wrong.
I am not really familiar with Iron Man mythology, but i know one thing: The Mandarin is Iron Mans biggest enemy. He is like Joker to Batman or Lex Luthor to Superman. But what did writers do? They made horrible twist which tells us that Mandarin is just a drunk junkie actor who is payed to act a terrorist and he has no powers at all. I think that every Iron Man fan should be insulted. This was the first lie from trailers and from advertised storyline. Next thing is atmosphere. Most of people predicted that atmosphere will be dark, but it finds out that movie is almost a comedy. First that "Mandarin" twist, then some things in final fight but I wont spoil the movie even more.
On the other hand, there are good things of the movie. Robert Downey Junior is amazing as always, Ben Kingsley played his role really good too (scenario is bad, not his performance). Don Cheadle gives solid performance too and he deserves more screen time. Action sequences are good.
Anyway, this movie was a big disappointment for me because, it had so potential, but instead of that it ruined Iron Man franchise and showed no respect for work of its creators.
