The most enthralling Marvel sequel

Rating: 9/10 (4 May 2013)

There are certain actors and certain production houses that are just predetermined to bring you on the edge of your seats every single time those veterans are there to display their prowess. Iron Man 3, well just like the 2 prequels, it was ripe with action sequences that are guaranteed to leave you spellbound. Certain scenes,especially the one where he pulls 13 people falling from an airplane to safety, are so scintillating and yet so immaculate that you cannot stop yourself from indulging with the rest of the audience in praising that moment. Tony is still the suave guy whose ingenuity and cogency continue to hold the audiences captive but the Mandarin, the main antagonist, is so impeccable in his execution that Tony has to refine his ways. With the wrath of Mandarin reaching more and more blatant magnitude with every strike and with the Mandarin now sighting the final destruction of a nation, Tony can only consort with his own intellectual brilliance and his own "toys" to become the savior yet again. Will he be able to pull off the decisive victory, will he be able to overcome his own internal demons to triumph against the most devastative of alliances. He may very well do that because ultimately, He is the iron man. But you gotta watch this one to know if he does that.
