If you like funny, action packed, twisty, and great superhero movies thethen Iron Man 3 is for you. It stars Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark/Iron Man,Gwyneth Paltrow as Pepper Potts, Don Cheadle as Colonel James Rhodes, Guy Pearce as Aldrich Killian, and Ben Kingsley as The Mandarin.
Iron Man 3 is set after The Avengers and Tony Stark is still dealing with the aftermath of New York. Then, The Mandarin ( a great Ben Kingsley ) begins to attack. Tony tries to defeat him but the Mandarin destroys his house and Tony barely escapes and must recover and defeat the Mandarin.
Iron Man 3 is also funny with some unexpected twists in the 2nd half. It is witty all the way through, and one of the twists is very funny. RDJ once again is great as Tony Stark and his performance only adds to the humor. There is also a section in which he and Rhodes work together that is very funny with both actors doing a great job. While there is humor, there is also a more dramatic side. Stark’s house is destroyed and he must recover to save everyone.
The mix of drama and humor is almost a mixture of Marvel movies and Nolan’s Batman trilogy. There is the humor and action of Marvel movies, with the drama of Nolan’s movies. The mixture is a success. Combining them with just the right amount of each. The action set pieces are spread out throughout the movie. When they happen, they are large scale sequences with great visual effects and many characters involved, with lots of explosions covering large locations. As the movie progresses, there are several twists and turns. While I will not spoil any of them, I will say that one of them is very funny. Overall, Iron Man 3 is a funny action packed terrific superhero movie with twists.
Iron Man 3 is rated PG-13 for sequences of intense sci-fi action and violence throughout, and brief suggestive content. I give Iron Man 3 a super A.
