Iron Man 3

Iron Man 3

After getting ourselves wasted from last year's The Avengers, it's business as usual for the (currently owned by Disney) Marvel to pool in as much sequels as they can and this year, we seen Iron Man and Thor getting sequels for 2013. But first, let's talk about the third installment of the heavy hitting Iron Man film.

In Iron Man 3, Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr) gears himself once again as the venerable Iron Man and would you look at that. Seems that Iron Man's getting himself a new look for the third film! No longer the Mark 7 Iron Man as seen in the previous two films and also last year's Avengers but the one Tony Stark equipped for Iron Man 3 is the new Mark 42 suit. Seems that the production team really knows how to make some drastic changes for Iron Man around here and this new Mark 42 Iron Man suit really hits the spot but here in the third installment, it's not the suit that matters, it's the man who's risking everything.

Villains are everything but a major high-level threat against Tony Stark but for 3, there's a new enemy called The Mandarin and as any Marvel comics fan might tell you, this mysterious terrorist, the one Iron Man faces against, is the kind of baddie who wields power from his own intelligence. However, there are some major differences from this kind of villain. In the comics, The Mandarin is half-Chinese, born to a rich Chinese father and an English aristocrat. Here, he has no Chinese connections but dons his hair in a bun and has oriental-looking robes. Still, he's a sinister threat to the world and with Stark cut off from technology, only his willpower can unmask The Mandarin's evil plans.

The movie may lack some thrills from the previous installments but the storyline is epic indeed. This movie feels like you've been riding yourself at the world's most deadliest rollecoaster but with all the added fanservice that will keep this movie answer the demands of many Marvel fans. The film's director, Shane Black, sure knows where to put his money where it matters and this result to some high-speed thrills that sends them all the way to the edge of the atmosphere and with the pulse-pounding performance of both Downey, Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle, Guy Pearce, and Ben Kingsley, this movie can't go wrong. There are so many reasons why to watch Iron Man 3 but there is only one; IT'S THE BEST IRON MAN FILM EVER, YET. This film is a heavyweight iron champion, it's heavy in effects, it's heavy on the epic storyline, and it's a champion for Marvel for creating the best Iron Man experience fans can get.
