good movie. Not as bad as most of people where saying.
6/10 in my book, for now.

The only thing that really piss me off was the 3D conversion.
Shittiest conversion ever. And that was the only version that was available in my country. No 2D for me.

I swear, if Thor 2 will be shown only in 3D i won't bother.
Gonna watch it online or wait for BlueRay. [frick] this. Same goes to Captain America :(

I too am not really a Mandarin fan, but I thought the twist was awful.

Reason being that there was so much more they could have done.

Firstly I understand avoiding the Asian stereotype, I completely agree with that, but you can write character who isn't a cliche.

Also, this is a Marvel universe that has introduced Aliens, Gods with Hammers that control lighting, and much more...so I just can't believe there was not a way to introduce the ten rings in a more sensible way...heck their were 9 realms, why not have a ring come from each realm and a last ring represent all the realms, each granting him a different gift, you don't have to stoop that in Asian culture to overly cliche the character.

I felt they missed out on a whole east vs west / Tony vs what he doesn't and never will understand (That doesn't mean it is magic)

Lastly I felt with Tony's PTSD they made the same mistake with his drinking problem: They took something that is quite a serious condition, which would actually provide the character with a great deal of depth should he fight and overcome his problem, but they turned these moments into comedic outlets so thus I never took the condition seriously. It was never "Oh my, poor Tony another panic attack he must be going through some rough stuff" instead it felt like "Haha, here comes a panic attack, i love these as he always does funny things during these"

Nice find Levi. I actually use to watch Nostalgia Critic video reviews all the time.

I agree with his brother...it's sad that the best villain we got out of the Iron Man trilogy was Obediah Stane.

Pathetic.

What they did with mandorin would be like if in TDK we found out the mob paid some guy named Mike to dress up like a clown and rob their banks...then Batman gets drawn to him and the mob's like "surprise, we're the real joker cause we fooled you." Really stupid twist, would've been better if Mandorin was the real bad guy and Guy Pearce got used again to parallel the film's opening...nope, they thought it was better to take a giant dump on the character.

Ironman 3 was probably a 6/10
