Iron Man 3

I'm a Robert Downey Jr.'s "fan-girl". I love all of his works especially Sherlock Holmes and Iron Man! He's not only good looking for a man his age but he's one hell of an incredible actor. You know how most women are crazy about Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt? Well, I was never crazy about those two actors but man, I've to admit I'm more attracted to Robert Downey Jr and Bruce Willis (in terms of older actors). If either one of them proposed to me, I'd immediately say I do without any second thoughts (but the probability of this happening is zero per cent).

Anyways, I just have to put that out there before I proceed with my Iron Man 3 review. I watched this movie twice. First time in 3D and second time in 2D. Have you watched it? What's your thoughts on it?


Before I went to watch this movie, I re-watched Iron Man, Iron Man 2, Captain America: The First Avenger, and The Avengers. I'm really glad I did. Well, it's not necessary for you to watch Captain America: The First Avenger. I re-watched it mainly for The Avengers. If you're like me, wanting to have a better grip and fresher memory of what happened in the past movies, then you probably should re-watched it. The third installation of Iron Man connects back to Iron Man and The Avengers.

SPOILERS
If you remember vividly, in Iron Man, Tony was captured and a man called Yinsen saved his life by installing an electromagnet into Tony's chest. And that was the beginning of iron man. In Iron Man 3, it brings us back to 1998/ 1999's New Year's Eve party, where for the first time Yinsen met Tony and had a brief conversation with Tony. However, Tony was just being Tony. Yinsen did mentioned about this meeting when he and Tony were held captivated by the Ten Rings.

And in The Avengers, Tony intercepts the missile and takes it through the wormhole toward the Chitauri fleet. The missile detonates, destroying the Chitauri's mothership and leaving their forces disabled on Earth. Tony's suit ran out of power and he fell back through the wormhole, but Hulk rescued him from crashing to the ground. In Iron Man 3, Tony was being taunted by this event, he is also seen to be suffering from panic attacks a few times (three times if I'm not wrong).

Iron Man 3 is unlike the first two installation of Iron Man. I have to say I love this more. Mainly because of the suits. It's more "cool", if you know what I mean. If you don't, it simply means that he once again upgraded the suits. Remember in Iron Man 2, when the suit is not being used, it is the size of a brief case? Well, in Iron Man 3, the suit is cooler than ever. I don't think it can get any more cooler than that but I'm waiting to be surprised in Iron Man 4. 


My favorite scene from Iron Man 3 is probably when Harley was trying to get Tony to take him along. Harley (played by Ty Simpkins) is just so adorable. As for the action scene, is when Tony summons all his iron mans controlled remotely by Jarvis to the Mandarin's location, where Pepper and the president were held captivated. That was a mind blown scene, if you ask me. And of course, every girl loves some fireworks right?

Overall, this is one hell of a movie that everyone should watch. If you think Iron Man 2 is awesome, wait till you watch the third. It really outdid itself with this one.

And if you're going to watch it, please wait till the credits are over before walking off the cinema (like I did when I first watched it). There's an extra scene, where Tony was__________________. All I can tell you from what I know from watching the extra scene is that, it is not the end of Iron Man, although it looks like it was. I thought it was and what a bummer if it is but thankful, there's more.

I CAN'T WAIT FOR IT! IT CAN BE THE CONTINUATION OF THE AVENGERS OR IRON MAN, I DON'T REALLY CARE. I JUST WANT MORE IRON MAN AND CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT TONY DOES NEXT WITH IRON MAN. 

I'm sorry if this review doesn't help much. It's more of what I like in this movie rather than a full write up review. For those who have not watched it sorry for the spoilers.
