Seeing as it's still new enough in the cinema, I thought I'd do a review of the new Iron Man. I went sometime last week, and is honestly one of the best movies I've seen in ages.
Robert
Downey, Jr. is back as everyone’s fast becoming, favourite superhero, Iron Man,
in the sequel Iron Man 3.
Director
Shane Black comes together with Marvel Studios to produce this summer’s
blockbuster. Not only a sequel to Iron Man 2, it also follows
the box office hit, The Avengers.
In the wake
of the alien invasion of New York, Tony Stark (Iron Man) is suffering from
insomnia and panic attacks. However, as the American broadcasting airways are
hi-jacked by terrorist ‘The Manderin’, played by Ben Kingsley, threatening to
kill The President of the United States, Stark is forced to step into the suit
once more.
The film
certainly doesn’t fall short of humour, with Tony Stark’s quick whips, sarcasm
and undeniable charm, Downey, Jr. is utterly at home in the role. Contrast this
with Ben Kingsley’s fantastic one-liners, adding some light relief to an
intense turbulence of events, keeping the audience chomping at the bit.
No action
movie would be complete without a damsel in distress, while Gwenyth Paltro is
simply loveable as Iron Man’s other half, Pepper Pots.
If you’re
going to see this movie in cinemas, definitely opt for 3D. The graffics are
impeccable, and would be an insult to the creators not to experience 100 tonnes
of metal flying before your eyes.
Unfortunately, all good things must come to an end,
and although it is unclear what the future holds for Iron Man, it seems as
though this could possibly be his last solo debut.
Check out what I wore here!
