First, heck w/ all the old men who want The King's English to be their measure for what constitutes a great flic. This movie was funny, visually stunning, and action! I can't wait to get it on Blu ray!
Loved the effects. Action scenes were a bit sparse over more chatty, witty banter moments. Main villian was whipped to easy. Iron Man 3 need a bass-ass villian to really test IM's metal! I found the film a bit less exciting than the first.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

What can I say? After the screening I immediately(as well as others)went to seek out a theater mgr and demand my money back! The entire film was projected in a dim lighting and poor focusing, and poor sound system. The opening featurette(shown while the house lights still on and totally unvisable!) Then the end of the film came, and like many in the audience who waited for the extra features to be shown, the house lights never came up, and neither did the extras adverrised for weeks online! No extended Scarecrow dance sequence. No outtake audio If I Only had a brain number. After a few minutes, the house lights did turn on and a lot of upset people exited the theater.
The film is interestingly fun, and full of laughs and killer effects, and sight gags as Tony Stark develops his flying suit. The final builds up to a showdown w/ his business partner using his own early suit designs w/ modifications and his update power source ripping from his chest. Tony battles against failing power reserves, and succeeds in destroying his enemy w/ the help of Pepper Potts. Robert Downey Jr. was abosoutely perfect for the role and marvel hit this flim way out of the ballpark for beings it was their own studio. This film never dissapoints the audience with wow and laughter. I will get this film on dvd(not Bluray) when it comes out! Can't wait to view bonus material! Well done Stan Lee!
