Iron Man III

Loved it!! Just loved it. 


Sequels are often tired and not much more than a retread of the original.  Not so with the Iron Man series, and the third installment did not disappoint. 

Tony Stark is just a witty, dry, and arrogant.  Pepper is actually more interesting than in the first two movies because her character was a bit more fleshed out, but, she did not overshadow Tony, which I was a bit concerned about when I saw some of the previews.  Without giving away the substance of the movie, I will say that I hope the ending is indicating a fourth in the series, but, the popular opinion is that the Iron Man series is done after the next Avengers movie. In my opinion, at least one more story could be told, but, who can say if the actors and creators would be up for it.

As for this particular movie, I found the story to be compelling, the action amazing and thrilling, the cinematography fantastic, and the finale satisfying.  There were a few surprises, not too many.  Oh, and if you stay until after the credits, which we always do, you will be given a little fun treat.

The PG13 rating is well deserved, mostly for the realistic effects.  You do not need to see it in 3D to enjoy it, which is great for those of us that just cannot watch a 3D movie without getting dizzy. 

Iron Man III, see it.
