I just watched it two weeks ago. I saw the general disdain for it back during the summer and figured I'd probably enjoy since expectations were low.

Not good.

Spoilers

I will say I enjoyed Kingsley once they pulled the curtain on the Mandarin gimmick.

I get what they were going for with the whole Tony Stark is the real asset angle, not his suits, but it still would have been nice to see at least a little vintage Iron Man arse kicking. It was fricking lame that he didn't have one fully powered, functional suit in the movie. Some of the jokes and one liners were just terrible also. The thing with The Mandarin stinking up the bathroom, then those girls running in an going "ewww" was so, so stupid

I watched this again with the wife the other day (She had not seen it) and I thought "maybe it wasn't as bad as I remember it". I was dead wrong, it was worse.

I'm glad I wasn't the only one. The entire ending was a complete mess. And say what you want about the Marvel movies: this one reminded me of the original Hulk movie. You spent the majority of an Iron Man movie with no Iron Man.

I'm assuming they will figure out some way to get him another suit prior to Ultron.

frick, I was this close to starting a thread the other day about how much better I thought it was after a rewatch. Glad I didn't

Still think it is easily the weakest of the MCU. I caught IM1 on FX the other days and it's crazy how bad the sequels are compared to it.

The trailers and Kingsley's narration made me so pumped for IM3...then I saw it and realized I wasted my money on hot garbage.

The plot sucked, I kept wondering "why is this entire thing happening?" but I liked all the tech and effects as well as RDJ as witty as ever.

Probably the most disappointing movie of the year. The previews looked so damn good, but it just faceplanted.

Gwyneth Paltrow wearing the Iron Man suit? Just pure awful.

Plus they ruined Mandarin. I really did not care for this film at all.

Me and my wife watched it last night .

I was very excited for it!!.....

But that was the worst marvel film by far!!! Tony was hardly iron man. Completely ruined his best villain by making him a actor!?! Wtf?!
How come his suit is nearly indestructible and can withstand space coldness. But gets tore apart with ease?

And what about Killian? Was he wolverine or T-1000? He couldn't be destroyed, but all the others could? Why was that, they didn't explain how he was stronger than the others, farted flames, and could regrow any part of his body? Why?

Also, why didn't Jon Farveu direct it?!

it was ok but with the amount of iron mans he created you think they could make it alittle more like iron man 1 and 2. Look people want to see iron man going in and being cocky and blowing things up. No the stuff we saw in this movie.

spoilers

WTF was up with that ending. Are they really closing out the iron man series?
