Throwback Thursday: Iron Man 3 is better than you think
By Mark Lynch
In conclusion
One of the best things about Iron Man 3 was the fact that we saw more Tony Stark than Iron Man. Tony is the reason we love Iron Man to begin with. Seeing him be more than just his armor was just what the character needed at this point – especially after the debate he had with Steve Rogers in The Avengers about him being nothing but the suit.
Tony basically turned into James Bond, but he didn’t need anyone to create his gadgets. It was amazing. He was solving most of the problems on his own – another aspect that many of its critics critics didn’t appreciate, but should. After all, he isn’t Black Widow or Steve Rogers. He just wasn’t built for these kinds of missions. However, he still got the job done.
Long story short (too late), Iron Man 3 isn’t the worst movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It’s far from it. Is it everything we wanted after The Avengers or as good as the first Iron Man? No. Both of those movies are something that will hold a special place in our hearts. Iron Man 3 was something different, and because of that, it deserves another look.
Give it another chance with an open mind and you’ll enjoy it!
