The long-waited sequel to the “Iron Man” has finally emerged, and is dominating this weekend’s box-office. As some movie-goers may know, the movies are based on the “Iron Man” Marvel comic books. Which follow brash-but-brilliant industrialist Tony Stark, played by Robert Downy Jr. In this new addition to the films, Stark has his back against a wall as he is left to survive on his own devices and has to rely on his ingenuity and instincts to protect those closest to him. Stark now has to answer the question that has been haunting him, does the man make the suit, or does the suit make the man?
The Iron man series as a whole has been very successful since the release of the first installment in 2008. Since then there has been multiple sequels, including “Iron Man 2”, “The Avengers”, and newly added to the list of successors is “Iron Man 3”. For those of you who don’t know the plot, Tony Stark is a playboy, philanthropist, genius, and entrepreneur. His company, Stark Industries, was left to him by his late father Howard Stark. The adventure began with a missile test in Afghanistan, when Tony was wounded and captured. He then secretly constructed the first “Iron Man” suit, and the story has taken off as an action packed story ever since.
Iron Man 3 picks up right where the series left off in “the Avengers”. After returning from New York, and a different dimension, he is stressed by the event. He gets severely shaken up when a terrorist named Mandarine threatens Stark and America. The film was a good addition to the series. If you are looking to be entertained with lots of action, and amazing visual effects, “Iron Man 3” is the film for you.
