Paltrow is tough and endearing when she's onscreen, which isn't often enough. As the Osama bin Laden-esque villain the Mandarin, Ben Kingsley steals the movie, and I wish I could say precisely how without spoiling a wonderful surprise. Guy Pearce's torso, showcased shirtless in a fight scene, steals the movie right back.

2. The plot is clever (Ben Kingsley is superb as the ‘terrorist mastermind’), morally complex-and confusing. My 7yo was bored and disappointed. 3. The baddies look like humans, not robots, and their badness manifests as fire erupting through their skin and eyes. They sometimes explode completely.

Iron Man 3 is pretty unique in blockbuster terms. The film is not only a direct follow-up to Iron Man 2 but it also plays as a pseudo-sequel to The Avengers, with Tony Stark explaining that “Nothing has been the same since New York.”
And it’s a very different Stark that we meet in this movie. Not the arrogant playboy philanthropist that we’ve come to know and love over the course of three films, but rather a shadow of that guy, struggling to deal with the fact that he has encountered 'gods', aliens and a Hulk, and plagued by nightmares, anxiety and post-traumatic stress.
His situation quickly worsens as, via voiceover and flashback, we are transported to Berne, Switzerland on millennium eve, a night when Tony unwittingly created demons that more than a decade on would come back to haunt him.
We meet Maya Hansen (Rebecca Hall), a brilliant and beautiful scientist who wants to cure all human beings of illness by creating the next iteration of human evolution. And Aldrich Killian (Guy Pearce), another scientist with a brilliant mind but multiple physical disabilities. Stark being Stark sleeps with the former and ignores the latter, and we are soon back in the present day, where the fallout from that decision comes back to bite Tony rather aggressively on the behind.
A sequel that rights the wrongs of Iron Man 2. Here's hoping that Shane Black has more superhero movies in him.
