The Massive One went to see Iron Man 3 tonight… and it was good, I liked it better than two. Going in I’ve heard mixed reviews through podcast and written, but I’ll make my own judgment, if you will. And The Massive One enjoyed it… Well, there was that whole fake Mandarin situation which I thought was a cop out. I’m not a huge Ben Kingsley fan, but he was good until he got goofy.
People have said, there wasn’t a lot of Iron Man action and or Tony Stark in the suit, but I like the direction it went. And how the story unfolded was Massive! Like the rise and fall of Tony Stark.
The heat seeking people reminded me of something out of Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance, but I digress. They were fine. Now then! The parts that I thought was Massive… When Stark’s mansion was getting blown up and he through the suit on Pepper that was a mark-out moment, like Hogan slamming Andre or Punk dropping the pipe bomb. Another moment of Massive was when Pepper returned from the flaming ashes of fire to take out Aldrich. I mean I didn’t see that coming, thought she was dead. I guess you can’t kill fire with fire or a Johnny Storm type.
The Avengers / Aliens in New York references was a good nod and glad to see Stan Lee back with the perfect ten. Overall, it’s a buy when it hits baby blu. And I’ll give it a three star frog splash. Massive.
