10 Things You Will Hate About Marvel Universe's Iron Man 3

If you're an average movie goer, you'll find Iron Man 3 simply OK. But if you're a Marvel fan, you'll feel very disappointed, because of all the Marvel Studios movies, Iron Man 3 is the worst adapted from the comics. Similarity with The Dark Knight Rises refers to the Mandarin, who in the comics is Iron Man's greatest foe and in Iron Man 3 it turns out to be a lamest twist ever.

After "The Avengers" everyone (Fact: "Iron Man 3" film was originally budgeted at $140 million, but after The Avengers became a huge hit, Marvel Studios and Disney upped it to $200 million in order to allow Shane Black to make the best movie he could.) were really looking forward to the so called "Phase 2" of movies about our favorite Marvel superheroes starting with "Ironman 3". Unfortunately this movie took a backward step. It was fairly slow but it also did have plenty of action. The story was simple, all the special effects were fantastic and RDJ did his thing again owning the screen as Iron Man. The downside the vulnerability of Iron Man and the lame enemies. I thought that it was great that Tony Stark was pushed to his limits but would have been better against a different foe, someone challenging on the technical side maybe. Instead we have some people that can annoy rejuvenate over and over again. This is supposed to be an epic conclusion, not a comedy romp. It felt like watching Lethal Weapon movie. Here are the 10 things that you will hate most about Marvel's Iron Man 3.

10. Gwyneth Paltrow has just been named the most beautiful woman in the world by People magazine, much to the chagrin of feminists who hate her blond slender blue-eyed frames, but to also get among the action - stealing the single most awesome moment in the movie in the process. While the talented Rebecca Hall is barely worth mentioning since her character is almost irrelevant to the plot.

9. The assault on Tony's mansion happens at some point in the morning, and the news of Tony's disappearance is in the newspapers by the night (that would have worked in the internet).

8. A highly advanced armor can be recharged with equipment a middle-class boy in a small town can acquire. Building gadgets with hardware equipment, HOME ALONE!? Iron Man who was able to withstand Thor and his lightening melts in 3000c heat. Warmachine gets disabled because a woman touched his hand. The iron suit, which is supposed to be powered by the arc reactor, a limitless power supply, needs to be charged like your iPhone.

7.  No explanation as to why some people blow up when injected with the Extremis virus. As everyone is saying, his armor withstands the forces of Thor and Aliens but fails miserably against the extremist soldiers and now are easily destroyed by trucks.

6. Shane Black may be a good director, but he doesn't know to make comic book stuff. Some examples: The Iron Patriot is wasted as is the whole character of Rhodey. The permanent changing of Iron Man armors for Tony is lame as is the mind (?) controlled Mack 42, because it gets boring to see it flying around after the third time.

5. This is no Comic Movie. Why? Because the director is no comic freak, you can see it, feel it in each and every scene. There are more than two hours of film and Tony is in his suit for how long altogether? 10 minutes? I know this movie should focus on Tony Stark, not his alter ego. But so did the first part and it was a comic movie in the sense of the word.

4. The direction of debutante Shane Black was disappointing as well, it lacked the artistic flair and the temperament that is needed to make a great film. This is further disadvantaged by a truly pathetic script that nobody in the cast could do anything with.(these actors deserved so much better) The special effects were okay, but very confused in terms of execution.

3. The worst case was poor Guy Pearce. He was completely miscast as Aldrich Killian, completely lacking the coldness and evilness that make the character so memorable. Pearce is a talented actor, but his skills are hidden beyond recognition in this movie, he just looked so uncomfortable and totally out of character.

2. If Tony Stark could have removed the piece of shrapnel from his body whenever he felt like doing so, why didn't he do that in the first two movies? If the armor suits need to be charged from external sources, why does he need a super-powered magnet- generator in his chest when a low-powered one is just as efficient? How come that the armor pieces can fly more than a thousand kilometers at extreme speed without losing much energy but the full suit loses most of that after a short flight?

1. Everyone was looking forward to see Ben Kingsley play a ruthless Mandarin. Instead, it all turns out to be a joke, and the Mandarin, Iron-man's arch-nemesis turns out to non-existent. So much for all the hype in the trailers. The writers probably thought they were smart in putting such a drastic plot-twist, but instead It left the cinema feeling deceived and disappointed. They should just have just stuck to the established storyline.

Looks Like Marvel Studios producers are sleeping in their pedestal after The Avengers success and thinking "it doesn't matter how good our next flicks are, people will still see them. Go in to this film with VERY low expectations and you'll be pleased. For those among you who don't care about the plot and just want flashy action and SFX, you'll be happy. This is unfortunately not a person-film and there's scarcely enough depth to fill a saucer. So all in all if you're looking for a quick watch everything blow up and laugh about it film this is for you, but if you're looking for the iron man you've come to know from 1 and 2 you better hope he finds himself in time the second installment of the Avengers.
