Iron Man 3 – The Worst Movie Of MCU Phase 2!
Iron Man 3 earned almost equal to what the first and second installments grossed together worldwide. And it is also the second highest grossing movie of MCU Phase 2 after Avengers: Age of Ultron. But, to be honest, the movie couldn't do justice to fan expectations.
The biggest disappointment in the movie was the presentation of Mandarin. Iron Man and Mandarin are like Batman and The Joker "“ one of the greatest rivalries in the comic book universe. So, expectation of the fans was sky-scraping. But Shane Black and his team simply messed it up while trying to add some twist to the plot. But that's nothing new with MCU movies as most of their villains have disappointed us.
Even though Guy Pearce has a reputation for his strong acting skills, his portrayal of Aldrich Killian wasn't very convincing. Introduction of Ty Simpkins' Harley Keener wasn't an interesting addition either. But don't forget that this kid has a three-picture deal with Marvel and we've heard rumors that he would take up the mantle of Iron Man in future.
It was fun to watch Gwyneth Paltrow's Pepper Potts kicking some ass in Iron Man suit "“ but it wasn't GREAT FUN. But it is always a great fun to watch Robert Downey Jr. play Tony Stark. If you aren't familiar with the comic books, Iron Man 3 is in no way the worst movie of MCU Phase 2 -the next one is most likely the one.
