With his back against the wall, Stark is left to survive by his own devices, relying on his ingenuity and instincts to protect those closest to him. As he fights his way back, Stark discovers the answer to the question that has secretly haunted him: does the man make the suit or does the suit make the man?

Likes : This film is not bad, out of the 3 films done i have to admit this film is the best by far, it showed more depth to character of tony stark reprised by robert drowny jr, which show under all that male ego he has he still has a heart & thing do get to him.i love the way they made the back story to this film,which show that he created he's own demon which came back to bite him hard as he past caught up with him, but there was something going on in his mind which was something from the avengers when he enter the worm hole.From what i saw it looked like he feared death something effected him from that dark world where he sent the nuke to the nightmare's were effecting him but it also showed a human side to tony stark which gave the storyline more concept.Gwyneth Paltrow returns as Pepper Potts she was awesome in this film,she even got to wear the suit as well which was surprising but cool but you really could feel that tony loved her after a curtain scene to which i can mention because its would be a spoiler but you could really feel the pain in Tony's face which turned to anger.Ive got to say some of the iron man suit that come flying in were just awesome,special the Egor suit dam that thing was like the hulk just craved its way through the containers,there was one that was cool as well because it split in to piece & took out 5 guys a once then came together again.Along with the special effect & the balance between the sarcastic humour & serious moments of this film it was a well balanced & funny film in place's with some good banter.Ben Kingsley was just funny as hell in this film as well & Don Cheadle scene in the War Machine suit with some Iraq people was just classically funny.Guy Pearce was pretty good as well playing this sadistic evil person that wanted to start war the fight scene with him tony was brilliant brutal & fast.The scene with he litle boy Harley played by Ty Simpkins was really touching moment because the boy help tony out a lot in re-discovering himself.PS there is a 4 min ending after the credits with bruce banner played Mark Ruffalo which was funny.this is one film not to be miss as its the best iron man film yet with some intense moment's.

Dislikes : The only thing that was dispointing was you only get to see all the iron man suits for the last 20mins of the film, which i think could of been seen through out the film but its was ok to see them at the end.

Overall : Brilliant back story,good special effect, a more emotional iron man then the other two,but not to be miss just for the iron man suits alone.

Rating: 4.5 out of 5 for entertainment / 8.9 out of 10 for action/different iron man suit's,concept & special effect.
