Iron Man 3

I'm a Robert Downey Jr. mark so I was going to like this either way. The story was certainly the weakest of the 3 IM films, but that's not to say it was terrible. The PTSD angle tied in actions from The Avengers nicely and really gave Stark some depth of character. The interactions with the kid were really good, too.

I also enjoyed seeing Potts getting to be a bit of a bad-***. Thought that was a ice touch and shows how the Potts-Stark relationship continues to evolve.

I was disappointed in the "twist" in regards to the villain, but again, nothing that made me say, oh my, that's horrible.

Anyone else surprised this wasn't a Christmas release since there are a ton of referencs to the holiday in the film?

All in all, a good film and I'll get the blu-ray when it is released, but honestly, at this point I'm a bit burned out on all the Superhero films.
