Review of Iron Man 3 (2013) by John W — 26 Sep 2014
This is a movie with a lot going for it, but one really big thing that it hurts it severely as a fan of the source material. And that is their treatment of the character of The Mandarin.
Imagine this if you will. You are watching "THE DARK KNIGHT", and about 2/3 of the way through you see Batman break into what he thinks is the Joker's lair. But when he gets in there he comes across The Joker outside of make-up dressed like a bum, discovering that he as in fact an actor hired to be the patsy for Eric Roberts' mobster character Sal Maroni. And then during the final confrontation Maroni puts on a purple suit out of nowhere and proclaims "You're looking for The Joker...I AM THE JOKER!".
