Synopsis
Marvel Studios’ Iron Man 3 pits brash-but-brilliant industrialist Tony Stark/Iron Man against an enemy whose reach knows no bounds. When Stark finds his personal world destroyed at his enemy's hands, he embarks on a harrowing quest to find those responsible. This journey, at every turn, will test his mettle. 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? Credits

Scott Fitzgerald classic bowed in with $51 million, the third largest opening of the year to date.

Iron Man 3 Ruined The Mandarin, And Real Fans Should Be PissedBlack successfully turned the tables on his audience, baiting them with the promise of a widely-anticipated character, then switching to a foe who had existed in the shadows until it was time for the film to screen.

To 3D Or Not To 3D: Buy The Right Iron Man 3 TicketThe first time we met Iron Man, back in 2008, he wasn't in 3D, and he didn't even glom on to the gimmick in his second movie. So why does he have to be in 3D now? A whole lot has changed in blockbuster movies in the last five years, including the fact that it's pretty much inevitable you'll have to don glasses to catch up with the summer's biggest movies (mine were novelty glasses in Iron Man's signature red and gold, at least).
