Justin Hammer Vs Mandarin : What Are The Main Personal Weapons Of Iron Man?

During one of the writing sessions, pearce suggested that the mandarin was a fake, and black agreed by going with making him an actor, which in turn pearce detailed as an overacting british stage performer. black explained: "who would be fool enough to declare that he is an international terrorist? if you're smart, whatever regime you're part of, you'd put a puppet committee and remain your house."

Sadly, the film that surrounds this wonderful piece of cinema is drowned out by a colossal red herring, throw-away characters, and wasted opportunities. special mention should also go to downey jr, because his portrayal of stark in this film is his best yet.one of the biggest gripes about the iron man trilogy to date has been its rather bland villains, especially when compared to the likes of thor or cap, whose respective villains (loki and red skull) were excellent. iron man 3 decided to resolve this problem by doing absolutely nothing to resolve it, by making a hamming-it-up guy pearce as the villain we know next to nothing about, and then by pretending- through trailers, marketing, and the film's plot itself- that the main villain was sir ben kingsley as the mandarin.

Choosing a character to be the villain of the film was difficult, as favreau felt iron man's arch-nemesis the mandarin would not feel realistic, especially after mark millar gave his opinion on the script. the mandarin had originally been envisioned as a rival to tony stark with a building of his own right next to stark industries, with the mandarin eventually drilling a hole underneath stark industries to steal all of stark's technology for himself; associate producer jeremy latchman described such story as "crazy terrible" and "underwhelming". favreau felt only in a sequel, with an altered tone, would the fantasy of the mandarin's rings be appropriate.

Another flash-bang-wallop of a marvel feature in the now continuing saga of tony stark a.k.a. iron man, this is equally as exhilarating as its predecessor. the suit is still the star for me, my main objection being that old metal-head's screen-time is reduced greatly by the increasing focus on the troubled tony stark, who besides a worsening poisoned-blood situation (caused by his palladium-based artificial heart) which threatens to kill him, suffers rock-star excess, over-drinking, the approbation of colleagues and lovers, the chiding of s.h.i.e.l.d recruiting officer nick fury, disputes with a confrontational congressman, continuing rivalry with smooth operating megalomaniac justin hammer, oh and daddy didn't love him either - all of that before mickey rourke's whiplash enters the scene.so, quite a lot going on then, which with so much character development, gives the likes of downey jr., gwyneth paltrow and sam rockwell (the latter, the real show-stealer here) the chance to act and interact, although don cheadle seems very ill at ease as pressed-into-action hero-or-villain war machine and rourke gets to mumble and mutter a lot in a heavy russian accent.

Of course, iron man does encounter new enemies. those would come in the form of an avenging russian named ivan vanco, who has constructed a miniaturized arc reactor of his own including whip-like attachments harnessing the electrical energy. and also the garrulous & obnoxious justin hammer, a ceo corporate rival who desperately tries to hammer out a super iron suit of his own to no avail.

This was a good edition to the iron man series but very disappointing, the best thing about the movie was its humor and action, with another excellent performance from robert downey jr. and well guy pearce is brilliant in anything he does. heres the point i want to make, as a major iron man fan i think what they did with the character of the mandarin was literally a jail-able offence (spoiler alert)...marvel built up the character of the mandarin so much with the media and the trailers and of course it was just a ploy so we would be shocked that the mandarin was just a phony a distraction to the real mandarin aldrich killian( who in the comics shoots himself in the head and is just a crazy scientist), when i went into the movie i was expecting a ground breaking villain like the joker and bane in the dk trilogy..but no ironman 3 did not stay true to the comic books and ruined ironmans greatest foe, why?? mandarin is to tony stark what joker is to bruce wayne, what the green goblin is to peter parker, you ruined a great villain, and that ruined the movie for me as a life long iron man fan..

Although his technology—glowing, electrically charged whips—isn't anything new, he is always fun to watch. likewise, sam rockwell is great as usual as a villain, the wisecracking justin hammer.the plot simply continues on from the last film, after people have found out the true identity of iron man. while it's nothing too complex, the progression of the story is logical--it would surely bring some enemies out of the woodwork if they knew who he was.
