"Iron Man 3": The surprise is not satisfactory

Rosemary 2022-03-16 09:01:01

"Iron Man 3" is a well-deserved Hollywood special effects giant, and the overall performance is tepid. The film adds a lot of artificial intelligence (such as Stark can remotely control the battle armor) and biotechnology elements, which adds a touch of high-end magic to the whole film. The several contests between Iron Man and the biochemical man in the film are indeed full of new ideas. Again, like the previous two, it is just full of endless metal battles between robots.

The special effects of this film are commendable, and they have inherited the high standards of Marvel superhero movies. The action and blasting scenes are majestic and fascinating. Tony Stark’s mansion was destroyed and sank to the bottom of the sea, one after another steel armor formed a team to fight the enemy, Iron Man rescued 13 people in the air and other visual spectacles, which made the audience excited, and they were addicted to it. It is even more so with the 3D technology. wonderful.

The biggest shortcoming of the film is that the characterization is not detailed enough, many sections are unreasonable, and there is even a big discrepancy with the original comics. The first is that the villain "Man of Manchu" has become a tasteless, and Ben Kingsley, an honorable Oscar actor, played such a role as a joke, which is the biggest failure of the whole film. In the original work, the horror leader with 10 magic rings on his fingers is Iron Man's lifelong enemy, and can even use powerful magic to confront the latter head-on. I don't know if the Mandarin Chinese can show their true strength in the new sequel of "Iron Man" in the future. Secondly, Stark got a heart attack after the New York war in the "Avengers", and he has lingering fears about this fierce battle with aliens. He often has nightmares and frequently shows his fragility, and his reaction is physiologically in the film. The performance was short of breath this time, and the performance was blunt and pretentious, but for the audience it was just a passing moment and couldn't empathize. The most outrageous thing is that "Iron Man Girlfriend" Little Pepper opens the plug-in mode in the final battle at the end of the film, which is unconvincing.

"Iron Man 3", a new generation of MK42 armor that is full of gimmicks, has nothing new and mediocre power, but it has become a creative product of Bojun Yixiao, adding a lot of jokes to the film. And this is contrary to the normal state of "Iron Man", "Iron Man 2", and "Avengers". In the film, Stark himself went deep into the tiger's den with his "body", often wandering outside the armor, making the whole movie no longer so "Iron Man", which is somewhat disappointing. At the end of the film, the steel team is overwhelmingly overwhelmed so that each one lacks individuality and becomes a hurried passerby.

The whole film has too much humorous burdens and intemperance, even in a few critical moments, it still does not forget to be funny, which weakens the tension and the audience can't concentrate, and it is too entertaining and superfluous. And how the Chinese elements that Chinese audiences desire are grafted into this Hollywood blockbuster, it is the guest appearances of Wang Xueqi and Fan Bingbing in the film that take less than 5 minutes and the fleeting commercials of a certain brand, and there are bursts of laughter in the theater. Voice. And the disappearing easter eggs at the end of the film also made the audience angrily home.
