Iron Man 3 was coming to my country a week early and everybody was crazy about it. As I wrote this post, Iron Man 3 still dominated the screens in Bandung. The spoiler about this movie appeared in my Twitter timeline every day ever since. It was annoying because I have to hold myself to not read or even ask for more. All I can do is went to cinema and watch it :p

Iron Man 3 takes place after what happened in New York in The Avengers. I found difficult to recall all the exact cases because I have not watched The Avengers hahahaha. I just know that every hero come together and fight Thor’s brother, Loki. That is it. I have no idea why Iron Man/Stark was so scared about it. However, I still enjoy the movie. After whatever-that-happened-in-New-York, now Stark has to face the new enemies. He does not know who the big brain about it. Though the problem was so complicated, Stark knows how to make a joke of everything he’s doing. He makes everything so simple yet unpredictable and fun.

Beside the cool action (do you ever thought about Iron Men?) and funny jokes, I’m interested to the last one in the synopsis above which might be the whole idea of the movie and also be the reason of what Stark doing in the end, “does the man make the suit or does the suit make the man?”. Stark created an Iron Man suit but not only he who can wear and use it. But when another man tried to make the same suit, it doesn’t perfectly work. So, does Stark still a powerful man even though he is not wearing an Iron Man suit? You can get the answer by watching this movie :)

Iron Man 3 was funny and awesome. It breaks my thought about ‘superheroes always won in the end of their movie’. Iron Man/Stark won the fight, but it's different way and meaning and I believe he’ll be back soon. Let see what would happen in The Avengers 2 (yeaaah, after I watched the first movie, of course :p). Recommended :D
