Honestly the Iron Man suits just sort of feel like cameos in their own movie, there to please the audience rather than be part of the narrative.

I wouldn't have minded that if the character stuff in this movie was good, but the movie is far too stupid to create a compelling character drama. Stark having panic attacks doesn't count as a character study, it counts a novelty and a cheap one at that.

I guess at least The Wolverine wont be getting the title of 'closest thing to a boring superhero film' title this year.

To the film's credit, it did portray post-traumatic stress disorder with incredible accuracy.
