By now the string of superhero movies is REALLY getting stale. It was OK to see the X-Men, Spider-Man, the Hulk and Iron Man once each. Each one has his/her own superpower and has to use it in his/her own way. But it gets boring when each movie has two or three sequels. Seriously, how many bad guys are you going to defeat? I can think of stories that haven't gotten filmed, but Hollywood is stuck on superhero sequels, tween pop, and remakes of horror flicks and foreign films*. Therefore, "Iron Man 3" just doesn't seem original. It especially comes across as a letdown when you consider that Robert Downey Jr. has starred in "Chaplin" and "Good Night and Good Luck". I don't recommend this movie.

*I can proudly say that I've seen "Solaris", "Open Your Eyes", "The Dinner Game" and "Death at a Funeral", but not their American remakes.
