Hear we're allowed to tweet what we thought of Iron Man 3. I bloody loved it. Surprising, action-packed and with bags of energy. Great fun. — Matt Risley (@spliggle) April 17, 2013

Iron Man 3 is AWESOME. Completely erases the memory of it's dull, muddled predecessor. — Alex Mullane (@Mullane45) April 17, 2013

Shane Black proved an inspired choice to direct. Marvel Phase 2 is off to a hell of a start. #ironman3 — Alex Mullane (@Mullane45) April 17, 2013

Iron Man 3 is 10000000000 times better than you could ever imagine and Shane Black and Drew Pearce are my new heroes — Charlie The Unicorn (@princesscharlie) April 17, 2013

SERIOUSLY THOUGH THIS FILM MAKES THE AVENGERS (MY FAVOURITE) LOOK LIKE A JOKE OMG — Charlie The Unicorn (@princesscharlie) April 17, 2013

IM3 has such a nimble, densely packed script you'll need at least two viewings to catch it all. Climactic set piece is baggy, but still. — Emma Dibdin (@emmdib) April 17, 2013

Iron Man 3 is the business — Henry Fitzherbert (@FitzOnFlicks) April 17, 2013

Great character development, lots of humour and charm in #IronMan3 — Henry Fitzherbert (@FitzOnFlicks) April 17, 2013

Not quite sure what the villain was trying to achieve though #IronMan3 — Henry Fitzherbert (@FitzOnFlicks) April 17, 2013

Iron Man 3 is v entertaining. Trajectory is pleasing unpredictable, it's smart, funny, substantial and action-packed. GREAT villain — Jamie Graham (@totalfilm_jamie) April 17, 2013

Iron Man 3. Best of the series.Fantastic start to finish. Plus Sir Ben Kingsley absolutely nails It. Worth the 2 years of toil Mr. Black. — Screen One (@ScreenOne) April 17, 2013

Iron Man 3 was great. Funny, clever and full of real surprises. Well done Shane Black. — Sarah Rappaport (@SarahRapp) April 17, 2013

So disappointed by Iron Man 3. Without being the guy who moans a Marvel film isn't "serious enough", it felt like an MTV Movie Awards skit. — Niall Doherty (@NiallMDoherty) April 17, 2013

Iron Man 3 is seriously good fun. Equal measures humour, heart, action & brain. Just a straight up, good time movie that totally delivers. — Simon Thompson (@ShowbizSimon) April 17, 2013

I thought The Avengers set the bar impossibly high. Nope. Iron Man 3 is thrilling, moving, funny and hugely satisfying, with AWESOME action. — Becky Reed (@DIYFilms) April 17, 2013

Another Iron Man 3 triumph - GwynethPaltrow is actually alive in this one. A fun performance. #ironman3 — Adam Lowes (@adlow76) April 17, 2013

So, just saw #ironman3 - reviews etc. embargoed but, Sir Ben Kingsley, I was NOT expecting that AT ALL. Film definitely wins on points. — Nancy Durrant (@NancyDurrant) April 17, 2013

I'm still a bit in shock about how good Iron Man 3 is. I can't remember the last time I was caught off-guard at the cinema. — Sam Ashurst (@samashurst) April 17, 2013

IRON MAN 3 is amazing. Quite possibly the best solo Marvel Studios movie yet. There's a twist which might upset some, but I loved it! — Josh Wilding (@Josh_Wilding) April 17, 2013
