    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      (at around 47 mins) The photo of Ivan being arrested that Tony Stark views in his research is an actual media photo of Mickey Rourke being arrested on a drugs charge when he was younger.
    • Goofs
      (at around 3 mins) A newspaper on a stand says "Stark takes reigns at 21", should be "reins". This is a running gag from Iron Man (2008).
    • Quotes

      [seeing Tony Stark, in partial Iron Man armor, sitting in a giant rooftop donut display]

      Nick Fury: Sir, I'm gonna have to ask you to exit the donut.

    • Crazy credits
      There is a scene after the closing credits: Agent Coulson arrives in New Mexico and locates a crater in which lies the war hammer Mjolnir. This is in fact an alternate version of the same scene from Thor (2011).
    • Alternate versions
      The mainland Chinese release obscures Vanko's nationality by reversing all Russian references on the soundtrack. For example, the word "Russia" comes out as something like "Ashar", and "Siberia" as "Ayuribias". The subtitles and the Mandarin-dubbed version simply delete these references altogether.

    Awesome suits
    This movie contains some throughly enjoyable moments that are on par with some of Downey Jnr's highlights as Tony Stark. The relationship between Pepper and Tony is taken further and built upon brilliantly in this movie. It contains some really cool and innovative action scenes which are taken for granted now. However the poor villain, a pattern in Iron Man Solo Outings, and the lack of direction meant this is easily the poorest Iron Man Performance. It's still an entertaining watch but you wouldn't be wrong if you skipped this movie when rewatching MCU Classics.
