    'I'm just a man in can' - Tony Stark

    After Iron Man 2 disappointed and The Avengers kicked it out of the park, what next for Robert Downey Jr and old shell head?

    Happily, Shane Black delivered in spades for the third solo outing of Tony Stark a.k.a Iron Man. The film has humour and action aplenty.

    -Surely this is the best comedy of all time?
    -It is and don't call me Shirley.

    What can I write about this movie that hasn't been written before? Not a lot I guess. I will just say that sitting this watching it with my girlfriend who had never seen it was a joy.

    The HD transfer looked good (even though it exposes some of the wire work that goes on throughout the movie) and it still has the power to…
