Synopsis
As pressure mounts from the government, rivals, and his own health, Tony Stark faces new threats to his legacy as Iron Man.
Review
An overstuffed sequel that juggles world-building and story with mixed results. While the second half picks up steam, the film often assumes the role of franchise launchpad instead of its own thing.
This movie is part of our complete MCU retrospective.
