OK, so I saw it today. Bought it with my casino winnings (hit for 6 bills on a video slot). Meh. Was money I didn't have so . . . was no loss.
Better than Ultimate Avengers 2, I will say that.
They messed with his creation quite a bit. Here's a basic rundown as my mind recalls:
Stark is working with China to raise an ancient city from the Mandarin Dynasty. James Rhodes is the sight supervisor. Rebels have been sabotaging the sight since it started. but not killing anyone. Then, using the Liquid Steel tech, they raise the city and the rebels attack, killing EVERYONE but Rhodes, who they capture as bait for Stark to come to China to undo what he has done.
Subplot of Tony's interest in the company being taken over by the board and his Father does nothing about it.
Tony tells Pepper to take care of 3 particualr off shore accounts and then flys to China. In comes Tony in tanks, They are ambushed by the rebels and Tony is injured, a piece of shrapnel hitting his heart. The rebels use a mystic to save him and then Rhodes builds a heart & lung machine to keep Tony alive.
Oh yeah. It's kinda silly. Did I mention that yet?
They trim down the device until it looks like one of those green hologram medallions, but glued to his chest.
So Tony has brought this city up, he's alll f'd upon life support, and some Elementals are loose looking for the Mandarin's rings, Tony and Rhodes build the grey Iron Man Armor in like a week. Then they escape and learn that SHIELD is after them for selling arms to terrorists in China. They sneak into Stark Tower and Tony takes Rhodey to a secret room full of Iron Man armor. Yeah. He's been building it for years which is why he could build a suit in a week. They show pretty much all the armors, including Ultimate. Week plot device, I say.
So Tony goes all over the world in his Armor, in undersea armor, in gold & red armor, back to the armor he made as a prisoner and learns that he's part of a prophecy blah blah blah the girl is Mandarin's vessell, she gets the rings, brings Mandarin back from the grave blah blah blah Tony saves the day, buys his comanpy back the end.
It kinda sucked, actually. Sorry I just got sick of writing about a bad movie. The animation was OK, the CG in it was obvious and awful. Extras - alternate opening sequence should be watched first. The Doctor Strange preview is cool. Mordo and the other students Pre-Strange chasing down some demon creature and pre-accident Strange can see the fight. Mordo is bad ***. This looks good, to be honest.
C- For Iron Man ( It does have some cool parts but felt like the Avengers movies minus the rest of the cast!). B- for Dr. Strange Preview.
