There are some individuals in this world who when you come across them make you glad to be alive. Not for the passion of love, but for the sheer scale of their ambition to create something so unique that it can never be topped, something so artistic, so elegant, so completely and utterly insane that it screams with joy when you see it visualised.

There is nothing like a good apocalyptic film to send people in their droves worrying about the next big thing that will decimate humanity to the point of extinction. Rising sea levels and the air stream suddenly going into meltdown, asteroids that will leave big holes in the round and Morgan Freeman as the last decent man on the planet, a rampaging monster destroying half of Japan (take your pick) or perhaps the daddy of them, nuclear Armageddon in which Sheffield gets destroyed in perhaps the finest example, Threads.

Visually the third instalment of Iron Man sums up everything you would expect from the people who have changed the way in which to showcase big budget superhero films. Wonderfully filmed, the senses get rocked and moved beyond experience before and they set out a challenge to D.C. to come up with the goods that would finally see a clean and fair fight between the two superpowers of international comic books. Visually, the film is as near perfect as you can wish for and is perhaps only bettered by the mass ensemble of last year’s The Avengers.
