While Guardians of the Galaxy, Spider-Man , and Captain America are consistently great superhero trilogies within the MCU , Iron Man isn't viewed in the same light. That's mostly due to Iron Man 3 , which a lot of people have mixed feelings on, which is putting it lightly. In many cases, some fans outright dislike the movie.
Iron Man 3 was the most successful entry in the trilogy commercially, grossing more than $1 billion thanks to the huge hit that was The Avengers . Fans were looking forward to what was next for Tony Stark but many left disappointed by some choices the film made.
That said, I think there's a strong case to be made that Iron Man 3 isn't only a great film but it's actually the best movie in the trilogy, even surpassing Robert Downey Jr.'s rockstar
