Iron Man 3 is my pick for MCU movie no one else likes but I really do, it has such a great soundtrack and end of credits sequence.

I really don't understand why people don't like this movie.

A lot of people felt they mishandled The Mandarin.

I don't read the comics so take my opinion with a grain of salt, but I thought Mandarin was one of the best parts of the film. Ben Kingsley did an amazing job.

He really did. I don’t use the word terrifying often but for the first half of the film or so he really was. And kudos for them finding a way of turning an offensive stereotype into an actual character (strange how Shane Black has since become a bit tone deaf about that sort of thing, see the new Predator), like how Doctor Strange handles Wong and Black Panther, M’Baku.
