However Kingsley was so great in the whole reveal and from that point on, that I don't see how anyone can't really enjoy it.

But that's where it gets kinda meta doesn't it? The trailers and interviews painted this ultimate villain who's the ultimate terrorists in universe. We all fell for Killians scheme, his smoke and mirrors. It works on so many levels and Shane Black IS the kind of director who'd foresee that.

I'm kinda sorry to see Pepper's RESCUE persona was exaggerated (oh ye internet), but it seems she leaves the movie with new powers. That may lead to something in the greater scheme of things.

And hell yeah to the Unibeam kill.
