If you haven’t seen the film here is a little synopsis of the story of this last Iron Man film.

With his back against the wall, Stark is left to survive by his own devices, relying on his ingenuity and instincts to protect those closest to him.

My favorite part of the Blu-ray is always the bonus features and thankfully this Blu-ray is jam packed with them. We extremely enjoyed the interactive nature of this Blu-ray thanks to the JARVIS APP. It’s the second screen app for this Blu-ray.
In Marvelās āIron Manā series, JARVIS is Tony Starkās artificially intelligent computer system and serves a multitude of functions. JARVIS is programmed to speak with a male British accent and is voiced in Marvelās āIron Manā and āThe Avengersā series by actor Paul Bettany (āA Beautiful Mind,ā āThe Da Vinci Codeā).
