Ranking: Every MCU Final Battle From Worst To Best
7. Iron Man Vs. Iron Monger (Iron Man)
Obadiah Stane gets into the Iron Monger suit and Iron Man tackles him into the street just in time to save Pepper from getting turned into Swiss cheese. It's go-time.
It's a pretty slow-paced fight on the whole, as one between giant robots probably should be, but the effects have held up incredibly well and it's a lot of fun seeing them smash each other around.
The two end up fighting in the sky (until that pesky icing problem saves Tony Stark's hide), Stane taunts him back on the ground, and then Pepper overloads the giant Arc Reactor, resulting in Stane and the Monger suit getting totally barbecued.
Rating: It's fairly basic by current MCU standards, but a fun introduction to this sort of combat. Jon Favreau's direction is on-point and basically defined the house style that all subsequent movies would follow both in terms of action sequences and, well, everything else. 6/10
