Cannes Film Festival 2013

Holiday Trailer Grades: 'Iron Man 2,' 'Alice in Wonderland' and more

Plus: 'The Runaways,' 'Clash of the Titans,' 'Hot Tub Time Machine,' 'Shrek 4,' 'Robin Hood'

"Iron Man 2"

"Iron Man 2"

Lowdown: Everything seems hunky dory for Robert Downey, Jr.'s Tony Stark until he meets his nastiest adversary yet in Mickey Rourke's Whiplash.  

Grade:
A-.  It's not as sweet as the Comic-Con preview, but damn when Whiplash starts throwing those electric tendrils around you know the sequel won't disappoint.  And the shot of War Machine at the end? Icing on the cake.

    No tease to the Disney-short in Fantasia that inspired The Sorcerer's Apprentice? Really? What about the dancing bromsticks late in the trailer then?
