Marvel One-Shot: All Hail the King

All Hail the King is the follow up and spin-off of Iron Man 3 with exceptional performance by Ben Kingsley.

This short escalated so many unimaginable and shockingly wonderful ways that nobody see it coming.

I hope MCU will bring back Sam Rockwell's Justin Hammer in future entries.

Trevor Slattery(Kingsley, loving every second of pretending to be a bad actor) is in prison after the events of Iron Man 3. Some people there are huge fans of his, and they try to protect him from the ones who... maybe just don't... *get* his work, you know? Maybe it's too sophisticated for them? He agrees to do a series of interviews, and finds that the man conducting them is a professional who takes great care in his work. Thing is, he's not actually a journalist at all.

This is featured on the Blu-ray of Thor: The Dark World (2013). It was added to Disney Plus not long before Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings was released, since The Mandarin is a major part of that. This short is essentially a course correction by the studio, after so many people were unhappy with the treatment of that character in his first appearance. It's filmed and edited well. It's funny and stops short of being self indulgent.

I recommend this to everyone who's going to watch the aforementioned Asian-led MCU film. 8/10.

As the final official Marvel One-Shot, All Hail the King captures the quintessential idea of these shorts. Picking up after the actions of Iron Man 3, ex-Mandarin actor Trevor Slattery (Ben Kingsley) finds himself locked in prison for his terrorist acts. Now a notorious criminal, Slattery develops a following and enjoys his time galavanting with the other inmates. Though he feels safe within this prison, a seemingly ordinary interview puts that to the test. Quick and humorous, but also meaningful, this is how the One-Shots should have felt. Kingsley is consistently enjoyable in the role of Slattery and his nuance elevates what could have been a nuisance of a character. All Hail the King stands as the MCU's best One-Shot by telling a fast, fun, and necessary story, which expands on the ever-growing mythos.

You can never praise Ben Kingsley enough. But he has reversed the stupidity of this role as the director of Iron Man 3 envisioned, and put out a magnificent and hilarious character. And thank God, this One Shot seems to be taking The Mandarin in the proper direction. Fantastic.

Drew Pearce is surprisingly good . I was thinking what will they do in this but when I watched it, it was quite nice and surprisingly good . It covers all the parts of Iron Man Trilogy . Now it all makes sense . And it's better than all other Marvel one-shot .

In starting a documentary film maker is shown as he is making a documentary on Trevor. Some humors scenes are really good . And in the end you can't imagine what comes and you'll get a little shock .

At the end there is a cliff hanger , which i can't really imagine that in which movie they will reveal it. Ending credits also contain some scenes as always in Marvel style . It follows the theme of Dr. No.

That's it folks , go and watch it !!
