Watched and loved it. The movie left me with lot of thoughts, but one thing I liked in particular was how Tony was superpower-less through most of the movie. He struggled to win as an ordinary human, and he did, thanks to who he is; and not so much to his suit. Or not entirely, suits did come in handy. But, it reminded me of those people who say that Nat, and Clint in particular aren't superheroes, or aren't "worthy" to be Avengers because they don't have those superpowers. At the end of IM3 Tony had his arc reactor removed, threw it away - threw away the thing that made him different and special, and as a squishy human being with no superpowers he says "I'm the Iron Man", you can't take that away from me.

So, it's not the supoerpowers that make a hero, movie stated that clearly and I just loved that. Take that, fandom.
