I'm guessing that since War Machine/Iron Patriot lacked a proper JARVIS system, the excuse we're supposed to take is that Extremis can allow someone to override AIs. Or maybe Killian injected it with a virus that submitted the suit to his control once he had it cracked. In fact, AIM had been responsible for upgrading the suit, right? They probably had already cracked the genetic lock beforehand and kept it a secret.

Oh thats right The suit was already using AIM software. You could see it on one of the startup sequences for War Machine. I had forgotten.
Beyond using AIM software to run the War Machine/Iron Patriot suit also was linked into their networks, as shown when Tony used Rhodey's password and username to get in and get the info from 'em. As such it makes sense to me that without Rhodey in the suit that any AIM personnel could use it. Having finally seen the movie today my only issue with it was that the fight scenes were not quite as good as the Genndy Tartakovsky done ones in Iron Man 2, but that's a personal taste thing as objectively I think that they were still good.

I thought Iron Man 3 was pretty bland and unappealing. 46 or so suits and none of them have guns? Or missiles? Or lasers/blades/darts/kitchen sinks!? Nope, gotta go hand-to-hand, and fall apart at the first sign of a hit, cause goodness knows that heat isn't something you'd want to protect your armor from.
Then there's the eye-rolling predictable evil military industrial complex bad-guy. Frankly the only good part of the whole movie was Stark's interaction with the kid.

Not a smart idea for him to take those hits directly, that is why he bailed out so many times. Even if the suit could take it (prototype suits didn't seem like they could), a human body can't. In retrospect, Tony really should have felt the heat just by being near him... unless it happened that the guy increases his output right before the strikes.
Plus, you forgot about another awesome part: Downtown Abbey.
