Movie Haiku:While forced to agree with Jan about the predictable, lazy screenplay, Rich still found IRON MAN fun to watch. Roper & Phillips may find some "spark" in the Downey/Paltrow dialogue, but we both found it by the numbers. Downey has fun as a superhero; Bridges has fun as a villain; Jan was totally bored.
