“There are heroes… there are superheroes… and then there’s Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr). With great power comes great responsibility — everyone knows that — everyone, that is, but Stark. Edgy, conflicted, sarcastic, and misunderstood, Iron Man’s well-intentioned heroics might get the job done and save countless lives, but always seem to leave jaw-dropping damage in their wake.”

Maybe it doesn’t match quite as well as a Surfergirl plug-in, but it does an okay job.  That’s the first half of a synopsis of Hancock with Iron Man stuff thrown in instead.  Let’s see… rogueish, handsome superhero reforms himself in order to better help the world.  Hm.  Oh, wait, Stark possesses a modicum of intelligence and a level of humor somewhere above “toilet.”

Well, scratch that comparison, then.
