Avengers: Endgame
Avengers: Endgame remains one of the most ambitious and well-executed cinematic event films ever that still tells a satisfying story while giving us entertaining action and character moments, earning the film a place alongside the greats.
Iron Man
With the inspired casting of Robert Downey Jr. in the lead role and Jon Favreau’s creative liberties with the comic books, Iron Man became an instant classic, and it continues to shape the public’s perception of superhero films and blockbusters, cementing a place of greatness in cinematic history.
Spider-Man: No Way Home
What could easily have been a cheap attempt at using nostalgia to build an audience ends up being the powerful denouement of Tom Holland’s Peter Parker’s hero’s journey, accentuated by strong performances, fun moments, and gripping action that make Spider-Man: No Way Home one of the Best Films of All Time.
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever
Led by its primary performances, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever provides a unique take on the superhero film, allowing its audience to mourn even as they watch epic sequences of action and worldbuilding unfold, making its place among the greats fairly unsurprising.
X-Men: Days of Future Past
Days of Future Past is an at-times overlooked great in the world of superhero films, getting so much right in its execution of its ambitious premise and providing a satisfactory conclusion (that was immediately undone by Apocalypse, Logan, and Dark Phoenix) to the story of the X-Men.
Captain America: Civil War
Some phenomenal superhero action pieces that highlight basically every hero in the film, a fast-paced story about conflict in the Avengers, and a villain that wins and ties everything together – these are the pieces that make Captain America: Civil War one of the Greatest Films of All Time.
The Avengers
Great team-up action that consistently hits key story points and a high-caliber villain in Loki are what keep The Avengers worth watching and make it one of the Greatest Films of All Time.
Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings
Authenticity in its subject matter, great casting, and solid kung-fu action sequences are what make Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings not only one of the best MCU films but also one of the Greatest Films of All Time.
Avengers: Infinity War
Avengers: Infinity War is one of the most ambitious films in the history of film, managing to bring together ten years of worldbuilding into one satisfying film with a seriously iconic villain.
Wonder Woman
Despite some minor plot holes and a less-than-satisfying final fight, Wonder Woman delivers a solid, funny, engaging superhero origin film with some of the best action sequences from the last ten years.
Captain America: The Winter Soldier
Captain America: The Winter Soldier stands apart as its own unique offering in the pantheon of Great Films; equal parts superhero film and spy thriller, it reflects some of the greatest aspects of both genres.
