With the release of Captain America: Brave New World, it's an exciting time to reflect on the expansive Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), now boasting an impressive collection of 35 films. As fans, we all have our personal favorites. Are you drawn to the groundbreaking origin stories like Iron Man, or do the thrilling team-ups that concluded the Infinity Saga capture your heart? Share your thoughts using our interactive tier list tool below.
Remember, we're focusing solely on films from Kevin Feige's MCU, so no Sony Marvel movies this time (sorry, X-Men fans, except for Wolverine). Here's a glimpse at my personal tier list, which reflects the films I've most enjoyed over the years:
Unfortunately, Captain America: Brave New World didn't meet my expectations, landing in the D tier due to what might be the MCU's clumsiest script yet. As for the rest of the lower ranks, my placement of 2024's Deadpool & Wolverine in the bottom category may surprise some, but it simply didn't resonate with me. You can delve into my detailed reasoning here. While it's not the lowest point for the MCU, that dubious honor goes to Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, which easily earns its D-tier status.
On the other end of the spectrum, my top tier is reserved for five films that I consider truly exceptional. Both Captain America: Civil War and Winter Soldier earn S-tier rankings for their deep emotional impact and thrilling espionage elements, respectively. Thor: Ragnarok stands out as one of the most hilarious films of the last decade, while Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame brilliantly concluded the saga's most crucial chapter.
Do you disagree with my rankings? Perhaps you believe No Way Home is the pinnacle of the Tom Holland Spider-Man trilogy, or that Black Panther deserves an S-tier spot? Feel free to create your own MCU movie tier list below and see how your S, A, B, C, and D tiers compare with the IGN community.
