Like the Outriders in Thanos army, they never stop, each being replaced by the next. Here are the Marvel Cinematic Universe movies ranked from worst to best… So far.

22. The Incredible Hulk (Both Movies)

Marvel Studios
Hulk technically is not part of the Cinematic Universe but it wasn’t much worse than The Incredible Hulk so, I will bundle these together because they both suck, just in different ways.

21. Iron Man 3

Marvel Studios
We have Tony Stark dragging his suit for most of the movie even though he has a few thousand he can call on back at home. But because he is suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress, he doesn’t. This movie also introduces the Mandarin who turns out to be a total letdown.

20. Thor: The Dark World

Marvel Studios
The darkest and least entertaining of the Thor series. This one gives us CGI battle scenes, Anthony Hopkins, and of course that Thor hair. But not much else.

19. Avengers: Age of Ultron

Marvel Studios

This film gives us Ultron an evil robot bent on world domination. On its own, it is an okay movie, but compared to the rest it gets a low rating.

18. Thor

Marvel Studios

The first outing with Chris Hemsworth as Thor and we don’t get much hammer time but we get a decent amount of action.

17. Captain America: Civil War

Marvel Studios

We need to create conflict! How do we do that? We make all The Avengers get into a fight with one another in this movie that is filler as we wait for Infinity War.

16. Iron Man 2

Now that the world knows Tony Stark is Iron Man, he has to deal with the side effects of the arc reactor in his chest, Mickey Rourke as the baddie and a BFF who looks different from the first movie but no one seems to notice.

15. Ant-Man and The Wasp

Marvel Studios

Not as good as the first as they get a little carried away with the antics of shrinking and growing things, however, it is still a fun entry into the franchise worth watching.

14. Captain America: The Winter Soldier

Marvel Studios

Hydra has infiltrated SHIELD. But don’t worry, Captain America is here to punch things, save the day, and chase after his not-a-boyfriend Bucky.

13. Spider-Man: Homecoming

Marvel Studios

Now in the MCU Tom Holland takes over the role of Spiderman to lighten up the character and make him worth watching again.

12. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2

Marvel Studios

With the addition of Kurt Russell, this movie takes the comedy that worked in the first movie and adds a lot of CGI to try to one-up itself.



6. Captain America: The First Avenger

Marvel Studios

A weakling turned into super stud Captain America. He fights the Nazis and Hydra, yet still doesn’t get the girl.

5. Ant-Man

Marvel Studios

This little movie that everyone thought wouldn’t impress, did impress as we find a man who can shrink to the size of an ant and still be cool.

4. Captain Marvel

Marvel Studios

It took them long enough to give us a Marvel film starring a woman. But on the plus side, they picked the perfect person to play the role Carol Danvers in Brie Larson. Danvers teams up with Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) to do what superheroes do, kick ass and have flashbacks.

3. The Avengers

Marvel Studios

Avengers Unite! In this film, they argue a lot but still unite to fight Loki and do their best to keep him from getting his hands on the Tesseract.

2. Iron Man

Marvel Studios

The movie that kicked off the Cinematic Universe and the modern era of non-stop superhero films. But don’t let that hold you against it. Robert Downy Jr. is the perfect choice as billionaire genius Tony Stark.

1. Guardians of the Galaxy

Marvel Studios

The perfect amount of humor, action, one-liners, and story as Chris Pratt puts on the helmet and Walkman as Star-Lord. Who wouldn’t love to dance around the universe in a cool spaceship, listen to classic rock music, and hook up with hot alien chicks? Not the author of this list! And that is why this movie gets the number one spot.
