Captain America: Brave New World has arrived, prompting another look at the Marvel Cinematic Universe's impressive 35-film collection. But which MCU film reigns supreme in your heart? Do you cherish the early origin stories like Iron Man, or prefer the thrilling team-ups that culminated in the Infinity Saga? Share your preferences using the tier list tool below.
With so many films to choose from, it's worth noting this list encompasses only Kevin Feige's MCU productions, excluding Sony's Marvel ventures (sorry, X-Men, except maybe Wolverine). My personal tier list, reflecting my viewing enjoyment over the years, is presented here:
Sadly, Brave New World falls short of my expectations, burdened by what I consider the MCU's most cumbersome script to date, relegating it to the D tier. My placement of 2024's Deadpool & Wolverine in the bottom tier may surprise some, but it simply didn't resonate with me. (You can find a detailed explanation here.) However, it's not the MCU's absolute worst; that dubious honor currently belongs to Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, an easy D-tier entry.
Conversely, my top tier features five exceptional films. Captain America: Civil War and Winter Soldier easily earn S-tier status, effectively exploring the MCU's emotional core and paranoid espionage themes, respectively. Thor: Ragnarok stands out as one of the funniest comedies of the past decade, and Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame spectacularly concluded the franchise's most crucial chapter.
Disagree? Believe No Way Home is the best of the Tom Holland Spider-Man trilogy? Think Black Panther deserves S-tier? Create your own MCU movie tier list below, comparing your rankings (S, A, B, C, and D tiers) with the IGN community.
