MCU Movies Ranked: A Tier List

With the release of Captain America: Brave New World, it's an exciting time to delve back into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, now boasting an impressive collection of 35 films. The question on every fan's mind: Which MCU movie holds the top spot in your heart? Do you find yourself drawn to the early origin tales like Iron Man, or do the thrilling team-ups that concluded the Infinity Saga captivate you more? Share your thoughts using our interactive tier list tool below.

With a vast array of films to choose from, remember that this list focuses solely on Kevin Feige's MCU realm, leaving out Sony's Marvel ventures (apologies to the X-Men, except for Wolverine). Below, you'll find my personal tier list, crafted from my own viewing experiences over the years:

Unfortunately, Captain America: Brave New World didn't meet my expectations, landing in the D tier due to what I consider the MCU's most awkward script to date. As for the rest of the lower tier, my placement of Deadpool & Wolverine (2024) at the bottom might surprise some, but it simply didn't resonate with me. You can find my detailed thoughts on this here. However, I believe Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania represents the true low point, effortlessly earning its spot in the D tier.

On the other end of the spectrum, the top tier is reserved for the five films I consider exceptional. Captain America: Civil War and Winter Soldier are clear S-tier choices for me, both masterfully tapping into the emotional and espionage elements of the MCU. Thor: Ragnarok stands out as one of the decade's most hilarious comedies, while Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame delivered a stunning conclusion to the saga's most critical arc.

If you disagree with my rankings—perhaps you believe No Way Home is the pinnacle of the Tom Holland Spider-Man series or that Black Panther deserves an S-tier spot—why not create your own tier list? Rank all the MCU movies in the tool below and compare your S, A, B, C, and D tiers with the IGN community.
