MCU Film Rankings: Best to Worst

As Captain America: Brave New World hits theaters, it's the perfect moment to revisit the Marvel Cinematic Universe's impressive catalog of 35 films. Which MCU installment holds the top spot in your heart? Do you cherish those groundbreaking origin stories like Iron Man? Or perhaps you favor the electrifying ensemble epics that concluded the Infinity saga? Share your rankings using our interactive tier list tool below.

The selection is vast—but remember we're focusing exclusively on Kevin Feige's MCU productions, so Sony's Marvel films (and most X-Men entries) won't appear here (Wolverine being the exception). Below you'll find my personal ranking, purely based on which movies I've enjoyed most throughout the years:

Unfortunately, Brave New World didn't deliver the comeback I'd hoped for—burdened by what might be the MCU's most awkward screenplay to date, it landed firmly in D-tier. As for my other controversial placements, I anticipate some raised eyebrows at 2024's Deadpool & Wolverine occupying the bottom category. For my detailed critique, you can read my full analysis here. That said, I wouldn't call it the absolute worst; that dishonor still belongs to Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, easily the most D-tier-worthy entry yet.

At the pinnacle, five films stand out as truly exceptional. Both Captain America: Civil War and Winter Soldier are effortless S-tiers—Civil War for its emotional depth and Winter Soldier for its masterful spy thriller execution. Thor: Ragnarok earns its spot as one of this decade's finest comedies, while Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame provided an unparalleled conclusion to the Infinity saga's grand narrative.

Disagree with my rankings? Believe Spider-Man: No Way Home should top the Holland trilogy? Think Black Panther deserves S-tier status? Create your own tier list below and see how your S, A, B, C, and D rankings stack up against the IGN community's collective opinion.
