| AVENGERS, The | 2012 | 100 | 1 | (full review) |
| Captain America: Civil War | 2016 | 100 | 1 | (full review) - Delivering a cinematic showdown for the ages full of superheroes of all stripes, the Russo brothers have put together an instant classic that joins the pantheon of outstanding comic book movies. |
| Captain America: The Winter Soldier | 2014 | 97 | 3 | (full review) |
| Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 | 2017 | 97 | 3 | (full review) - Chock full of Easter eggs from the Marvel Cinematic Universe and general pop culture lore, infused with a vibrancy that matches the groovy soundtrack, and assembled with a charismatic, offbeat cast, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is an unmistakably American movie. |
| Iron Man | 2008 | 93 | 5 | (full review) |
| Ant-Man | 2015 | 88 | 6 | (full review) - For his part as Scott Lang and one of the two titular characters, Paul Rudd follows in the footsteps of Robert Downey Jr.'s Iron Man and Chris Pratt's Star-Lord by finding his funny bone. He's the chill slacker who shrinks to become the hero he was born to be. |
| Doctor Strange | 2016 | 88 | 6 | (full review) - It's a really impressive feat for the Marvel Cinematic Universe to be able to reinvent itself year after year and again and again while maintaining consistent entertainment value and a cohesive mega franchise. Boldly dark, reliably funny, and visually inventive, director Scott Derrickson's Doctor Strange takes the MCU in yet another direction and delivers a healthy dose of that rarefied beauty known as movie magic. |
| Iron Man 3 | 2013 | 88 | 6 | (full review) |
| Avengers: Age of Ultron | 2015 | 84 | 9 | (full review) - The film's greatest asset is not the action, the comedy, or even its glut of new characters. It's the villainy. It's Ultron. James Spader's persona reminds me quite a bit of Hugo Weaving's performances as Agent Smith in The Matrix trilogy with an extra shot of menace. Popping up everywhere with money quotes on the inevitability of his peacekeeping mission, Spader oozes with malice in every move he makes and every step he takes. |
| Iron Man 2 | 2010 | 80 | 10 | (full review) |
| Incredible Hulk, The (Edward Norton) | 2008 | 75 | 11 | (full review) |
| Captain America: The First Avenger | 2011 | 70 | 12 | (full review) |
| Thor: The Dark World | 2013 | 61 | 13 | (full review) |
