Ranking Movies Based on Marvel Comics

by razorath92 | created - 07 May 2012 | updated - 03 Aug 2013 | Public

You will see a lot of 1s and a lot of 10s on this list. Mainly because Marvel movies are somewhat inconsistent in terms of quality, it's usually bad, but there are also around 13 good ones, of those 6 are tens! So just don't be shocked, I felt the scores were all deserved.

Oh also, I only rated the ones I've seen. Some I haven't and don't plan to.

However I do plan on seeing the following and will make additions to this list as whenever a new Marvel film comes out.

Iron Man 3 (2013) Thor 2 (2013) Captain America 2 (2014) The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (2014)
