The introduction of Krypton’s number-one child Superman to audiences in Action Comics No. 1 in June 1938 was a huge event that marked the beginning of the Great American Superhero Obsession. Understandably, the movies also tried to capitalize on this trend. Consequently, a few years afterward, matinee mainstays included serials such as The Adventures of Captain Marvel (1941), Batman (1943), as well as Captain America (1944); even the Man of Steel could have his 15-part tale in 1948.
We’ve created a list of the kids’ superhero movies of all time after navigating numerous cinematic universes and multiple multiverses, participating in infinity wars and endgames.
By the moment superheroes returned to the big screen in the late 1970s and early 1980s, they had already established themselves as instantly recognizable symbols. You didn’t need to be a comic book audience to comprehend what a red disguise with white eyes and a web design represented: your friendly neighborhood superhero, The Spider-Man.
Yet when the first X-Men film and Sam Raimi’s initial Spider-Man movie debuted in theatres within a few years, the scene was prepared for what is now known as the Golden Age for Superhero Movies to begin in the initial decade of the twenty-first century.
These movies exemplify the category and have contributed to the excitement of seeing comic-book characters burst onto the television into a multiplex lingua franca. They range from the campy to the grimdark, the long hours in Gotham City towards the sunrises of Wakanda.
List of Best Kids Superhero Films:
30. Mystery Men (1999)

- Director: Kinka Usher
- Writer: Neil Cuthbert, Bob Burden
- Cast: Ben Stiller, Janeane Garofalo, William H. Macy
- IMDb Ratings: 6.1
- Rotten Tomatoes: 61%
- Streaming Platform: VUDU, Prime Video, Redbox., Vudu Movie & TV Store, or Apple TV
- Genre: Action/ Fantasy
About Mystery Men:
The sole feature of this kids’ superhero film directed by commercial director Kinka Usher, Mystery Men, is a work that is, in every way, ahead of its time. When the movie debuted in 1999, comic book films weren’t a separate business, and the 2000s superhero craze hadn’t yet begun.
Mystery Men nonetheless succeeds in demonstrating how ridiculous the superhero genre is compared to today’s superhero movies, even though it is the same type of junk as the period-specific films with an intent to lampoon.
29. The LEGO Batman Movie (2017)

- Director: Chris McKay
- Writer: Seth Grahame-Smith, Chris McKenna, Erik Sommers
- Cast: Will Arnett, Michael Cera, Rosario Dawson
- IMDb Ratings: 7.3
- Rotten Tomatoes: 90%
- Streaming Platform: Netflix, Prime Video
- Genre: Action/Adventure
About The LEGO Batman Movie:
The Lego Batman Movie is a delightful exception to the rule that most Batman films pretend that events never occurred. This kids’ superhero film acknowledges the character’s essentially ridiculous essence — an unhappy man-child who knows how to dress like a mouse — and many ridiculous aspects of his previous iterations.
However, it also generates a unique kind of sadness in the shape of Batman’s suppressed desire for a family, played by Will Arnett. Rosario Dawson with Zach Galifianakis delivers outstanding performances in the vocal cast, and the Lego-inspired visual jokes never grow old. Anyone who disapproves of this movie ought to reflect on whether they genuinely support Batman.
28. Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie (2017)

- Director: David Soren
- Writer: Nicholas Stoller, Dav Pilkey, David Soren
- Cast: Kevin Hart, Thomas Middleditch, Ed Helms
- IMDb Ratings: 6.2
- Rotten Tomatoes: 87%
- Streaming Platform: VUDU, Prime Video, Redbox., Vudu Movie & TV Store, or Apple TV
- Genre: Family/Comedy
About Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie:
The presumptuously named Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie, which is based on the initial four Captain Underpants children’s novels by Dav Pilkey, makes fun of superheroes, action films, and the very theatrical medium in which it finds itself.
The wide range of animation techniques used in Captain Underpants (along with a brilliant sock puppet segment) divides the movie into inventive levels, preventing it from seeming like the one-joke miracle it frequently borders on.
27. Chronicle (2012)

- Director: Josh Trank
- Writer: Josh Trank, Max Landis
- Cast: Dane DeHaan, Alex Russell, Michael B. Jordan
- IMDb Ratings: 7.0
- Rotten Tomatoes: 80%
- Streaming Platform: Disney+, Prime Video
- Genre: Sci-fi/Thriller
About Chronicle:
Chronicle by Josh Trank with Max Landis flips that critique on its head by posing the hypothetical question of what might transpire if emotionally challenged adolescent guys were allowed to realize their power delusions truly.
It answers bluntly: They would level the entire planet. In addition to its skillful use of found-footage terror cliches, the opening two-thirds of the film are terrifying because they show young male dominance at its most savage and sociopathic.
Although Chronicle’s last act devolves into a cliched, spectacular good-against-evil climax, up until that juncture, it is a frightful and unique film.
26. Unbreakable (2000)

- Director: M. Night Shyamalan
- Writer: M. Night Shyamalan
- Cast: Bruce Willis, Samuel L. Jackson, Robin Wright
- IMDb Ratings: 7.3
- Rotten Tomatoes: 70%
- Streaming Platform: Disney+, Vudu, and Prime Video.
- Genre: Thriller/Mystery
About Unbreakable:
As fantastic as kids’ superhero comics seem, and to the extent that they continue to offer good material for films, more directors need to follow M. Night Shyamalan’s lead and free the superhero from the bonds of licensing restrictions and fan-pandering.
Before the caped-crusader explosion, Shyamalan created a movie that is undeniably about a superhero while also being quiet, sorrowful, sensitive, and cerebral. Samuel L. Jackson developed his greatest persuasive superhero movie results as Elijah Price, a reflective and obsessive guy whose aspirations lead to tragedy and whose origin story is closely connected to the mid-century memories of Philadelphia’s African American middle class.
25. Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008)

- Director: Guillermo del Toro
- Writer: Guillermo del Toro, Mike Mignola
- Cast: Ron Perlman, Selma Blair, Doug Jones
- IMDb Ratings: 7
- Rotten Tomatoes: 86%
- Streaming Platform: Netflix and Vudu
- Genre: Fantasy/Action
About Hellboy II: The Golden Army:
The following factors explain why the second Hellboy is superior to the first: Guillermo del Toro analyzed the previous Hellboy and improved upon it by doing much of what was successful and doing less of what wasn’t. He got rid of Hellboy’s classic confidence dilemma and the viewer surrogate John Myers from the last film, which made the audience yawn.
It’s quite disappointing that del Toro has put off making a film about the different magician personalities from DC Comics, considering, that if it were even half as exciting and terrifying as Hellboy II, it would be the most avant-garde DC cinematic adaptation to date.
24. X-Men (2000)

- Director: Bryan Singer
- Writer: Tom DeSanto, Bryan Singer, David Hayter
- Cast: Patrick Stewart, Hugh Jackman, Ian McKellen
- IMDb Ratings: 7.3
- Rotten Tomatoes: 82%
- Streaming Platform: Disney+, Vudu, and Prime Video.
- Genre: Action/Adventure
About X-Men:
In hindsight, it’s amazing how well the X-Men ensemble was done.
Certainly, some duds are on the roster (Tyler Mane and Ray Park should be considered millennium oddities with the Y2K virus). However, the chemistry of this ensemble of misfits still makes for a fun moment.
Although it wasn’t a very good film, it was reliable and thrilling enough to save the kids superhero genre from irrelevance.
23. Wonder Woman (2017)

- Director: Patty Jenkins
- Writer: Allan Heinberg, Zack Snyder, Jason Fuchs
- Cast: Gal Gadot, Chris Pine, Robin Wright
- IMDb Ratings: 7.4
- Rotten Tomatoes: 90%
- Streaming Platform: Netflix, Prime Video, Vudu
- Genre: Action/Adventure
About Wonder Woman:
As Wonder Woman makes her theatrical premiere, moviegoers may see the cinematic tradition being created. As the movie’s title character, Gal Gadot gives a magnificent performance laced with a seriousness that is all too uncommon in today’s quick-witted, snarky superhero-film culture.
Chris Pine is just delightful in the role of the manly damsel in need. -Even though she barely appears in a few scenes, Robin Wright excels as Wonder Woman’s tutor. The film is humorous when it needs to be, which is a nice departure from its contemporaries in the DC Extended Universe.
22. Spider-Man (2002)

- Director: Sam Raimi
- Writer: Stan Lee, Steve Ditko, David Koepp
- Cast: Tobey Maguire, Kirsten Dunst, Willem Dafoe
- IMDb Ratings: 7.4
- Rotten Tomatoes: 90%
- Streaming Platform: Netflix, Prime Video, Vudu
- Genre: Action/Adventure
About Spider-Man:
The casting of Tobey Maguire portraying Spider-Man was outrageously, deliciously bizarre. For starters, he lacks a strong sense of humor, which is a key component of the Spidey typology. That typology also calls for sympathetic humanity, yet in Spider-Man, Maguire’s body language and line delivery convey the impression of an alien inside a human costume.
But like the other of Sam Raimi’s Spider launches, his portrayal is as endearing as it is weird. Willem Dafoe appears unmotivated by everyone excluding himself (and he is intrigued by himself), James Franco vacillates between heartthrob and holier-than-thou performer, and Kirsten Dunst believes she is in a different teen drama.
Tobey Maguire addresses the audience directly with his previously stated eerie inelegance in this film. Oh, and for whatever reason, Macy Gray is also present. The result is a jumbled mess that boldly established the standalone superhero origin tales model.
21. Thor: Ragnarok (2017)

- Director: Taika Waititi
- Writer: Eric Pearson, Craig Kyle, Christopher L. Yost
- Cast: Chris Hemsworth, Tom Hiddleston, Cate Blanchett
- IMDb Ratings: 7.9
- Rotten Tomatoes: 94%
- Streaming Platform: Disney+, Prime Video
- Genre: Action/Sci-fi.
About Thor: Ragnarok:
The nearest non-Thor siblings to the GotG movies in tone and spirit are: The prologue/set piece for Ragnarok, directed by Taika Waititi, features the title character Thor bossing around to a rocking song.
Waititi’s trademark deadpan communicative levity occasionally falls flat, producing “distracting uncomfortable” rather than “funny uncomfortable,” but that is a necessary by-product of extended comic riffs, and more pertinently, the crowd is not offered much time to reflect before the next joke (or stunning action shot) will be upon them. Appreciating how wonderfully Chris Hemsworth plays the character of the God of Thunder is nothing new at this point.
20. X2: X-Men United (2003)

- Director: Bryan Singer
- Writer: Zak Penn, David Hayter, Bryan Singer
- Cast: Patrick Stewart, Hugh Jackman, Ian McKellen
- IMDb Ratings: 7.4
- Rotten Tomatoes: 84%
- Streaming Platform: Disney+, Prime Video, Vudu.
- Genre: Action/Adventure
About X2: X-Men United:
The number of superhero movies that could be better than Bryan Singer’s 2003 follow-up to his 2000 blockbuster X-Men can be counted on a single hand, and there are still fingers left behind.
X2 was a significant step toward establishing comic books as a legitimate source of thrill and suspense on the big screen, starting with its utterly breathtaking opening sequence that amply illustrated the strongest arguments for why people should dread mutants.
19. Iron Man (2008)

- Director: Jon Favreau
- Writer: Mark Fergus, Hawk Ostby, Art Marcum
- Cast: Robert Downey Jr., Gwyneth Paltrow, Terrence Howard
- IMDb Ratings: 7.9
- Rotten Tomatoes: 94%
- Streaming Platform: Netflix, Prime Video
- Genre: Action/Adventure
About Iron Man:
The movie that launched the Marvel Cinematic Universe devotes a disturbing amount of its time joyfully shooting out unknown brown people and has a perplexing ethical framework (Tony Stark loses interest in making weapons, so he… creates a violent battle-suit?). But the aspects it does right altered the contemporary film. It’s uncommon for one film to establish the tone for a whole genre, but Jon Favreau and Robert Downey Jr. were able to create the Marvel Movie pattern and tone in this instance.
You have the cute protagonist, the funny dialogue, the vivid colors, the astute pop-culture allusions, the Playstation-ready final CGI fight, and all of this. The post-credits scene, however, was the most significant since it fulfilled Ultimate Marvel’s concept and included Samuel L. Jackson portraying Nick Fury. The huge planet we currently live on was promised.
18. Punisher: War Zone (2008)
- Director: Lexi Alexander
- Writer: Nick Santora, Art Marcum, Matt Holloway
- Cast: Ray Stevenson, Dominic West, Julie Benz
- IMDb Ratings: 5.9
- Rotten Tomatoes: 29%
- Streaming Platform: Netflix and Prime Videos
- Genre: Action/Drama
About Punisher: War Zone:
You probably haven’t watched the movie, so I advise you to check it out and enjoy its crazy B-movie shine. It has nothing in common with the 2004 Punisher movie, resembles no other superhero film, and manages to be both exciting and purposefully funny.
It appears to follow the titular deadly enforcer as he engages in combat with the facial structure disfigured mobster Jigsaw (a scene-chewing Dominic West) and Jigsaw’s demented brother (played by the potentially insane Doug Hutchison).
Unfortunately, The Dark Knight and Iron Man, two other films from 2008, overshadow this crisp, innovative film. These latter two later bound superhero films in styles that mostly omit the exhilarating energy of Alexander’s forgotten masterpiece.
17. Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017)

- Director: Jon Watts
- Writer: Jonathan Goldstein, John Francis Daley, Jon Watts
- Cast: Tom Holland, Michael Keaton, Robert Downey Jr.
- IMDb Ratings: 7.4
- Rotten Tomatoes: 92%
- Streaming Platforms: Netflix, Prime Videos, and Hulu
- Genre: Action/Adventure
About Spider-Man: Homecoming:
The odd thing about the Spider-Man filmography is how frequently the comedies have been rejected. Although there is humor in every Spider movie, they tend to rely more on emotion than wit, highlighting valiant effort and tragic failure over all else.
In this movie, you discover that you are just as enthused by Peter Parker’s eclectic group of Academic Decathlon partners as you are about his fights with the Vulture as his alter ego. Talking of which, Michael Keaton is fantastic as that specific evil guy.
Even when he and Spider-Man meet, we genuinely fear the safety of every uncomfortable teen Peter because we have grown to love him so much. Additionally, Hannibal Buress and Donald Glover have excellent cameo appearances in Homecoming, so quit your grumbling and enjoy this entertaining short movie.
16. Logan (2017)

- Director: James Mangold
- Writer: James Mangold, Scott Frank, Michael Green
- Cast: Hugh Jackman, Patrick Stewart, Dafne Keen
- IMDb Ratings: 8.1
- Rotten Tomatoes: 94%
- Streaming Platform: Disney+, Prime Video
- Genre: Action/Sci-fi
About Logan:
The film is one of the few kids’ superhero movies that seems really mature.
We observe as the guy once called Wolverine chooses to feel vulnerable rather than succumb to the mesmerizing pull of cynicism as he travels through a cursed world.
Furthermore, the movie contains moments of almost deliriously brilliant humor that don’t originate from cheesy pop-culture allusions or pointless chatter but rather from realistic stories about parents and kids.
15. Iron Man 3 (2013)

- Director: Shane Black
- Writer: Drew Pearce, Shane Black, Stan Lee
- Cast: Robert Downey Jr., Guy Pearce, Gwyneth Paltrow
- IMDb Ratings: 7.1
- Rotten Tomatoes: 79%
- Streaming Platform: Prime Videos, Disney+ and Vudu
- Genre: Action/ Adventure
About Iron Man 3:
Iron Man 3 is one of the greatest kids’ superhero movies that succeeds even though its eponymous hero spends two-thirds of the movie without his armor. The movie has the perfect amount of narrative, laughs (mainly from banter), and combat. Most of it was spectacular (fairly comprehensible).
Iron Man 3 is a better-made movie than its forerunner; however, Robert Downey Jr. is Tony Stark, and it ultimately succeeds for the exact purpose the first two movies did. Despite 50 years of Tony Stark’s character development within comic books, Downey Jr. has essentially supplanted the character, although most actors, no matter how talented the presentation, play second fiddle to the personality they depict.
The character has never been more interesting than the armor he wore, partly because of this, but primarily because Downey Jr.’s Tony Stark is so much more fun to watch than Stark Classic.
It’s the main factor that makes superhero movies with protagonists who spend most of the movie outside their armor enjoyable rather than merely tolerable. Because of this, the film’s handling of the neutering of an arch-villain—while still a problematic precedent for the Marvel cinematic world as a whole—works well.
14. Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014)

- Director: Anthony Russo, Joe Russo
- Writer: Christopher Markus, Stephen McFeely, Joe Simon
- Cast: Chris Evans, Samuel L. Jackson, Scarlett Johansson
- IMDb Ratings: 7.8
- Rotten Tomatoes: 90%
- Streaming Platform: Prime Videos, Disney+ and Vudu
- Genre: Action/ Adventure
About Captain America: The Winter Soldier:
Chris Evans’ portrayal of Steve Rogers in the second Captain America film is undoubtedly the most charming of all the major roles from the superhero surge. Evans/Rogers holds our attention with his earnestness and longing, even while stomping a writhing mass of criminals in an elevator or conversing with an intelligent Commodore 64.
This film is about the harrowing journey a demobilized soldier must take as he searches for tenuous solace in the company of other soldiers, even if it isn’t didactic or overtly political. Even though Bucky gets fewer than twenty words in the whole film, the friendship involving Steve with his brainwashed friend generated a vast amount of (often romantic) fanfiction: The Winter Soldier, in contrast to other superhero films, contains subtext.
13. Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

- Director: Anthony Russo, Joe Russo
- Writer: Christopher Markus, Stephen McFeely, Stan Lee
- Cast: Robert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo
- IMDb Ratings: 8.4
- Rotten Tomatoes: 85%
- Streaming Platform: Prime Videos and Disney+
- Genre: Action/Sci-fi
About Avengers: Infinity War:
There are many interpersonal exchanges and dramatic beats in Avengers: Infinity War that the preceding movies have prepared for the viewer (well, maybe not 2008’s The Incredible Hulk). There seem to be a lot of fast-paced battle scenes in this movie. Because of this, as characters interact for the first occasion or are reintroduced, authors Christopher Markus with Stephen McFeely have lots of freedom to riff and experiment.
Even though some of the conversations are predictable (though still enjoyable), such as the instantaneous ego conflict between Downey Jr.’s Iron Man as well as Cumberbatch’s Dr. Strange, our closeness with these personalities adds reverberations to almost every scene as well as every line, as the remnants and shockwaves of emotional arcs established in the last decade’s worth of films bolster even the most basic of plot points.
12. Avengers: Endgame (2019)

- Director: Anthony Russo, Joe Russo
- Writer: Christopher Markus, Stephen McFeely, Stan Lee
- Cast: Robert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo
- IMDb Ratings: 8.4
- Rotten Tomatoes: 94%
- Streaming Platform: Prime Videos and Disney+
- Genre: Action/Sci-fi
About Avengers: Endgame:
It is as nice as it could be for what it really is. The type of tale depicted in Avengers: Endgame could have been declared unfilmable and unmarketable in earlier times before the MCU existed. It’s a three-hour film featuring a tonne of superhero personalities from the Marvel Comics B and C-lists, many of whom are required to act out storylines on screen.
The tale is done with razor-sharp accuracy, despite the lack of a strong thematic underpinning beyond the generalizations about having confidence in oneself and remembering the importance of friendship (we must also tip our hats to editors Jeffrey Ford and Matthew Schmidt).
Although the plot features illogical jumps in logic, it doesn’t matter because every emotional moment seems earned and natural. The idea that perhaps the MCU has been a part of so many moments in my recent life made me feel strange and perhaps shamelessly touched whenever the movie alluded to a prior one. The entire project resembles a heartfelt love note from Big Brother.
11. Superman Returns (2006)

- Director: Bryan Singer
- Writer: Michael Dougherty, Dan Harris
- Cast: Brandon Routh, Kate Bosworth, Kevin Spacey
- IMDb Ratings: 6.1
- Rotten Tomatoes: 74%
- Streaming Platforms: Netflix, Prime Videos, and Apple TV
- Genre: Action/ Adventure
About Superman Returns:
Watching the choreography of the Man of Tomorrow rescuing people in a demigod’s position while gently balancing a whole airplane on the baseball field gives one goosebump. The film takes its time telling its tale and is aware that the most dramatic moments frequently occur at the tiniest scales (similar to Lois sending essential fax covertly as her son plays the piano with a hitman).
One of the best bad-guy performances in kids’ superhero movie history. It’s a masterpiece of a presentation. But it goes without saying that, considering what we’ve learned about Spacey, even this idealistic and inspiring genre may be poisoned.
10. Batman Begins (2005)

- Director: Christopher Nolan
- Writer: Bob Kane, David S. Goyer, Christopher Nolan
- Cast: Christian Bale, Michael Caine, Ken Watanabe
- IMDb Ratings: 8.2
- Rotten Tomatoes: 84%
- Streaming Platforms: Netflix, Prime Videos, and Vudu
- Genre: Action/ Fantasy
About Batman Begins:
If this film had flopped, no one would have been shocked. When Keaton gave up the cowl and cape in 1992, there had been no generally acclaimed Batman film, and the franchise had ended in disgrace over ten years before Christopher Nolan attempted to revive the legend.
However, Batman Begins’ opening shot, including its two-note theme song and scarcely discernible logo, makes it clear that Nolan based his film on a straightforward concept: let’s make a kid’s superhero film that is first and foremost a film, then a superhero narrative.
9. The Incredibles (2004)

- Director: Brad Bird
- Writer: Brad Bird
- Cast: Craig T. Nelson, Samuel L. Jackson, Holly Hunter
- IMDb Ratings: 8.0
- Rotten Tomatoes: 97%
- Streaming Platform: Disney+
- Genre: Family/ Adventure
About The Incredibles:
It shouldn’t be conceivable that the finest superhero movie of all time is an animated movie that Marvel, DC didn’t produce, or any other company involved in the comic book industry, given how far the genre has come in just the previous 10 years.
However, here we are. The Incredibles continues to be the gold standard—a fine combination of heart, humor, and superheroes—for twelve years since Bob (Craig T. Nelson), Violet (Sarah Vowell), Helen (Holly Hunter), and Dash (Spencer Fox) coped with some fairly significant Buddy (Jason Lee) problems. The Household Parr’s oh-so-familiar family situation is just as important to the finished product as Syndrome’s Bond-worthy supervillain hideaway and cunning scheme.
The Pixar movie is infused with humor and delight. In retrospect, The Incredibles merits an additional honor since Brad Bird’s film demonstrates how one may incorporate dark themes in a kids’ superhero film without eliminating all the other elements contributing to the genre’s appeal and wonder.
8. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 (2017)

- Director: James Gunn
- Writer: James Gunn, Dan Abnett, Andy Lanning
- Cast: Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista
- IMDb Ratings: 7.6
- Rotten Tomatoes: 85%
- Streaming Platform: Disney+
- Genre: Action/ Sci-fi
About Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2:
GotG Vol. 2 follows the original movie’s script, but since the audience is already familiar with the whole group, Gunn bypasses the preliminaries and gets directly to the comedy.
In the sequel, the elements from the original movie—daddy troubles, sibling rivalry, friendship conflicts, and the issue of what constitutes a family—are even more overt. However, they give the events more punch than if they were all jokes and pratfalls. This is not to imply that they are delicately or extensively explored—this is space opera.
The audience won’t likely feel that much has changed by the conclusion of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. Still, it’s obvious that Gunn and his team understood precisely what made the original movie so delightful and what they required to do to make this specific sequel worthwhile.
7. X-Men: Days Of Future Past (2014)

- Director: Bryan Singer
- Writer: Simon Kinberg, Jane Goldman, Matthew Vaughn
- Cast: Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Hugh Jackman
- IMDb Ratings: 7.9
- Rotten Tomatoes: NA
- Streaming Platform: Disney+, Apple Tv
- Genre: Action/ Adventure
About X-Men: Days Of Future Past:
The grandiose blockbuster from Bryan Singer clears the air of the dubious dramatic (not to mention fan-upsetting) decisions made in the subpar films that came after X2: X-Men United. It also serves as convincing proof that Singer’s DNA could include its own unique mutant ability.
Gladly, much like previous X-Men films directed by Singer, the filmmaker seems to instantly understand when to back away from the thrilling action set pieces and force in on his ridiculously over-qualified actors as they champion the movie’s core tenets of second chances and selecting walk the more tough path of righteousness rather than self-righteousness.
Days of Future Past runs for 131 mins and is nearly at capacity with its massive ensemble navigating the complexities of its time travel paradox-filled plot. Singer weaves the needle with such seeming ease that the flaws are hardly noticeable. His ability is uncanny, even if it isn’t as impressive as telekinesis and plasma-laser eyes.
6. Black Panther (2018)

- Director: Ryan Coogler
- Writer: Ryan Coogler, Joe Robert Cole, Stan Lee
- Cast: Chadwick Boseman, Michael B. Jordan, Lupita Nyong’o
- IMDb Ratings: 7.3
- Rotten Tomatoes: 96%
- Streaming Platform: Disney+, Prime Video
- Genre: Action/ Adventure
About Black Panther:
The majority of kids superhero films are essentially liberal. Not always politically, although a significant number of them are given their fondness for preserving the status quo by violence. However, in 2018, 20 years into the current superhero craze, writer-director Ryan Coogler, an Afrofuturist with fiery eyes, comes to us with the message of the Black Panther.
It excels simply from a superhero perspective. Chadwick Boseman’s titular character is an immediate icon thanks to his cautiously royal charm, thoughtful speaking style, cryptic grin, gorgeous figure, and tremendously passionate eyes. Erik Killmonger, played by Michael B. Jordan is one of the finest antagonists ever to haunt the superhero genre in just about any medium.
He exudes a frightening swagger and a cunning master strategy. Additionally, it’s hysterically amusing. (Wright stands out in this respect, and an early passage in which she references an online meme causes one who understands the allusion to cry.)
5. Captain America: Civil War (2016)

- Director: Anthony Russo, Joe Russo
- Writer: Christopher Markus, Stephen McFeely, Joe Simon
- Cast: Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson
- IMDb Ratings: 7.9
- Rotten Tomatoes: 94%
- Streaming Platform: Prime Video, Apple Tv
- Genre: Action/ Adventure
About Captain America: Civil War
Zemo divides the squad in two while not engaging in physical combat with any of the heroes. The compelling motivations of Steve Rogers and Tony Stark’s different Avengers divisions make the fight even more compelling.
Notwithstanding the universes of Black Panther and Spider-Man being introduced in a movie that is already overflowing with heroes, their personalities never seem forced into the story or the environment. Not that there isn’t a tonne of visual candy, mind you. When we remember our love of superheroes as children, the airport conflict is the real-life embodiment of that image (and still).
4. Spider-Man 2 (2004)

- Director: Sam Raimi
- Writer: Stan Lee, Steve Ditko, Alfred Gough
- Cast: Tobey Maguire, Kirsten Dunst, Alfred Molina
- IMDb Ratings: 7.4
- Rotten Tomatoes: 93%
- Streaming Platform: Netflix, Prime Video
- Genre: Action/ Sci-fi
About Spider-Man 2:
The Green Goblin with Doctor Octopus was originally slated to appear in the first Spider-Man, but filmmaker Sam Raimi was concerned that it would be too much for one film. However, he reserved Doc Oct for this gem of a sequel. The underground train fight (and its aftermath) is still the most moving set piece in comic book movies to date, as well as the villain gives one of the finest villain portrayals in any of them.
This film was widely considered the finest superhero kids film ever made until the release of the Nolan Batman series and the Marvel Cinematic Universe. For a good reason: its leads are endearing, the action is daring, and the humor is grin-inducing.
3. Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018)

- Director: Bob Persichetti, Peter Ramsey, Rodney Rothman
- Writer: Phil Lord, Rodney Rothman
- Cast: Shameik Moore, Jake Johnson, Hailee Steinfeld
- IMDb Ratings: 8.4
- Rotten Tomatoes: 97%
- Streaming Platform: Netflix. Prime Video, Disney+
- Genre: Action/ Sci-fi
About Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse
The idea of taking a jump of faith is a constant theme in the movie, and it comes out that the series needed to make this leap by replacing the stereotypical white kid Peter Parker with the Afro-Latino Miles Morales as the lead character.
With this superhero kids’ movie, we desire passionately for Miles to achieve his footing as he strives to be a hero since he is the latest change to the Spider-canon of comic books and seems fresh and Zeitgeist-y in a manner that Peter hasn’t in ages.
Fortunately, he gets the help of a variety of other Spider-people from different realities; this is a comic book convention that has never been attempted on the big screen, but it is done here with finesse and exhilarating grace. The film’s impressive command of graphical whizbang may be the biggest thrill. The plot, actors, and gags are all top-notch.
2. The Avengers (2012)

- Director: Joss Whedon
- Writer: Joss Whedon, Zak Penn
- Cast: Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson
- IMDb Ratings: 8.0
- Rotten Tomatoes: 91%
- Streaming Platform: Jio Cinema, Disney+ Hotstar, Google Play, iTunes, YouTube
- Genre: Action/ Sci-fi
About The Avengers:
Do you desire a fantastic superhero film? There is no denying that this is the perfect film for your kids to watch. This kids superhero film was even more exciting to see the Avengers fighting and not getting along when they finally came together. Everyone’s favorite villain, who we can’t help but like, is Tom Hiddleston.
In Joss Whedon’s vivid epic, sci-fi adventuring is enthusiastically embraced while being admired for its elbow-greased American know-how. The language is witty, the comedy is vibrant, the character rhythms are strong (“I’m always angry”), the pace is never sluggish, and you are left wishing you could spend additional time with the eponymous team.
1. The Dark Knight (2008)

- Director: Christopher Nolan
- Writer: Jonathan Nolan, Christopher Nolan, David S. Goyer
- Cast: Christian Bale, Heath Ledger, Aaron Eckhart
- IMDb Ratings: 9
- Rotten Tomatoes: 94%
- Streaming Platform: HBO Max, Prime Video, Apple Tv.
- Genre: Action/ Adventure
About The Dark Knight:
Was there a question? How did Christopher Nolan’s epic fail to receive even a nomination for Best Picture? Why are you so blind? Why the severity?
This kids superhero film demonstrated the artistic potential of comic book/superhero films. Batman has come a long way since he first appeared in Detective Comics artwork in 1939, and in this expertly painted image, he shows himself to be at his most fearsome.
The Dark Knight outperformed its outstanding precedent Batman Begins to become the benchmark to which all contemporary comic book movies are measured, according to Kevin Smith, who called it “The Godfather Part II of comic book movies.”
