The Amazing Spider-Man 

Beginning with Peter as a little child, his parents disappear without a trace, leaving him in the care of his uncle Ben played by Martin Sheen, and Aunt May, portrayed by Sally Field. Andrew Garfield portrays Peter Parker as he grows older. Peter is cooler; he skateboards and really interacts with his college crush Gwen Stacy, played by Emma Stone.

He comes into his father’s old bag one day, which encourages him to look out for Dr. Curt Connors, a scientist who was formerly his father’s colleague. By forcing Peter to learn lessons the hard way via his tries, failures, experiences, suffering, loss, and gains, this movie creates Peter starting up as a hero.

Even while Peter is wearing the costume, he often still acts like a regular person. He needs to have the ability to be a hero while still relying on his own decision and shared sense.

With a good dose of CG effects, of course, the film classifies the action to be as natural as possible. However, here, in contrast to Raimi’s movies, each action scene makes sense. All this adds up to a good watching experience.

  • Released in: 2012
  • IMDB Score: 6.9
  • Runtime: 2 Hours 16 Minutes
  • Cast: Andrew Garfield, Rhys Ifans, Emma Stone, Irrfan Khan, Martin Sheen, Denis Leary, Sally Field, and Others
  • Directed By: Marc Webb
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix

Justice League

Justice League introduced three new characters, Flash, Aquaman, and Cyborg. It didn’t take long, as per my expectation, and the time that was spent on them was well spent. Instead, then merely telling us about the characters, they displayed them to us.

Although we did not learn much about their past, we did get to know them as humans because of their backstories. With its rich/iconic characters and singular skits, it is a movie that will have you engaged from beginning to end. It is a fun movie; we all know what happened with DC movies.

Things have not been right for them. This movie checks many boxes and has the potential to keep you hinged; the presence of jokes, iconic characters, and the overall tone of the movie was balanced and satisfying. Ignore all the gloomy reviews on the internet and give it a try. 

  • Released in: 2017
  • IMDB Score: 6.1
  • Runtime: 2 Hour 01 Minutes
  • Cast: Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, Gal Gadot, Ezra Miller, Jason Momoa, Ray Fisher, Jeremy Irons,  Diane Lane, Connie Nielsen, J. K. Simmons, and Others

Green Lantern

The star, Ryan Reynolds, plays test pilot Hal Jordan. When he does an especially perilous maneuver that leads to the destruction of the jet, he is flying a test flight to assist in showcasing the benefits of a new fighter plane.

A dying Green Lantern then draws him into his presence and informs him that you have been selected for the ring. He is met with plenty of suspicions as he is taken to a secret site in a faraway area of the galaxy.

You can get your teeth into some fantastic action scenes. Definitely worth seeing is the last meeting with Parallax. It did not have the thrill and spices the audience expected, but it was still satisfying.

Overall, a fantastic summer action movie. Not for everyone, but if you just enjoy watching films and are ready to ignore flaws, this is the movie for you.

  • Released in: 2011
  • IMDB Score: 5.5
  • Runtime: 1 Hour 54 Minutes
  • Cast: Ryan Reynolds, Mark Strong, Blake Lively, Angela Bassett, Peter Sarsgaard, Tim Robbins, and Others
  • Directed By: Martin Campbell
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix

Wonder Woman 

This is a war film. Like the other Amazonians on the island of Themyscira, Diana is an Amazon. Diana learns about the war fuming in Europe and decides she wants to go fight when men come into contact with Themyscira.

Chris Pine connoisseurs in his scenes, which is impressive for a character in a story that seems to emphasize women’s liberation. He struggles to find the right words to beg Diana for her aid in winning the war, and it’s a dramatic scene.

Wonder Woman

‘Wonder Woman‘ isn’t a flawless movie; it occasionally stumbles onto political realities that aren’t always justified and little expositions that the director doesn’t seem specific in explaining. 

However, it has passion, humor, and wonder—a narrative spectacle that is distinct in a movie of this caliber, which makes it a good package. It is a fun movie with a good background to the character and a good visualization.

  • Released in: 2017
  • IMDB Score: 7.4
  • Runtime: 2 Hours 21 Minutes
  • Cast: Gal Gadot, Robin Wright, Chris Pine,  Danny Huston, Connie Nielsen, David Thewlis, and Others
  • Directed By: Patty Jenkins
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix

The Dark Knight Rises

The Dark Knight Rises is an exhibition of bright entertainers included in the movie. Of course, Christian Bale continues to be a fantastic Batman. As always, Michael Cain is fantastic; he delivers such an impactful performance that he actually should be given an Oscar respect.

In the shots, Tom Hardy’s portrait of Bane is threatening and foreboding. The Scene-stealer in the role of Cat Woman/Selina Kyle is Anne Hathaway; she is fully soaked. Everyone is so wonderful, and the dramatic situations involving the characters are so well planned, directed, and executed, and it is visible in each scene. 

The Dark Knight Rises

Overall, this movie is a beautiful reminder that premium script and directing can elevate any visual experience, including superhero movies, which are commonly considered nerd culture and entertainment. 

You’ll be completely happy with Christopher Nolan’s conception and grateful to everyone who contributed to the movie for providing such a nuanced version of its very well-known literary source.

  • Released in: 2012
  • IMDB Score: 7.4
  • Runtime: 2 Hours 21 Minutes
  • Cast: Christian Bale, Michael Caine, Tom Hardy, Anne Hathaway, Gary Oldman, Joseph Gordon Levitt, Marion Cotillard, Morgan Freeman, and Others
  • Directed By: Christopher Nolan
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix

The Avengers

It’s wonderful to watch Joss Whedon’s directorial and creative vision for the movie come to life. The writing is filled with humor and razor-sharp wit and is incredibly thorough.

The action scenes are both intense and expertly planned, and the amazing effects are really mind-blowing. Even if the storyline, action, and special effects are poppy, handling the wrong actor will ruin the entire production.

The Avengers

But thankfully for viewers and the performers, Whedon’s ensemble gets well and also feels utterly at ease berating and threatening each other all day and night.

The performers in “Marvel’s The Avengers” give wonderfully mesmerizing performances, and there are some affairs when we learn more about the backstories and emotions of their characters. If you have not seen this movie, give it a go, I am certain that you will enjoy it. 

  • Released in: 2012
  • IMDB Score: 7.4
  • Runtime: 2 Hours 23 Minutes
  • Cast: Robert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner, Mark Ruffalo, Tom Hiddleston, Samuel L. Jackson, and Others
  • Directed By: Joss Whedon
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix

Iron Man 3

The actor performances are invariably special, from the leads to the smallest little role, and the set pieces are suitably impressive. The writing strikes the perfect mix between the grandiose and the personal, and Sir Ben gives two bright skits for the price of one.

Additionally, Robert Downey Jr. is able to get Tony Stark’s depth in a more nuanced way. Although there isn’t a lot of action in this movie, the tale of Tony Stark’s character development is fantastic.

Iron Man 3

The musical soundtrack by Brian Tyler is incredibly great and greatly more menacing than the other Iron Man movies while simultaneously being more melodic.

The direct chorus is also an absolute joy to listen to. The visual effects are amazing. The humor is comical, and while many people complained, it really helps to lighten the mood and make the movie more pleasant to enjoy. 

  • Released in: 2013
  • IMDB Score: 7.1
  • Runtime: 2 Hours 11 Minutes
  • Cast:  Robert Downey Jr., Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle, Guy Pearce, Rebecca Hall, Stephanie Szostak, James Badge Dale, and Others
  • Directed By:  Shane Black
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix

Batman Ninja

A stunningly likable film that sees Batman and his friends transported to feudal Japan. Battling it out with Gotham’s worst baddies in an effort to return to the present. Big robots, cooperative monkeys, and Night Wing with the nicest hair ever.

The plot is interesting and fun to watch. Batman Ninja can be compared to a short narrative. The filmmakers had to pack a lot of material into a limited amount of time. No time for character development or history.

Batman Ninja

Amazing animation is used. All of your favorite characters have been brilliantly reimagined. The action sequences are ideal with a wild narrative.

According to reports, the Joker escaped Arkham, drank a concoction concocted by Scarecrow and Poison Ivy, and then Bane gave him a little smack. Joker was then given the freedom to write anything he wanted while his mind was still spinning. Overall a good watch for all the DC fans out there.

  • Released in: 2018
  • IMDB Score: 5.6
  • Runtime: 1 Hour 25 Minutes
  • Cast: Kōichi Yamadera, Wataru Takagi, Ai Kakuma, Rie Kugimiya, Hōchū Ōtsuka, and Others
  • Directed By:  Junpei Mizusaki
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix

Watchmen

Watchmen was a really intricate graphic novel with a number of problematic costumed characters, a compelling story, a good sense of design, and a setting that was deemed too real.

Every one of these elements is carried by the film to the best of its ability. Only a few minor things are changed, yet it stays precise to the book. The actors do a fantastic job portraying and acting out the unique characters. The events that are shown in the film are those of 1985.

Watchmen
Watchmen (Credits: Netflix)

The plot of Watchmen is centered on the prospect of nuclear war and planetary havoc, and while most of the characters attempt to act purely to the world, they struggle to understand its sense.

This is a fantastic movie that faithfully adapts the original graphic novel’s tone, the cast of characters, the sequence of events, and the plot to the big screen.

  • Released in: 2009
  • IMDB Score: 7.6
  • Runtime: 2 Hours 42 Minutes
  • Cast:  Malin Åkerman, Billy Crudup, Matthew Goode, Carla Gugino, Jackie Earle, Haley Jeffrey, Dean Morgan, Patrick Wilson, and Others
  • Directed By: Zack Snyder
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix

Guardians of the Galaxy: Volume 2

One of the prominent characters to appear in a Marvel movie is Peter Quill’s father and Kurt Russell’s painting of him surely doesn’t hurt.

There are several really clever gags in the film, and the plot is more bewitching and entertaining than in the original. There are a few who partly overstay their welcome, but overall they are all fantastic. The bond between the two sisters is another love-hate relationship in the plot.  

Guardians of the Galaxy
Guardians of the Galaxy (Credits: Netflix)

Those who were raised by an abusive father include Gamora and Nebula. The sacrifices made by her sister allowed Gamora to maintain her beauty. This film includes everything and the kitchen sink, from beginning to end. It is undoubtedly the most exciting thing you will ever see since everything is larger, better, funnier, and quite more emotional than in the original GOTG. So you can be assured that you will enjoy this movie.

  • Released in: 2017
  • IMDB Score: 7.6
  • Runtime: 2 Hours 16 Minutes
  • Cast:  Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldaña, Dave Bautista, Vin Diesel, Bradley Cooper, Michael Rooker, Karen Gillan, and Others
  • Directed By: James Gunn
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix

The Old Guard

An unexpected new member is found, and a clandestine group of immortal soldiers are suddenly revealed and must now struggle to maintain their anonymity. This quest for the drawbacks of invincibility is fascinating. Aside from the emotional impact, having experienced several global conflicts and witnessing your own family members age and pass away is harsh enough to give anyone an unquenchable desire to put an end to war, starvation, persecution, and illness.

The Old Guard
The Old Guard (Credits: Netflix)

The Old Guard is one of the greatest Netflix productions of all time. Exceptionally well-developed characters with a lovely interplay between them are portrayed by a lovely array of performers. It’s a superb materiality to change up the genre and show a different side of guys than we’re used to seeing have men who are indicated as sympathetic and loving in action films. 

  • Released in: 2020
  • IMDB Score: 6.6
  • Runtime: 2 Hours 05 Minutes
  • Cast: Charlize Theron, Marwan Kenzari, Harry Melling, KiKi Layne, Luca Marinelli, Veronica Ngo, and Others
  • Directed By: Gina Prince-Bythewood
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix

Project Power

Project Power, a new cool action comedy from Netflix, has Dominique Fish, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and Jamie Foxx as main characters. The movie had no flat instants and was filled with fantastic action scenes and mind-blowing special effects. I was engrossed in the narrative from the beginning to the conclusion since it had a good feeling of urgency.

Project Power

The variety of the actors gave choices in the movie plot is also a plus. Since everything emerges to have been done well, the editing deserves praise. The commission of the plot is fine, and the whole thing is pretty refreshing. It’s not too gloomy, thanks to a little subdued humor. Particularly in the final act, the action scenes are glorious. Not everyone may enjoy the few models when the camera pans about too much during the action, but overall it provides a demanded purpose of chaos to the story.

  • Released in: 2020
  • IMDB Score: 6.0
  • Runtime: 1 Hour 53 Minutes
  • Cast:  Jamie Foxx, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Dominique Fishback, Rodrigo Santoro, Colson Baker, Allen Maldonado, Amy Landecker, and Others
  • Directed By: Henry Joost and Ariel Schulman

Hancock

Will Smith portrays John Hancock as a reluctant superhero who lives in his own world and is miserable. Hancock has started drinking heavily and is depressed for an unforeseen cause.

Over the years, he has saved countless lives in Los Angeles, but in doing so, he has no care for destroying any cars, buildings, trains, roads, or other obstacles in his path. A different kind of superhero movie is Hancock.

Hancock
Hancock (Credits: Netflix)

The movie is unique in that its hero is a douchebag who has given up on life after drinking. The Rodney Dangerfield of superheroes, Hancock, is treated disrespectfully. Superheroes are liked and praised for rescuing us from peril. You won’t see some of the plot’s twists and turns coming.

Smith, Bateman, and Theron worked well as a trio. The film has a lot of action and unique spectacular effects, and it is enjoyable. All in all, it is a decent, enjoyable movie.

  • Released in: 2008
  • IMDB Score: 6.4
  • Runtime: 1 Hour 32 Minutes
  • Cast:  Will Smith, Charlize Theron, Jason Bateman, Eddie Marsan, and Others
  • Directed By: Peter Berg
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice

There are no awkward transitions between scenes; everything moves along well. Spending time with his mum and father is a treat for Superman. Investigative journalism is practiced by Clark Kent.

After the explosion, Superman assists the mob. Lois Lane looks into the reason for the crime thoroughly without reaching any impulsive assumptions. It is perfectly directed for Superman and Batman to grow resentful of one another.

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (Credits: Netflix)

The reason Batman despises Superman is very understandable. Then, when they really start fighting, it’s pretty much the best thing you can hope to witness in a superhero movie. This movie has it all. Dramatic tension is present immediately away. ‘Man of Steel’ is followed by a wonderful story arc that pulls the audience into the lives of Bruce Wayne/Batman and Clark Kent/Superman in a seamless fashion—a good watch.

  • Released in: 2016
  • IMDB Score: 6.4
  • Runtime: 2 Hours 31 Minutes
  • Cast: Ben Affleck, Jesse Eisenberg, Henry Cavill, Diane Lane, Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne, Gal Gadot, Jeremy Irons, Holly Hunter, and Others
  • Directed By: Zack Snyder
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix

BloodShot

Each shot in the movie was really lively, and the cinematography was superb. If you look at it that way, the beginning isn’t as off-putting anymore and rather feels necessary.

Even the early scenes that felt like a series of quick clips or trailers that felt like lazy story telling and that felt somewhat off-putting gave him the motivation he needed to exact revenge.

Bloodshot
Bloodshot (Credits: Netflix)

Bloodshot‘s design is very spectacular; at one point, half of his face is blasted off, and he continues to fire at the target before the Nanites have even put his face and ear back together. Not everything is as it seems, the movie’s main lesson. The moral of the story can only be comprehended by watching the movie. It is a respectable film, but keep your expectations in check before starting this movie.

  • Released in: 2016
  • IMDB Score: 5.7
  • Runtime: 1 Hour 49 Minutes
  • Cast: Vin Diesel, Eiza González, Sam Heughan, Toby Kebbell, Guy Pearce, and Others
  • Directed By: David S. F. Wilson
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix

Psychokinesis

Ryu Seung-Yong is good as the psychokinetic Superman, who is very sympathetic and just like other people, and he is well placed for the starring part. The performance of Shim Eun-Kyung is fantastic and outstanding.

Also quite impressive is Jung Yu-mi, who plays a small but well-written part. The visual effects are ideal and lifelike. For a movie that heavily relies on visual effects, the VFX team didn’t let us “feel” the VFX is a huge success.

Psychokinesis
Psychokinesis (Credits: Netflix)

Any superhero movie has the finest action scenes. Every show of the action blocks displays creativity, but the last shot is sure to draw applause and whistles. “PSYCHOKINESIS” is South Korea’s first try at a superhero film, and it deserves support in addition to appreciation, especially given how expertly constructed and designed it is.

  • Released in: 2018
  • IMDB Score: 5.9
  • Runtime: 1 Hour 41 Minutes
  • Cast:  Ryu Seung-ryong, Shim Eun-kyung, Park Jung-min, Kim Min-jae, Jung Yu-mi, and Others
  • Directed By: Yeon Sang-ho
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix

Cat Woman

Catwoman’s motions are a feat of special effects; sometimes, she feeds like a starving animal and leaps and moves in packed stretches like a cat. Without being overly violent, action scenes are gripping and beautiful to see.

The Catwoman
The Catwoman (Credits: Netflix)

Catwoman depends less on just whacking her opponents and more on her ability to evade harm. The movie has a compelling love interest and a best female friend who mostly maintains the humor.

The “Catwoman” character is a kind in the lore as it is described here, not a single token. Patience is only the latest Catwoman in a long queue. From start to finish, it was a really entertaining journey with catchy action and stylish costumes. The maturity of people doesn’t think it has any worth, but its entertainment value and flare more than makeup for what it lacks in essence, content, and depth.

  • Released in: 2004
  • IMDB Score: 3.4
  • Runtime: 1 Hour 41 Minutes
  • Cast:  Halle Berry, Benjamin Bratt, Lambert Wilson, Frances Conroy, Sharon Stone, and Others
  • Directed By: Pitof
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix

Morbius

It was well-acted and had a catchy and good plot, and was spiced with strong action scenes and eye-catching special effects. The gods and heroes of old stories have modern-day analogs in comic book characters and movie characters. As a result, they all have a sense of absurdity about them.

Morbius
Morbius (Credits: Netflix)

This movie is entertaining, has quick pacing, a tonne of action, and lovely effects, with strong ties to Sony’s monster and the spider universe. Keep your expectations in check before watching this movie.

  • Released in: 2020
  • IMDB Score: 3.4
  • Runtime: 1 Hour 44 Minutes
  • Cast: Jared Leto, Adria Arjona, Matt Smith, Al Madrigal, Jared Harris, Tyrese Gibson, and Others
  • Directed By: Daniel Espinosa
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix

Major Grom: Plague Doctor

Igor Grom, the main character, is a St. Petersburg police officer. He never accepts bribes and honestly believes in justice. On his way, a Plague Doctor arrives. He is obsessed with the notion that only death should be used as a penalty for lawbreakers and dishonest government officials.

Major Grom: Plague Doctor
Major Grom: Plague Doctor (Credits: Netflix)

The authors chose not to employ some genre clichés and instead created an intriguing villain with a compelling desire to revise the world in such a way that you can even sympathize with him. The relationships between the other characters are strong and appealing.

The movie’s humor isn’t very sharp, but it’s suitable and not on par with Russian comedies. To put it another way, jokes often reflect the interaction between the characters while also blending with the scene’s mood and circumstances.

  • Released in: 2021
  • IMDB Score: 6.3
  • Runtime: 2 Hours 17 Minutes
  • Cast:  Tikhon Zhiznevsky, Lyubov Aksyonova, Aleksei Maklakov, Aleksandr Seteykin, Sergei Goroshko, Dmitry Chebotaryov, and Others
  • Directed By: Oleg Trofim
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix

We Can Be Heroes

We Can Be Heroes was cleverly put, with a satisfying amount of foreshadowing and surprisingly thorough background information on each individual.

To the uneducated eye, the film arises to be full of plot flaws and clichéd twists, yet to a true professional, the story is magnificently constructed with the heroes all interacting with one another and working together to defeat the “villain.”

We Can Be Heroes
We Can Be Heroes (Credits: Netflix)

This film is a flawless family entertainment choice since it is aware of what it is. It is better than the modern Spy Kids and has more prominent writing than Zenon or Shark Boy and Lavagirl, two prior fan favorites. It is a kid’s movie, and it delivers in the same manner. If you have kids in the family, then definitely check this movie out with them

  • Released in: 2020
  • IMDB Score: 4.7
  • Runtime: 1 Hour 37 Minutes
  • Cast:  YaYa Gosselin, Lyon Daniels, Andy Walken, Hala Finley, Lotus Blossom, Dylan Henry Lau, Andrew Diaz, Isaiah Russel-Bailey, and Others
  • Directed By: Robert Rodriguez
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix

The Suicide Squad

James Gunn does a fantastic job of balancing the characters’ mental journeys to the moment that you get interested in their backstories and hope to see them grow. He also expertly displays this.

Many of the classic DC superheroes lacked this quality, and even though these men are bad guys, you still have a soft spot for them. The combination of laughter and violent violence will shock but also delight you.

The Suicide Squad
The Suicide Squad (Credits: Netflix)

This distinguishes DC from Marvel since the film does not hold back on the gore, blood, or horrifying demises. This is undoubtedly a crucial ingredient in the film, with serial killers as the major protagonists. In the modern superhero movie universe, this film more than holds up.

It features vibrant, exciting, well-executed measure that never feels forced. Every combat scenario is distinct and exciting, and you always look forward to the next one.

  • Released in: 2021
  • IMDB Score: 7.2
  • Runtime: 2 Hours 12 Minutes
  • Cast: John Cena, Joel Kinnaman, Viola Davis, Margot Robbie, Idris Elba, Sylvester Stallone, Jai Courtney, Peter Capaldi, and Others
  • Directed By: James Gunn
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse

The plot is beautiful, orienting a new Spider-Man with his own set of mastery and characteristics. The production is performed with absolute accuracy, and the narrative is tightly written. The voice acting is excellent in every manner. Right after the exquisite visuals, this is perhaps the second finest aspect of the film. Shamiek Moore gives Miles Morales so much life, and his field is on par with that of any marked actor. He goes by Miles Morales.

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse
Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (Credits: Netflix)

Even while Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse is an animated comic book, it is also so much more. A story that is majorly emanated from the very medium in which it is being created but never ever deemed forced or hollow.

It’s an explosion of comic book ink and paper, a dizzying palette of superbly rich colors, and a jaw-dropping display of digital creativity fused with real roles we care about. A second Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is also coming out in the near future.

  • Released in: 2018
  • IMDB Score: 8.4
  • Runtime: 1 Hour 56 Minutes
  • Cast:  Hailee Steinfeld, Shameik Moore, Jake Johnson, Mahershala Ali, Brian Tyree, Henry Lily, Tomlin Luna, Lauren Vélez, John Mulaney, Kimiko Glenn, and Others
  • Directed By: Bob Persichetti, Peter Ramsey, and Rodney Rothman
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix

Freaks: You’re One of Us

This is one of the finest depictions of everyday life since it successfully balances realism with imagination. The plot is succinct and overlooks any hyperboles or absurdities that can arouse unimportant emotions in the pursuit of an engaging enough narrative.

Freaks: You're One of Us
Freaks: You’re One of Us (Credits: Netflix)

The problem is an individual’s span to control their power so as not to pose a threat to society. From the beginning to the end, the script is great. Performances are excellent.

Two action-packed moments fall short of expectations and even contain a few overblown parts. If you enjoy films with symbolic plots, don’t miss this one. Not to worry, following along isn’t that tough. Fantastic special effects, action, and acting.

  • Released in: 2018
  • IMDB Score: 5.4
  • Runtime: 1 Hour 32 Minutes
  • Cast:  Finnlay Berger, Thelma Buabeng, Gisa Flake, and Others
  • Directed By: Felix Binder

Hulk

Hulk, the movie directed by Ang Lee, is very true to the comics. When I watched the movie, it emerged as though some of the scenes were directly taken from Stan Lee’s stories.

The comic book versions of Hulk see him taking on army tanks in the desert, jumping over canyon cliffs, touching the brim of space, and yes, even his dogs. Bruce Banner’s violent father, Brian Banner, who is said to have played a role in the Genesis of the Hulk, is the direct inspiration for the father of the Hulk in the film.

Hulk

I think what makes Ang Lee’s Hulk movie stand out is his bright guidance, effective use of visual metaphor, and adherence to the source comics. In the first close-up, we get the Hulk free and leaping over the desert to the eerie Danny Elfman score. May the scene that most encapsulate Ang Lee’s plot is great, and it will take you back to the comic days. 

  • Released in: 2003
  • IMDB Score: 5.6
  • Runtime: 2 Hours 18 Minutes
  • Cast: Eric Bana, Sam Elliott, Jennifer Connelly, Nick Nolte, Josh Lucas, and Others

The Last Airbender

The movie very nearly captured every important factor of the animated series. There is room for modification in the acting, but it will come. They will become better by the second film and by the third.

There is no disputing the outstanding surroundings and effects. Viewers with an open mind would see that this movie wasn’t entirely horrible and deserved a chance, which it is now receiving.

The Last Airbender
The Last Airbender (Credits: Netflix)

It’s quite overlooked by the audience, and people will start to relish the live-action movie more when they stop comparing it to the series and start viewing it as a movie that can stand on its own two feet with only a few borrowed elements. Amazing special effects have been used. The Last Airbender advances at a breakneck speed and never becomes boring. Without cheap blood flying and gore, the fight scenes manage to keep things flowing while still being believable.

  • Released in: 2010
  • IMDB Score: 4.0
  • Runtime: 1 Hour 43 Minutes
  • Cast:  Noah Ringer, Dev Patel, Nicola Peltz, Jackson Rathbone, Shaun Toub, Aasif Mandvi, Cliff Curtis, and Others
  • Directed By: M. Night Shyamalan
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix

Blade: Trinity

The movie introduces Jessica Biel in a tense tube scene where the action is exciting, and the fighting is gorgeous, but it mainly looks like a moment for Jessica to show her fighting; perhaps they might have thought of a more prominent plot to introduce her.

It’s difficult even to see Ryan Reynolds enter. However, a series of fights and camera work that gives the spectator little time to contemplate quickly makes us forget how absurd it is.

Blade: Trinity
Blade: Trinity (Credits: Netflix)

There hasn’t been a movie with a narrative that tightens up so soon in a long time. Blade Trinity is fine for the first and second, especially with Jessica and Ryan joining.

They improve the watching ability of the film and set it apart from the prior two. Overall it is a pleasant movie; given that it came out in 2004, the CGI and action scenes were well-guided.

  • Released in: 2004
  • IMDB Score: 5.8
  • Runtime: 1 Hour 53 Minutes
  • Cast: Ryan Reynolds, Wesley Snipes, Kris Kristofferson, Jessica Biel, Parker Posey, Natasha Lyonne, Dominic Purcell, Paul Michael Levesque, and Others

Bhavesh Joshi Superhero

This movie’s plot is really nicely constructed. This confirms the issues that Indian lives face on a daily basis, including how the media houses define all of us, from politicians to government officials.

This movie has several gorgeously shot scenes. The finest thing about this film is how well it shows the growth and interaction of a superhero and his mask.

Bhavesh Joshi Superhero
Bhavesh Joshi Superhero (Credits: Netflix)

Batman Begins, and DC movies are used as a vague model for the film’s look, but the narrative and premise are actually powerful.

The acting is passable, but the background scores are only average. You may think the narrative is a little bloated and that some of the sequences are out of place, but other than that, it is definitely worth seeing.

  • Released in: 2018

Spider-Man: No Way Home

The trilogy’s great conclusion, Spider-Man: No Way Home, features Holland in his strongest Spider-Man performance to date. It starts as pleasurable, safe, and familiar before turning really emotional, rewarding, and full of fantastic callbacks.

Tom Holland delivers a fantastic lead role, this time with much more emotional weight in addition to his usual charm and likeability. Holland, Zendaya, and Jacob Batalon have a great connection and are impressive in their own right.

The score by Michael Giacchino is great; it strikes a wonderful mix between themes from earlier incarnations and usage of Holland’s recognizable themes, which are subtly changed in ways that suit a few new, likable epic additions. The hyped helped this movie massively. Overall it is a fun movie to keep you hooked and a required installment in the lineup of Marvel Spiderman movies.

Minnal Murali

On Christmas Eve, two people—an ambitious trader named Jaison, played by Tovino Thomas, a worker at a tea store named Shibu, played by Gurugar Somasundaram, and the antagonist—were struck by lightning in a self-contained community. After learning about their proficiency, they sought to put them to the test and apply them in regular life. The latter used it to rob banks and commit killings to be closer to his love Usha. He engaged in a confrontation with the peasants as a result, and Minnal Murali fought with him to defend the local populace.

The background music is nice, and the action moments are fantastic. Good editing ensures that the length is never a problem. Overall, Minnal Murali is a riveting superhero movie filled with action, humor, drama, and all the excitement a fresh superhero needs for his or her first on-screen voyage.

How I Became a Superhero

The movie depicts how people with unimaginable strength and related behavior in everyday life. It does not illustrate those who possess these powers as good or bad but as stable people managing their daily lives.

The villain, while evil, is fairly understanding after you hear about his past, and the heroes are normal people who feel that they have a duty to use their talents for good.

Each character is engaging and convincing in their respective positions. While the action is great, it still gives the narrative room to breathe. Even in calmer times, there is curiosity and never a dull moment.

How I Became a Superhero is a supported exit from the gloomy “all superhumans are evil” theme that arose in films like Invincible and The Boys, as well as the lighter “all superhumans are good and noble” trope that often comes in DC and Marvel comics and television shows.

  • Released in: 2020

Superlopez

This is an honest film that makes good use of the self-irony and low-budget CGI it has to contribute. And this is the only thing you should expect. If you’re looking for something to make you chuckle, I’d highly suggest it.

This film was not intended to be taken seriously and was not intended to be a major superhero movie. Nearly two hours of entertainment are the product of their willful gaggles. You’ll likely also loathe this if you’re in search of funny, clever dialogue. However, if you prefer corny, lighthearted films and superhero parodies, you could appreciate it.

  • Released in: 2018
  • IMDB Score: 5.4
  • Runtime: 1 Hour 48 Minutes
  • Cast:  Dani Rovira, Alexandra Jiménez, Julián López, Pedro Casablanc, Maribel Verdú, Gracia Olayo, Ferrán Rañé, Gonzalo de Castro, and Others

Man of Steel

Man of Steel is exhilarating, philosophic, rich, and vibrant—a new and updated take on Superman. The starting Krypton sequence alone is superb and worth the price of admission. People who can’t go beyond Christopher Reeves have voiced their grievances. This is perhaps the greatest Superman movie ever. The narrative of Krypton in the film—whether it is live-action or animated—is unparalleled.

Man of Steel

While we watch Superman‘s challenges and advancements in real-time, the relationships are so firmly created, and the backstory is wonderfully presented. Overall, this is a terrific film; we even see flashes of a more sure and even cocky Superman when he consents to be handcuffed by the police and in the drone scene near the conclusion. If only the studios had kept out of it and let a real sequel develop naturally.

  • Released in: 2013
  • IMDB Score: 7.1

Batman Begins

The earlier films would never have done this, but Christopher Nolan transforms this into a very gloomy and melancholy story that focuses more on Bruce Wayne than Batman. Being a renowned director, Nolan takes a big risk by portraying what may be the most consequential action hero on screen in a way that makes Gotham and its elements looks and feels authentic rather than like they were copied from a comic book. Batman Begins is time and money well paid.

Batman Begins

It draws you into a plot that is unfamiliar to Batman, and it is a fresh experience for the audience bringing you to Gotham City, namely its decaying heart. When Batman appears, it is really very distinct from prior depictions.

The story flows along very smoothly, and the action in this film is more built on suspense than violence, making it feel shorter than its 140-minute running length.

  • Released in: 2005
  • IMDB Score: 8.2
  • Runtime: 2 Hours 20 Minutes

Thunder Force

McCarthy and Bateman compliment each other, albeit it took them some time to get rolling. The entire movie is humorous, and the few icky things are done so effectively that they stand out. I believe this movie is just what you would expect it to be. It’s an amusing film that’s intended for everyone. The plot reads like a mashup of elements from previous superhero movies.

The conclusion is revealed before the narrative even starts. They have a good cast and are excellent at playing silly.The script should have been crisper and more intelligent, but it works for a fun semi-action film. All in all, it is a fun movie to watch and have fun with. 

  • Released in: 2005
  • IMDB Score: 4.5

Baby Geniuses

It’s hardly surprising that all those envious adults were offended by this movie because those babies are smarter than most people. One can only gush over the skillfully performed martial arts and the vocally fluent children who were evidently raised for this film.

Baby Geniuses

Maybe most people aren’t used to being babied, but these juniors will undoubtedly be the world’s thinkers and stars in the future. This movie highlights everyone’s fetal nature and our biblical relationship to the womb, whatever that link may be. It is a fun movie to enjoy with the whole family, especially kids.

Unknown Origins 

A Spanish-language thriller with elements from Argentina. In order to dissect a string of killings, a police officer’s guide, a comic book fanatic youth, sets himself the responsibility of working with comic books. Spectacular quality, along with superior drama and directing. The camera layout, sounds, and photography are all nicely done. After-credits sequences. Only two minutes are required for the effects to reach their full potential.

Origenes Secretos (Spanish) leads us on a journey filled with absurd conversation and grisly criminal scenes via turns. Although there should have been room for revision in character development, the characters make perfect sanity as the movie nears its conclusion.

Legend of Gatotkaca

This is a huge step forward for the Indonesian film industry. The well-developed plot with the current and modern culture will impress those who are keen and knowledgeable about traditional Javanese culture and its mythology. The visual effects should be admired in addition to the local culture and values that the movie skillfully conveys.

These effects are highly developed and exhibit Indonesia’s power to compete in the global cinema business, while there may yet be some improvements that strength be made in the future. People are to be aware of this and enjoy it in order to aid the Indonesian film industry. The CGI, action sequence, plot twist, and character development are all well-planned. So congratulations to the director, actor, and writer of the screenplay.

Supa Modo

A little girl’s ambition of becoming a superhero is threatened by a deadly illness in the narrative of Supa Modo, which motivates her town to band together to fulfill her wish. It is a sweet, precious, and beautifully crafted children’s movie that addresses challenging topics like mortality and disease in an endearing way so that younger viewers may be publicized and touched.

Supa Modo

That entirely said, it’s a great movie for youths aged 7 to 12. Even though it sometimes comes across as caused, tacky, and corny, if you’re a parent, your child should see this movie. As a parent, you should definitely make sure that your children watch this movie; it has a good message that will surely have a positive impact on your kids.

Venom

It was a wise decision to cast Tom Hardy in the part, and he gives a strong interpretation as an underdog on the path to becoming the hero. The humor plays an important role in uplifting the watching experience of an otherwise dull movie.

The two Deadpool movies pale in comparison to this comic book movie, which is by far the funniest I’ve watched to date. It really reminds me of an 80s horror comedy directed by John Landis or Sam Raimi. Absolute madness in the greatest sense.

Venom

By crafting a narrative with parts relevant to the character rather than just using checklists like other films, Venom is the one that sticks out. It feels like it could have gone on longer and is satisfying.

Instead of feeling that the movie is now forcing me to keep watching it because it has been drawn out too much, I’d like to feel unfulfilled.

  • Released in: 2018

Shazam!

A movie that the whole family can easily see! Both novices and the elderly may love the way it combines tension, action, and humor. Because the superhero is a teen who became a superhero, the narrative is recounted from the perspective of a child.

The great thing about this movie is how funny and action-packed it is when he finds his superpower. He gets the ability to rely on those nearest to him, including his new family. The bulk of root myths tends to place more emphasis on the launch of the Super-villain than on the creation of the Superhero.

Shazam!

For this narrative, this strategy excels. I really liked how this movie excels at establishing the fantastical world of comics in reality. In superhero movies, you don’t really get those kinds of things as often.

Comparable to reading a comic book. Although there are a few minor issues, Shazam! is so entertaining that one doesn’t want to focus on the drawbacks.

  • Released in: 2019

IBoy

A young kid, played by Bill Milner, from the suburbs of London, is shot in the head when he learns his friend, played by Maisie Williams being sexually attacked. His brain is bombarded with pieces of his phone, giving him authority over all technological devices.

A fresh idea for a kid getting a superpowers plot. Tom Milner does a good job of portraying the Peter Parker type; he transforms into a superhero and turns into a real badass, but occasionally he starts to question why he’s doing it all.

IBoy

Maisie Williams does a good job portraying Lucy, who isn’t only the stereotypical girlfriend in the film but also a strong-willed woman.

It’s difficult to produce a good movie these days, but this one is amazing. In this movie, we have fantastic special effects and a fantastic plot with a fantastic cast. 

  • Released in: 2017

Aquaman

This film strikes the ideal equalizer between all the parts vital for a superhero movie. It’s full of emotions, humor, fun, and seriousness. Aquaman is best seen in a theatre for the full experience.

He had the bravery and risk to make this superhero a reality. The aforesaid least popular superhero was Aquaman. Wan has created an improbable method of storytelling with this explicit portrayal that grips us from the beginning to the very end.

Aquaman
Aquaman (Credits: Netflix)

The narration, the visual effects, and the overall are on another level. We experience no lag as the narrative leads us to a fresh experience. The actors were skilled in their roles. It is one of the most closely related comic book movies ever filmed.

James Wan creates a fantastic film that is chock-full of exciting action sequences, touching concerns, beautiful videography, and creative imagery. Most crucially, Aquaman is straight out of the comics, which is the ultimate aim of any film that adjusts a comic book.

  • Released in: 2018
  • IMDB Score: 6.8

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

The actors and crew accepted the absurd detail in the original material and improved the overall film as a result. Every joke is funny, and the four brothers’ interactions are fantastic; it is clear that these performers get along well.

Amazing action scenes were synced at the fastest pace for the human eye to see them. In this scenario, the action and war scenes are engaging and ravishing in contrast to Transformers and other pictures where the action and combat are so messy, confusing, and hard to follow that you simply want to fast through to the end.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

The action scenes were fantastic, and there was a great balance between the silly “video game” fights and the very fierce Ninjutsu fights.

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles plot has all the spectacle you’d expect from a high-budget film, and it’s better than ever. The CGI is the finest you will see in the movies available today.
