 * 1) Captain America: Civil War - Spectacular action sequences, very sympathetic: The Russo brothers are 2 for 2.
 * 2) Captain America: The Winter Soldier - A completely different Marvel film right out of the gate when Cap kicked one of the mercs off the Lemurian Star. Set the tone for the rest of the film beautifully.
 * 3) Guardians of the Galaxy - Had great action, humor, a nice Star Wars-Indiana Jones blend. A meh villain, but that's practically the only flaw.
 * 4) The Avengers - This is the culmination of four years of stand-alone films. It lives up to the hype: It has great action pieces, a great villain (actually, the best villain in Phase 1) and the acting was executed perfectly.
 * 5) The Incredible Hulk - Some might beg to differ, but I preferred Edward Norton over Mark Ruffalo (not saying Ruffalo is bad) - Norton played a great Bruce Banner and the action scenes were intense.
 * 6) Captain America: The First Avenger - A great origin story about the super-soldier fighting for freedom.
 * 7) Avengers: Age of Ultron - Doesn't fully reach the heights of the Avengers, but that isn't to say that it isn't bad. Has the action, has a villain, a sturdy plot, basically all the essentials for a Marvel film.
 * 8) Iron Man - I'm tired of writing more descriptions for these films, so I'll skip to the very end. The action was good, the villain was too generic (if you think about it, this and Ant-Man are just parallels of each other) but that teaser... (applause).
 * 9) Ant-Man
 * 10) Iron Man 3
 * 11) Thor
 * 12) Iron Man 2
 * 13) Thor: The Dark World - This was the only MCU film I despised. Sure, it's nice to see Thor but the humor was downright stupid. The action sequences were a meh - I mean, to think that Malekith, a 1,000+ year old (who was supposed to be good, but was a letdown) god who is in possession of the Reality Stone, one of six infinity stones was defeated by three scientists and two sticks. Nice special effects, tho.
