The Russo brothers are also returning to the chairs of their directors to bring this next stage of Marvel’s cinematic universe to a climatic end. Oh yes, and Robert Downey Jr is back, This time as Doctor Supervillain Doctor Doom.

As we prepare for a fresh lifetime of MCU crossing chaos, it’s fun to look back at the legacy that built the foundation for these commemorative cinematic projects. There have been four live action Avengers films, in particular, in the MCU so far. The first one started the eponymous group on the big screen road back in 2012, with the last one bringing Thanos to its head -cloves seven years later.

Each “Avengers” flic is especially in its own way. But which are better than the others? Let’s take a quick journey down a memory lane by graduating a movie quartet in the “Avengers” franchise from the worst to the first, will we do?

The first one on the list, and the most defective of the four films, is “Avengers: Age of Ultron.” Now, out of the gate, let’s make one thing clear: all four of these films are amazing projects with good acting, plenty of splash visual effects, and compelling stories that make them worth watching.

Cause of point: Although this one generally comes in the last of most rated lists (and is often relatively low in MCU sites in general), it is still packed with important and memorable moments. This is the story where Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen) enters her own. He explores the stone of mind, helping to establish the infinity war saga to come. He testifies to the birth of a vision (Paul Bettany), along with the creation of Ultron (James Spader), and introduces the Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner) family. He also establishes the tensions for “Captain America: Civil War” and gives Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) his initial moment. And don’t forget about that last credit scene where Thanos (Josh Brolin) is preparing to “do himself,” too.

Like all MCU crossings, there is a lot to allocate here – and much to enjoy too. However, this is also part of what drags this one down. The film drags slightly, partly because of its own ongoing weight of multiple character arcs and over-stretched storytelling. It has no reference (apart from the obvious Ultron business) and is more important as a way to set up exciting events outside its own 141 minute run time. Suffice it to say that, although critical, this is not the experience of Avengers who naturally arises above the others according to his own merits.

When he came out, “The Avengers” was the experience of the show of life. After four years of teasing final credit and minor gameos character, this was the first large multi-hero crossroads in the MCU. The film shepherds the original six revenge through their initial formation and early growing pains. It shows them a rally around the death of Coulson’s agent (Clark Gregg) and goes through their initial trials as they try to stop Loki supported by Thanos (Tom Hiddleston). It also doubles as the first time we have seen the Titan Mad on the screen, and reveals more about previous crossing characters such as Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) and Hawkeye. On top of all that, the film presents the re -drawing bruce banner (with Mark Ruffalo taking the reins After Edward Norton’s tenure as Hulk creates an institutional change in MCU’s operations).

Around, this film has so much to offer, and is fully adhering to the landing in its function as an introduction to this critical crew in the MCU. That said, it’s a third out of the four “Avengers” films just because it’s not big enough. The film is essentially a story of origin (though for a group rather than an individual), and although those are exciting, the most interesting and compelling narratives are rarely. When implemented well, they provide a necessary foundation that lays the earth for the more interesting play to come – and that’s something “The Avengers” do with aplomb.

“Avengers: Endgame” and “Avengers: Infinity War” are neck and neck at the top of this list. They are both incredible achievements of cinema that manages to juggle dozens of well -known actors, complex story lines, and a universe bursting at the seams in size and scope. That said, one of them had to come second, and “Endgame” does so for a few different reasons.

Let’s start with a simple statistical analysis. Both of these “Avengers” films are currently rating among 250 best IMDB films ever (the other two do not). But while each has an 8.4 star score, “Endgame” is 75th, but “Infinity War” is 61st. Of course, our site is based on more than an IMDB score, but the nature of the sources of that list crowd says much in terms of so closely comparison.

“Endgame” is epic and complex, but as is the case with “ultron age,” complexity can be a two -edge sword. So much happens that it becomes difficult to tend to every individual and a story line and still move towards a satisfactory collection. Speaking of conclusions, any film where you have to bring a decade of joined -up cinema and dozens of hours of overlapping stories to a happy ending faces an almost impossible task. No matter how you slice it, someone (and often many) is going to be upset with every decision you make. From the decision to kill Black Widow and Iron Man (Downey Jr.) to the way Thanos died to the use of time travel as a “we can do it all”, there is plenty of dragging this one down to keep it from the highest place. That leaves us with …

“Avengers: Infinity War” is the biggest “Avengers” movie to date. As well as being the highest position of the four films in the franchise by the wider public, the film fulfills the impossible: to tell its huge story, maintain incredible emotional poles, and build amazing momentum without being bogged down in the details.

The key to this success? Thanos.

Thanos is the clear central figure of “Avengers: Infinity War.” He drives the story on and, critically, brings together different, remote elements of the MCU into one stunning narrative. An MCU version of Thanos is also full of a sense of fate -like crusader, which elevates its comic book story line and helps focus the plot on one purpose, which is driven furthly throughout the two and a half hour experience. Add the scale and scope of the film in the mixture, and you have a recipe for success.

All of this doesn’t even touch one of the biggest things that help this stand apart: the ending. The Last moments of “Avengers: Infinity War” (which marks Ruffalo famously spoiled a year early) sets the poles as high as possible and then does not remove its punch. In the first watch, he leaves fans devastating and desperate for the next episode of the saga. From its central villain to its power crossing to its high linin, this one creates one of the biggest experiences in the entire MCU cannon. The only way that could be replaced at this point is that if returning RDJ as Doctor Doom could take somehow this cinematic comic book universe to even higher heights. Our suggestion to pull that away? Do not pull your punch. Said Nuff.
