Fans all over agree that these are the best Superhero movies. Ever.

Superheroes are nothing but the result of a troubled generation looking out for some hyperbolic hope in the form of imaginary characters with superhuman capabilities. Turning these fictional characters from dark-faints strokes of comic pages to flesh and bones have been quite a task for movie makers.

But aren’t humans all about chasing challenges and changing the imperceivable to perceivable? These movies just managed to exemplify that undying spirit of movie makers and showed us that everything is just as real as we want it to be.

All that matters is the intensity of your wanting.

This decade has seen a major chunk of superhero movies and has seen the rise in the fan following of these caped/non-caped superhumans. Does that reflect that we as a race have fallen short of role models to rely on? Are our hopes of a better future dangling on one (or maybe more) spandex-suited character?

That being said, there are some who just view movies for the thrills of it (which form a majority, for we are nothing but a bunch of realists, aren’t we?) and spend all that moolah enjoying the super-expensive VFX which if used efficiently would perhaps save some African nation from starvation.

Till we have the immortal hunger for entertainment, superhero movies will continue keeping us hooked and make sure that we believe in the concept of superior humans.

And so far, these movies have almost managed to make us wish that these characters were actually real.

Here is a list of breathtaking superhero movies stun the brain out of you:

Captain America: The Winter Soldier

Thought the preceding movie of the star-spangled superhero may not have done that well on the Big Screen, Steve Rogers saw a new awakening with this sequel. A movie that was more than just firing guns and hand-to-hand combat galore, this movie was also about two friends. It indeed was refreshing to see an abstract value like this being the core of the movie. Everything in this movie was perfect and on point. Chris Evans nailed the part like none other and we just cannot wait for Captain to lead the Avengers against gorier villains. With a total collection of approx. $95 millions, the movie looks good even on the monetary frontier.

2. Superman 2

The classic movie has been encased in our hearts ever since it launched and generations since have watched and marveled, not just at his abilities, but his benevolence. His disinterested and unrequited love for humans, especially Lois. this movie actually came with a turbulent behind-the-history but the audiences were fortunately unaware of the tumultuous unseen action. The movie managed to do really great at the Box Office is still the source of a “don’t change!” cry when it comes on the TV.

3. Daredevil

The one with Charlie Cox may be creating ripples in the Infinite ocean of Internet. But even before this Blind Vigilante of Hell’s Kitchen was cool, Ben Affleck pulled an absolute stunner with this movie. It may have not done that well on screens and not many enthusiasts would recommend you to watch this one, but it truly is a great attempt. Ben Affleck displayed perfect agility and skill that left audiences mesmerized. This was one movie, though highly debatable, that managed to establish the superhero aura around Affleck. This aura helped us visualise Affleck turn into BatFleck.

4. Man Of Steel

Zack Synder is well-known for pulling off unbelievable concepts and this was no different. Filming the story of a boy from a distant planet and making Earth his home (and later his Battleground) is a difficult concept and that goes without saying. Zack in all his expertise pulled this one off as smoothly as Superman’s levitation. Henry Cavill was chosen to be play the “Son of Krypton” and we must say that he has been the apt choice for his looks are truly ‘out of this world.’

5. Spider-Man 2

A story that gripped us as tightly as Dr. Octopus and his tentacles, Spider-Man 2 sure was an exciting adventure by itself. This movie saw the Bug-boy’s hamartia as he seems to lose his powers. When push comes to shove, he is forced to try running over building roofs only to fall in vain. The struggle gets real when Dr. Octopus gets Mary Jane Watson (who seems to have a knack to get into trouble) and Peter has to re-discover his powers. An absolute stunner pulled off by Sam Raimi.

6. The Dark Knight

Now this movie just makes me run to the top of hill, yell my lungs out, yell some more and then climb down. A movie that changed the perception of millions all over the world and revolutionised the much despised Joker. A movie with Gary Oldman, Christian Bale, Heath Ledger, and Morgan Freeman all lead by the filming maestro Christopher Nolan had no chance to fail at the Box Office. And isn’t that what happened? Unfortunate happenstances occurred later as Heath Ledger departed, but he stays with us as Joker. Forever.

7. Avengers

Last but not at all the least, is the team of robot men, soldiers and a beast. The Avengers has retained its position even today as the most successful superhero movie and guess it shall remain to be so for quite a while. A one-of-a-kind movie back then that had multiple superheroes teaming up to fight an army of intergalactic weirdos got us all wide jawed and awestruck as we watched all our favourite characters fight shoulder-to-shoulder. And who can forget the scene where Hulk smashes the pulp out of Loki! This movie was just what every superhero fan ever wanted. Marvel just seems to be the modern day Genie.

Just as we said before that superheroes are fictional but it is the idea that there exists a superior force that can save us from our perils is an idea we all like to delve into. Some wish to be one while some wish to marry one. Some hate them, some pray to them. But the fact remains that heroes have concreted their spot in this decade and in the ones to come.

That just brings us to one realization and maybe that alone is enough.

That being, “Hope is not yet dead. Hope lives on.”
