There has been the occasional mishap, with the likes of Daredevil, Elektra, Fantastic Four, Spider-Man 3 and Ang Lee's Hulk not quite being up to standard when compared to the likes of Iron Man, Spider-Man 2, X-Men, Captain America: The Winter Soldier and Guardians of the Galaxy but, in general, they're top notch pieces of entertainment.
