5. Doctor Strange
Box Office: $654.0 million (#10)
Marvel Studios introduced magic to the MCU with impressive aplomb in this visually gorgeous, trippy fantasy flick driven forward by Benedict Cumerbatch's terrific lead performance, aided by strong support from Tilda Swinton, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Benedict Wong and Mads Mikkelsen.
It's too similar to Iron Man for some tastes and Marvel still aren't 100% there when it comes to their villains, but the imaginative action sequences help Doctor Strange stand tall and far away from just about everything else in the MCU.
Skirting past a lot of Marvel's more formulaic cinematic issues (there's no forced love interest this time!), Strange is one of the MCU's sturdiest solo ventures yet.
