20 Most Critically Adored Comic Book Movies
2. Captain America: The First Avenger
Rating: 79%
The star spangled leader of the Avengers might not have seemed like a prime candidate for Hollywood success, but this movie launched the patriotic hero into newfound popularity with a younger generation.
Hugo Weaving’s Red Skull was frankly brilliant, and Tommy Lee Jones just about redeemed himself for the terrible Two-Face audiences had endured. The movie set up Avengers Assemble, and it was a great final solo film for Marvel's Phase One.
