Every MCU Movie & TV Show Ranked Worst To Best

25. What If? (2021)

Offering audiences an intriguing look into the world the MCU has so brilliantly built up, What If? explores the various what-could-have-been twists of the franchise, including a world in which Agent Carter became Captain America, and another where Hank Pym inadvertently starts a zombie apocalypse.

Aided by its visually gorgeous animation, the show's a wonderful feat of imagination, but is let-down by its choppy storytelling and unfocussed narrative. The various scenarios fail to come together tonally, and some of the bigger twists end with a whimper despite their potential.

Granted, it's great to see so many stars returning to their iconic roles (particularly the late Chadwick Boseman), and the various plotlines do eventually bring themselves together in a relatively satisfying way, but it would have been nice to see a more consistent tone and story take shape.
