MCU: Every Final Battle Ranked From Worst To Best

8. Spider-Man: Far From Home

Avengers Endgame Ending

If Homecoming's climax was rather small in scale, Far From Home dials things up a lot as Spider-Man faces off against Quentin Beck and his drone army.

Sure, it's not completely original, as we've seen the Avengers fight a drone army in Age of Ultron, and Mysterio is yet another guy who has qualms with the now-deceased Tony Stark (as we've seen in every Iron Man movie, Avengers: Age of Ultron and Spider-Man: Homecoming), but what it lacks in originality, it makes up for in exciting action and solid stakes.

The stakes actually feel high here because we know who Mysterio is and what he's capable of, which makes him a terrifying villain, even though we know he'll probably be defeated anyway (which he was).

There's some emotional weight to the conflict as well since Peter felt betrayed by Beck, which made his death(?) all the more personal to Peter. Of course, Beck did have one more trick up his sleeve against the wall-crawler.
