MCU: Every Final Battle Ranked From Worst To Best

19. Black Panther

Avengers Endgame Ending
Marvel Studios

It feels harsh putting Black Panther so low on this list, because it's a very good movie. There are plenty of things to love about it, but the third act battle isn't one of them.

The big final battle in this one feels oddly forced, like it's only there out of some studio mandate.

A fight between just T'Challa and Killmonger would have sufficed, but there's an additional bombastic battle taking place that's devoid of any real stakes, and only there because this is a Marvel movie.

It wouldn't be too bad if the CGI were any good. But from what we see in the movie, like those war rhinos, you can assume the special effects budget ran out.

The fight between T'Challa and Killmonger, meanwhile, looks like something that would have blown your mind if it was in a PS2 game, but in a big-budget Hollywood film released in 2018? Nope.
