Every Marvel film ranked by Rotten Tomatoes score

Eternals broke a new record for a Marvel Cinematic Universe film – though it might not be too pleased about it.

The superhero blockbuster, released on 5 November, currently holds the lowest rating on review aggregator site Rotten Tomatoes of any MCU entry.

Directed by Nomadland Oscar-winner Chloé Zhao, the film focuses on a group of god-like beings (played by actors including Angelina Jolie, Kit Harington, Kumail Nanjiani and Brian Tyree Henry) who protect the Earth from sinister forces.

While critics have mostly lambasted the film, with some branding it “insipid”, it’s worth noting that a good Rotten Tomatoes score is far from a definitive barometre of a film’s quality.

The system of banding reviews into “fresh” (positive) or “rotten” (negative), and tallying the numbers accordingly, has been described as reductive.

Unexceptional but widely crowd-pleasing films often score highly, with many brilliant but divisive films rating much lower.

With these caveats in mind, here’s a breakdown of every film in the MCU, ranked from lowest to highest by their Rotten Tomatoes score.
