2013 is almost over, and that means that all of the super hero movies have been released. We got 5 of those this year and I enjoyed all of them. What I'm going to do is to rank them all.
5. Kick-Ass 2: My least favorite super hero movie of the year was Kick-Ass 2. I really enjoyed this one, but not to the same degree as the first one. Some of the action scenes went the shaky cam route, and the jokes weren't quite as funny. There was no scene in which I went "That was better here than in the first". It is still a really fun movie though.
4. The Wolverine: The Wolverine is a really different super hero movie. It wasn't a huge effects filled blockbuster. Instead it was more of a character study. You get to know more of the character of Wolverine and how he actually feels about being who he is, and I liked that the film went this route because it actually works. This movie would have been a bit higher on the list, but the finale doesn't fit the tone set by the movie. The finale was your usual big super hero battle, and while it was enjoyable it just felt extremely out of place.
3. Thor: The Dark World: The last one to come out this year was the new Thor movie. The action scenes were awesome, it was really funny (except for Kat Dennings), and it advanced the Marvel Cinematic Universe. My problem was the villain. He was uninteresting and you never felt that Thor was in any danger against this guy. That is really the only problem I have with the movie though.
2. Iron Man 3: Yeah I know a lot of people have a lot of problems with the big twist in this movie, but I actually rolled with it and ended up loving every single second of this movie. It was funny as hell, the action sequences were terrific, and seeing 42 armors at the same time is really awesome. I also loved that Tony is basically having to start from scratch in this movie and has tu use his intellect to get out of situations without his armor. I would have liked if the film did advance the Marvel Cinematic Universe in some way or another, but this was really more of a stand alone movie.
1. Man Of Steel: I LOVED THIS MOVIE. What I wanted out of this movie was to finally see Superman kicking ass, and man did I get that. The final fight in this movie was simply amazing and unbelievable. A lot of people say this movie had no character development, but I really don't mind that. We are getting sequels and there's going to be more time for character development there. This movie was made to show the world that Superman is a really kick ass character, and it delivered. There are some moments in this film that fans hated because they felt out of character, but I loved this scenes because they work for the type of story they are trying to tell and they didn't feel forced at all. Man Of Steel is my favorite super hero movie of 2013.
