Live-Action DC Film Ranking

One of my all-time favourite movies, filled with great action set-pieces, heavy themes, memorable dialogue and an outstanding performance from the late Heath Ledger. He is definitely among my top favourite Joker actors next to Mark Hamill. Christian Bale's bat-growl is left to be desired, yet I love to imitate it from time to time.

Probably the best Batman-centric movie, though a pretty long one. Robert Pattinson is my second favourite live-action Batman, and the rest of the cast are amazing too, especially Paul Dano as the Riddler. The third act does bring it down a little bit as the Riddler suddenly became more of an extremist towards Gotham. It is taken from the comics but it could have been saved for the sequel.

Christopher Reeve will always be my Superman as he made me believe a man can fly. I also love his onscreen chemistry with Margot Kidder. The rest of the cast is perfect for this era of Superman. The climactic time travel scene is admittedly problematic, but overall a classic superhero tale.

One of my childhood favourite movies, this is a worthy successor to the iconic original. Though that amnesia kiss at the end is very weird.

Leagues better than the 2016 movie, James Gunn totally saved this anti-hero team with his dark sense of humour, unique visual style, awesome action and emotional payoffs.

Ares could have been better villain if he was either recast or saved for the sequel. Meanwhile, you got Doctor Poison and General Ludendorff who are rather cartoonish for this movie. Despite the villains and the noticeably forced climax, this is still one of my top-rated DCEU films as I dug the themes, action, atmosphere and performances.

This could have been a miniseries and didn't need to be crammed into a four-hour movie. However I'm still thankful for Zack Snyder to have completed his vision for the Justice League. I definitely choose it over the theatrical cut. Though it's pretty hard to talk about these movies without thinking about the controversies surrounding Amber Heard and Ezra Miller.

With all due respect, I would have liked to have seen Tim Burton direct this one. I also would have liked to have seen Joel Schumacher's extended version. With that said, this is actually a fun watch to return to. Jim Carrey never ceases to entertain me with his manic deliveries. The same can't really be said about Tommy Lee Jones as Two-Face.

Pedro Pascal is great as Max Lord and Kristen Wiig does a stellar job as Barbara Minerva, but the story is such a mess. Don't get me started on Steve Trevor's body swap. Overall I consider this movie to be so bad it's good.

This was a guilty pleasure for me as a kid. I did like Christopher Reeve's darker take on Superman and his fight with his good self, while campy, was very entertaining. The villains, slapstick and overall story are what bring this movie down on my ranking.

This was one of the movies that introduced me to Batman and a very embarassing one at that. 'Nuff said.
