Comic book movies are prevalent these days, with half of the top films based on iconic comic book characters. Comic book movies dominate the chart of the highest-grossing films.
And rightfully, comic-related media has provided us with some of the best films of the last few decades, ranging from family comedies to adult comedies and artistic tragedies. So here’s a rundown of some of the best comic book movie adaptations of all time.
5 of the best film adaptations of comic books
1) Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy
With the first Guardians of the Galaxy film, James Gunn imported his B-movie sensibilities from the Troma films and injected new life into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Gunn combines his comedic flair with a genuinely emotional story about broken people finding a new family. What other film could make you cry for a raccoon and his talking tree companion?
2) The Amazing Spider-Man: Into the Spiderverse
In terms of feeling like you’re flicking through an actual comic book on the big screen, Into the Spiderverse is perhaps the best comic adaptation. Into the Spidrverse is as flawless as movies: gorgeous animation, amusing humor, incredible combat scenes, a great soundtrack, loving characters, and a genuinely uplifting plot.
3) Logan
Hugh Jackman’s final performance as the famous X-Men character was the best film in the franchise’s history. Logan is a western film about feelings and their sadness than superpowers and action sequences.
Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart offer their best performances in the film, culminating in a dark and heartbreaking but ultimately beautiful climax.
4) Batman: The Dark Knight
The Dark Knight, published before the comic book movie craze, is nonetheless a classic.
Christopher Nolan created a masterpiece that future generations will revere. Heath Ledger’s portrayal of The Joker is famous, and The Dark Knight represents a cultural watershed.
5) The superhero Batman
The Dark Knight remains an indisputable masterpiece, but in terms of interpretations of the source material, The Batman is a far superior depiction of the Caped Crusader from the comics. Matt Reeves’ The Batman is a big-screen adaptation of a comic novel.
Robert Pattinson plays the most vulnerable version of the iconic character. In this film, we finally see Batman as the world’s finest detective rather than just a crime-fighting ninja.
The Batman is a visually stunning noir thriller, making it the perfect adaption.
