If superheroes saving the world from VFX-heavy bad guys has you feeling numb, you’re not the only one. While superhero movies are easily the most popular movie genre of the 21st century, constant domination has made more than a few people feeling fatigued. But might there be a few transgressive superhero movies that can entertain even the most hardcore cynics? Turns out, yes, there are quite a few.
Superhero movies have been around since the beginning of cinema, with scholars naming Mandrake the Magician from 1939 and The Shadow from 1940 as being the first true superhero movies. Eventually the biggest comic book superheroes like Captain Marvel, Superman, and Batman all enjoyed prominence as film serial icons.
With decades of endless superhero movies, surely many are feeling just a little tired. But if you’re truly an anti-superhero movie person, or looking for something fresh in a stale genre, seek out these 35 movies to change your mind.

29. The Batman (2022)

No one needs an introduction to Batman. But for anyone allergic to the deafening noise of big-budget productions, Matt Reeves' singular take on the Batman legend is one hell of an antidote. Set in its own universe, The Batman stars Robert Pattinson as a Batman still early in his crime-fighting career as he tracks down an elusive serial killer calling himself The Riddler (Paul Dano). Though still a major Hollywood production, Reeves' crime noir-inspired interpretation casts a different shade over the Caped Crusader, drenching him in acid rain and surrounding him with shadowy city dwellers. Sure, The Batman is still a “dark Batman movie,” of which there’s no shortage of. But that doesn’t stop The Batman from feeling like one of a kind.
28. The Guyver (1991) and Guyver: Dark Hero (1994)
(Image credit: New Line Cinema)
While Guyver is an established sci-fi franchise in Japan with various manga and anime adaptations, two low-budget Hollywood movies took the Japanese superhero into the American underground. In 1991, special effects wizards Steve Wang and Screaming Mad George collaborated as directors on The Guyver, with Jack Armstrong playing a California martial artist who comes in contact with an alien device that turns him into a superhero. Mark Hamill appears in a supporting role of a CIA agent, though the movie’s misleading poster made it seem like Hamill morphs into The Guyver. The sequel Guyver: Dark Hero released in 1994, being a more action-oriented installment with less comedic gags; Metal Gear Solid’s David Hayter replaces Armstrong in the lead role. Both films are strong introductions to the tokusatsu genre, which were briefly in vogue in the early 1990s amid the success of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.

26. Upgrade (2018)

In the same year thatSonyand Marvel’s Venom grossed a monstrous $850 million worldwide, director Leigh Whannell delivered a more vicious version of a similar story. In Upgrade, Logan Marshall-Green plays a paralyzed mechanic named Grey. While mourning the senseless murder of his beautiful wife (Melanie Vallejo), Grey is injected with a cutting-edge A.I. implant that not only helps him regain motor functions, but turns him into a lethal killing machine. While Grey embarks on a road to avenge his wife, the implant slowly reveals its own agenda. Taut and thrilling, Upgrade is the anti-superhero movie Venom wishes it could be.
25. Black Mask (1996)
(Image credit: Artisan Entertainment)
Bruce Lee’s first big break in Hollywood was portraying the masked martial artist Kato, sidekick to Van Williams in the pulp TV series The Green Hornet in 1966. Lee’s legacy influenced many around the world, including Chinese comics artist Li Chi Tak. In 1992, Tak released his superhero comic Black Mask, about a masked vigilante with a striking resemblance to Kato. In 1996, action star Jet Li kicked his career into high gear starring in a film adaptation of Black Mask, where Li plays a quiet librarian with a secret identity as a top secret super soldier. Black Mask is a blast, if only for its attractive showcase of Jet Li in his physical prime.

22. Shin Ultraman (2022) and Shin Kamen Rider (2023)
(Image credit: Toei)
In contrast to other cinematic universes so reliant on legally enabled connectivity across projects, the “Shin Japan Heroes Universe” is a triumvirate between Japanese studio giants Toho, Toei, and Tsuburaya. Together, the three stand behind famed animation director Hideaki Anno, who since 2016 has put his stamp on the studios' most iconic properties starting with Shin Godzilla. In 2022, Hideaki Anno - in collaboration with filmmaker Shinji Higuchi - released Shin Ultraman, his own interpretation of Tsuburaya’s iconic monster fighter. He did it again in 2023 with Toei’s motorcycle-riding cyborg Kamen Rider. Both pictures breathe new life to vintage tokusatsu, sporting singular authorship that bigger budget rivals lack the courage to afford.
21. The Incredibles (2004)

20. Darkman (1990)
(Image credit: Universal Pictures)
What do you get when you mix Sam Raimi, superhero movies, and Raimi’s affections for the Universal Monsters? Enter: Darkman. Starring Liam Neeson in the title role, Darkman tells of a scientist named Dr. Westlake who is left for dead, only to be healed back to life with new superpowers. Now seeking to repair his life, including his relationship to his girlfriend Julie (Frances McDormand), Westlake dons the identity of “Darkman” to exact vengeance against those who ruined his life. Predating Raimi’s own Spider-Man film series, Darkman sees the splatter auteur draw from other movies like The Elephant Man and The Shadow to bring his own original hero to the big screen, with all the usual Raimi pizazz his fans expect.

17. Saban’s Power Rangers (2017)
(Image credit: Lionsgate)
Although it didn’t mighty morph the box office, the PG-13 oriented reboot Power Rangers from 2017 has aged rather well as an anti-nostalgic take on the ‘90s TV hit. With a charismatic cast all playing moody teenagers who might otherwise wallow in their ennui if not for the call of destiny, Power Rangers surpasses low expectations to be more than a post-Twilight YA franchise non-starter. If nothing else, you can’t take your eyes off Elizabeth Banks going absolutely gonzo as Rita Repulsa. If only we could see that sequel with, according to rumors, a female Green Ranger.
16. Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018)

15. The Green Hornet (2011)
(Image credit: Sony Pictures Releasing)
Before Sony had Spider-Man’s benchwarmer villains to make movies out of, the studio tried striking out with, well, other superhero IP. In 2011, it had the opportunity to reintroduce the pulp radio character The Green Hornet to a 21st century public. With Seth Rogen in the lead role and Taiwanese pop sensation Jay Chou - as sidekick Kato, a role Bruce Lee made famous - there were clearly high hopes for a franchise. (Did we mention acclaimed filmmaker Michel Gondry was behind the wheel?) Sadly The Green Hornet didn’t sting and bombed in its dumpy winter 2011 opening. But in hindsight, its freewheeling humor compliments its efforts to subvert superhero movie clichés. The Green Hornet has aged well, unlike most other Green Hornet media from the 1940s.
14. Split (2017)
(Image credit: Universal Pictures)
Billed as a disturbing horror movie with a chameleonic James McAvoy as a man suffering from multiple personality disorder - and opposite him Anya Taylor-Joy, riding buzz from her debut in The Witch two years earlier - Split stunned, if not confused moviegoers with a cameo from Bruce Willis at the end. Why? Because 17 years after his acclaimed film Unbreakable, a cerebral thriller that thematically evoked superhero lore, Split revealed itself to be a surprise sequel set in the same universe. Though the climax of Glass in 2019 shattered hopes for a satisfying climax, Split snuck its way into the conversation of superhero movies forever, not to mention being a quality thriller in its own right.
13. The Suicide Squad (2021)

12. X2: X-Men United (2003)
(Image credit: 20th Century Studios)
Alongside the Wesley Snipes-led Blade, X-Men from director Bryan Singer ushered in the modern superhero movie boom. (That movie also introduced Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, easily one of the most effective casting decisions in Hollywood history.) Three years after X-Men’s theatrical release in 2000, Singer’s sequel X2: X-Men United upped the ante, with a politically charged action tentpole in which Brian Cox - nearly 20 years before starring in HBO’s Succession - plays a military colonel with plans to rid the world, but primarily America, of mutants for good. Overall faster-paced and more exciting than its predecessor without sacrificing quality, X2: X-Men United is truly the best of mutantkind.

Just as the Marvel Cinematic Universe was properly taking off, the short-lived Marvel Knights existed as a production arm under Marvel Studios to adapt Marvel’s darker, lesser known characters to the screen. Four years after Jonathan Hensleigh’s The Punisher, filmmaker Lexi Alexander - truly the first woman to direct a Marvel movie - was given the reins over her stand-alone reboot/sequel, Punisher: War Zone. Taking even more inspiration from the Punisher comics, Punisher: War Zone is a disarmingly gorgeous midnight action movie with chiaroscuro contrast lighting and an imposing Ray Stevenson in the role of Frank Castle. Punisher: War Zone doesn’t posture to be more than what it is. Instead, it doubles down on exactly what you think a Punisher movie to look and feel like, and the result is nothing short of extraordinary.
4. Spider-Man (2002)
(Image credit: Columbia Pictures)
Superhero movies ruled cinema screens in the 2000s for a reason, and that’s because of Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man. In an early era when even the X-Men were averse to colorful costumes, Raimi dressed up New York’s resident web-slinger in a faithful recreation of his classic look, all in an exciting story about the trials and tribulations of swinging into adulthood. Tobey Maguire dons the mask of Spider-Man in his origin story, who battles his nemesis Green Goblin (an impenetrable Willem Dafoe) while trying to save the girl of his dreams (Kirsten Dunst). After Spider-Man blew up the summer box office in 2002, the world was never the same.

2. Superman: The Movie (1978)

All superheroes trace their origins back to Superman, whose comic book debut in 1938, hoisting a car on the cover of Action Comics #1, birthed the modern superhero we know today. Decades later, amid national crises like Vietnam and Watergate, Richard Donner made the world believe a man could fly with Superman: The Movie. Although the film is indeed the ur-text for the modern superhero blockbuster, Superman still holds up like unbendable steel as a romantic and idealistic vision of superheroes in our “real” world. They’re not always arbiters of destruction, but living examples of truth, justice, and a better tomorrow.
1. Logan (2017)
(Image credit: 20th Century Studios)
When you think about it, Logan is a miracle. Under the dominance of billion-dollar Marvel movies, James Mangold helmed his second Wolverine movie (after 2013’s The Wolverine) and delivered a stone cold neo-Western classic. In one of his most dimensional performances of his career, Hugh Jackman fleshes out Wolverine one last time (or so we thought) in a future setting where the X-Men are no more. Floundering about with weakened powers, Wolverine is called to action to protect a young girl who is, genetically speaking, his “daughter” (Dafne Keen) from the clutches of a ruthless corporation. Although superhero movies kept going after Logan, Mangold’s movie first challenged audiences to remember that for superhero stories to mean something, at some point, they have to end.
