From left: Zoe Saldana, Karen Gillan, Chris Pratt, Dave Bautista, and Rocket (voiced by Bradley Cooper) in Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2.©Marvel Studios 2017  by [Eliza Berman](https://time.com/author/eliza-berman/)  ## Eliza Berman Berman is a senior editor at TIME. May 5, 2017 5:11 PM UTC Comic-book fans could argue ad nauseam about which superheroes would best the others — and indeed, they do (just have a [gander](https://www.reddit.com/r/whowouldwin/comments/2nau06/which%5Fsuperhero%5Fwould%5Fwin%5Fin%5Fa%5Fhunger%5Fgames%5Ffull/) at [these](https://www.reddit.com/r/whowouldwin/comments/28okms/what%5Fis%5Fa%5Flist%5Fsuperheroes%5Fthat%5Fcan%5Fdefeat/) [subreddits](https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/23kogw/reddit%5Fwho%5Fis%5Fthe%5Fmost%5Fpowerful%5Fsuperhero%5Fwho/)). But when it comes to the movies, determining the victors is a little more straightforward, if subjective. A look at the average [Rotten Tomatoes](https://www.rottentomatoes.com/) scores of movies depicting the most famous superhero teams — from the [Guardians of the Galaxy](http://time.com/4752663/guardians-of-the-galaxy-2-review/), whose second movie hits theaters May 5, to the _Incredibles_, whose second movie is due next year — offers a clear picture of which spandex-suited saviors have translated most successfully on film. The superhero team of the hour, the [Guardians](http://time.com/4754483/guardians-of-the-galaxy-vol-2/), ranks highly, though its jauntily-soundtracked adventures can’t quite eke out a first-place finish. Last year’s candy-colored [misfire](http://time.com/4577063/the-top-10-worst-movies/), _Suicide Squad_, pales in comparison when it comes to the critical consensus — though the bottom spot is reserved for a certain posse of Victorian-era vanquishers. The site’s gauge is, of course, just one way of measuring a movie’s worth. The critical panning of a handful of recent superhero movies has had fans angry that reviews deemed the films sub-par before audiences even had a chance to weigh in. More than 20,000 people signed a 2016 [Change.org petition](https://www.change.org/p/don-t-listen-to-film-criticism) imploring people not to “listen to film criticism” arguing that criticism is, after all, “just the opinions of the critics.” As we look ahead toward the coming years’ most highly anticipated superhero team ventures, from this November’s _Justice League_ to next spring’s _Avengers: Infinity War_, here is a ranking of movie superhero teams’ average [Rotten Tomatoes’ ratings](http://time.com/4670275/valentines-day-rotten-tomatoes-romance-movies/) — or in the case of single-movie squads, only ratings — from highest to lowest. ## The Incredibles _1 film, 97% fresh_ The beloved 2004 animated Pixar movie about a family of superheroes trying to blend in with their lawn-mowing, grocery-shopping suburban neighbors will get a very belated sequel in 2018. ## Guardians of the Galaxy _2 films, Average score: 87 % fresh_ Both of James Gunn’s takes on the Marvel crew have largely scored with critics, and — judging by the [five post-credits scenes](http://time.com/4754639/guardians-galaxy-2-post-credit-scenes) in the latest installment — there will be more of Star-Lord, Gamora, Drax and co. in our future. ## The Avengers _2 films, Average score: 84 % fresh_ Joss Whedon’s takes on the Marvel supergroup have been praised for their wit and [character development](https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/beyond-heroes-and-villains/201208/the-avengers-teach-psychology-class-assemble). Two sequels, to be directed by the [Russo brothers](http://time.com/4323027/captain-america-civil-war-post-credits-scene-black-panther/), are due in 2018 and 2019. ## The X-Men _6 films, Average score: 75% fresh_ The X-Men franchise (excluding Deadpool and Wolverine stand-alone films, as this data only includes movies focused around entire teams) has had its ups (_Days of Future Past_) and downs (_Apocalypse_). But it ranks, on the whole, near the top of the pack. ## The Power Rangers _1 film, 47% fresh_ They may not boast Marvel or DC bona fides, but this group of [teenage misfits](http://time.com/4710072/power-rangers-behind-the-scenes/) helped many a ’90s kid pass the afternoons away. Their recent big-screen outing, however, left many critics wanting. ## Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles _5 films, Average score: 31% fresh_ The heroes in a half shell have never, despite five attempts, bested 40% fresh on the review aggregator (and that was for their very first outing, in 1990). ## The Fantastic Four _4 films, Average score: 26% fresh_ Though they have collectively grossed hundreds of millions, excluding the unreleased 1994 film, none of the entries in this franchise has been a particular hit. But 2015’s reboot fared worst of all, winning several unwanted honors at the [Golden Raspberry Awards](https://time.com/4178709/razzies-2016-worst-movies-fifty-shades-of-grey/). ## The Suicide Squad _1 film, 25% fresh_ Fans were so upset by Rotten Tomatoes’ rotten score for [_Suicide Squad_](http://time.com/4430396/suicide-squad-review/)that more than 20,00 signed a [Change.org petition](http://time.com/4436621/suicide-squad-fans-rotten-tomatoes-petition/) to shut the site down (the language was later softened to try to send a message rather than actually shut down the site), stating, “we must get the people to know that the criticism \[is\] not the measure of the quality of movies.” ## The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen _1 film, 17% fresh_ Sean Connery’s final onscreen appearance, in 2003, was meant to be the first of several chapters about a group of turn-of-the-century heroes, but it fared too poorly to justify a sequel. But _League_ fans, take heart: In 2015, 20th Century Fox announced that a [reboot](http://variety.com/2015/film/news/league-of-extraordinary-gentlemen-movie-reboot-remake-fox-1201505537/) was in development.
