Ultron might be the messiest movie on this list. It was Joss Whedon’s last go in the MCU after handling 2012’s The Avengers, and it did some things really well—the party scene!—and other things just sort of don’t fit right. James Spader is outstanding as Ultron, and WandaVision did a lot of nice backtracking work to make the introductions of Wanda Maximoff, Vision, and Pietro Maximoff more interesting after seeing that first Disney+ series. Also an oddly good Hawkeye movie? His mid-Sokovia battle speech to Wanda is a classic.

MCU understanding needed? Honestly? None. If you feel like watching this without seeing any other MCU movie beforehand, you’ll get the idea. Maybe Captain America: The Winter Soldier, but not even really.
