Seriously, Marvel created a universe in the SuperHero movie genre but recently they are literally unable to introduce a good story and CGI on their latest releases. It is something like after the death of Iron Man, Marvel is just dying – recent movies are just kind of waste of time. If you really love superhero movies then here I am listing 9 best superhero movies that will definitely make you entertained. No, none of these movies are from Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Project Power
Released On: 2020
Available On: Netflix
IMDB Rating: 6.0
The concept of this movie is really breathtaking. Everyone wants to be a superhero right? In this movie they introduced us to a pill that can generate superhuman ability in a normal person for just 5 minutes – people obviously use it as a drug and mostly performs more illegal activities than doing any superhero kind jobs. To tackle the increasing crime rate one police officer decides to find out the source of the drug and wants to understand the intentions of the drug lords. While investigating he finds strange things and really being shocked at how they actually produce the drug. So what does he do? What is the source of everything? Go check your self but seriously you can’t expect what will happen in the climax. Definitely worth a try if you really love superhero movies but the bad thing is character development is not that adorable however in terms of entertainment this movie is full of that.

IMDB Rating: 7.6, 6.5
So when I was a teenager I wanted to become a superhero and I think it is the dream of every teenager. The concept of the movie revolves around a few teenagers who in reality assumes that they are a superhero and acts like they are invincible. That triggers a chain of events that are not to be said in words. There is a twisting part in this movie which is the base and that triggers so many action sequences that I will definitely not reveal but as a fan of superhero movies, you should definitely check this film. This is not a family-friendly movie, with so much violence, and nudity so prefer not to watch it with family.

Lucy
Released on: 2014
Available On: Netflix
IMDB Rating: 6.4
In the lead role, Scarlett Johansson is in the film. The concept of the movie is not so unique but the type of execution definitely impresses you. When a human started using 100% of him/her brain. The character of Scarlett Johansson stucks in a drug deal and for some shake of the plot the drug started to react with her blood and slowly starts reacting with it. Which ultimately begins unlocking her brain. As the unlocking percentage increases she starts to unlock different powers – those are really cool. Although the story is pretty straightforward the action sequences are so much amazing. The fighting techniques are just amazing on a one-hand movement of Scarlett Johansson’s character she defeats a full army. Moreover, the movie is definitely worth watching if you’re finding a superhero movie.
