The Avengers movies have some of the best fight scenes in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but a few of them rise a step above the rest. Superhero movies will always have action as one of their most important parts. That stands true for pretty much every kind of superhero story across different mediums. Among all the movies in the MCU, the very best of them have exhilarating action sequences between heroes and villains or even heroes against themselves.
The MCU’s Avengers franchise is, without a doubt, the biggest Marvel Studios has. It is the heart of the larger MCU, as the Avengers films bring Earth’s Mightiest Heroes together. That junction of heroes allows them to be some of the most ambitious in terms of scope and action. That is why there is so much anticipation for the MCU’s slate of projects, which features Avengers: Doomsday & Secret Wars. Here are the 10 best Avengers movie fight scenes, which those two entries should look at for inspiration:

Thor Vs The Hulk
The Avengers (2012)
The first entry on the list is a fight between two heroes. Thor and the Hulk are two of the strongest characters who have been members of the Avengers so far. In 2012’s The Avengers, when the team first came together, they were easily the most powerful.

That is why a confrontation between the two had to happen. It helped show fans what the MCU could do by putting such unique heroes together. The element that connected the two was Tom Hiddleston’s Loki. The villain orchestrated the Hulk’s rampage to escape SHIELD’s helicarrier.

The fight sequence that followed was one of The Avengers‘ many moments that could have paid the price of admission alone. Thor and the Hulk alternated moments in the lead, though no hero was the fight’s clear winner. They would have a fun rivalry in Avengers: Age of Ultron after the film.
9
The Hulk vs Thanos
Avengers: Infinity War (2018)
Close
Avengers: Infinity War is the biggest film the MCU has had up until now when it comes to action. While Avengers: Doomsday & Secret Wars could surpass it, the bar has been raised high. The film starts with a shocking sequence that spotlights Thanos’ resolve.
The Mad Titan makes easy work of Mark Ruffalo’s Hulk. It allows Marvel to show fans just how much of a threat Thanos is, as he is clearly toying with the Hulk, not even needing the help of any Infinity Stones to win the fight.
Thanos’ fight with the Hulk opened Avengers: Infinity War on a somber note. It allowed the MCU movie to set the scene by making what is held by many as the strongest Avenger lose in a clear way. The fight’s impact also elevates its status, as the Hulk hides for the rest of the film.
8
Scarlet Witch & Quicksilver vs The Avengers
Avengers: Age Of Ultron (2015)
Close
Avengers: Age of Ultron presented multiple villains for the team to take on. Before they were turned to the side of good, Elizabeth Olsen’s Scarlet Witch and Aaron Taylor-Johnson’s Quicksilver were working for James Spader’s Ultron. That led to the powerful twins taking on the Avengers.
While Ultron and his forces are also present in the fight sequence, it is focused on highlighting how the Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver’s powers fare against the Avengers. The speedster gets a few good hits in by moving so fast time seems to slow down around him.
As for Wanda Maximoff, she gets to mess with the minds of a few heroes throughout the fight. It serves as the first major showcase of the Scarlet Witch’s reality-bending/mind-controlling powers. It is always great to see heroes fight before teaming up, and the warehouse fight showcased both Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver’s powers nicely.
7
Hulk vs The Hulkbuster
Avengers: Age Of Ultron (2015)
Close
Avengers: Age of Ultron has its faults. After all, there is a good reason why it ranks last among the MCU’s Avengers movies on many metrics. However, the film does feature quite a few exciting action scenes, especially where hero vs hero fights are concerned.
The armor allows Iron Man to match the Hulk’s raw strength, which then opens the door for Stark’s genius intellect to help him win the fight.
The biggest such case came from Iron Man’s contingency plan for the Hulk. Bruce Banner helped Tony Stark create the Hulkbuster, giving the Avengers a way to stop him from going on a rampage. That was tested when the Scarlet Witch mind-controlled the Hulk.
The Hulkbuster vs Hulk fight is action-packed and creative. The armor allows Iron Man to match the Hulk’s raw strength, which then opens the door for Stark’s genius intellect to help him win the fight. Taking place in the middle of Johannesburg, South Africa, Iron Man has to get creative, and he beats the Hulk.

The HYDRA Raid
Avengers: Age Of Ultron (2015)
Close
The Avengers has one of the MCU’s most iconic shots, which is the one where the camera goes in a circle around the team. As the follow-up to the first Avengers movie, Age of Ultron had to find a way to have a similar moment.
James Spader will return to voice Ultron in 2026’s Vision series.

That comes during the raid on the last HYDRA base early in the film. It is one of the most exciting team-up moments in the Avengers movies, with the heroes coming together as they jump forward to take on enemies and the frame freezing.
The sequence is hard-hitting, showing how the Avengers have become better at working together since they first teamed up. Their attacks are more coordinated, and they each know what their individual role is. Captain America, Hawkeye, and Iron Man get moments to shine as they plow through villains.
5
The Battle Of Sokovia
Avengers: Age Of Ultron (2015)
Close
While there have been complaints in recent years about the MCU’s practice of major final battles full of CGI, they can still be epic. That was the case in Avengers: Age of Ultron. The movie slowly built to a crescendo that included Ultron raising and dropping Sokovia from the sky.
The Battle of Sokovia saw the Scarlet Witch become an Avenger. It also had a deeply emotional moment, as Quicksilver became a hero and died saving Hawkeye. The Avengers banded together to fight Ultron and his bots as Sokovia’s capital was lifted more and more into the air.

The final fight of the second Avengers movie had a lot going on at once. Despite the chaos, the MCU’s heroes got to showcase their powers in team moments and individual scenes. Sokovia’s destruction also became crucial for the future of the MCU.

The Battle On Titan
Avengers: Infinity War (2018)
Close
Avengers: Infinity War presented non-stop action. The MCU movie had interesting story beats, but they seemed to be stuck together to make sure that extremely exciting action sequences made sense onscreen. The film had two impressive final fights scattered across two different locations.

The Battle on Titan had a few key moments. Spider-Man repeatedly hitting Thanos with magic was fun, and both Iron Man and Doctor Strange’s one-on-one fights with Thanos showed how they could stand their ground. Finally, when the heroes turned to dust, Spider-Man’s death was the movie’s most emotional.

The Battle Of Wakanda
Avengers: Infinity War (2018)
Close
The other main final battle in Avengers: Infinity War took place in Wakanda. While Robert Downey Jr.’s Iron Man led the team of heroes on Titan, Chris Evans’ Captain America rejoined the team to lead it against Thanos and his troops as they invaded the secluded country.
There are many epic moments in the Battle of Wakanda. Thor’s entrance is easily one of his best scenes in the MCU, and it allows the hero to show just how overpowered he is. Fun interactions, like that between Captain America and Groot, also helped add some levity to the fight.
Finally, Thanos won the battle, leading to the most shocking ending in the MCU. Audiences had to watch as their favorite heroes turned to dust when Thor failed to “go for the head” and kill him. Earlier, Vision’s death — twice — had already made the battle tragic, which only worsened.

The Battle Of New York
The Avengers (2012)
Close
The Avengers completely changed the MCU and movie franchises forever. It showed the world that shared movie universes could be successful, and many franchises tried to copy it. One of the key parts of the film that made the whole thing sing was the final fight.
It is no surprise that Avengers: Endgame would use time travel to further explore the Battle of New York, as it became one of the MCU’s most iconic battles. It was the first time that the Avengers truly acted like a team, as they were fueled by Agent Coulson’s death.
Impressive moments include the Hulk’s transformation, Captain America ordering the police around, Hawkeye and Black Widow taking out the Chitauri troops in the air, and Iron Man’s near-sacrifice. The Avengers ended with an epic final battle that set the tone for the franchise. It could not have been better.

The Final Battle Against Thanos
Avengers: Endgame (2019)
Close
Avengers: Endgame‘s final battle set the bar absurdly high for the MCU. The sequence felt like a series of comic book splash pages pierced together. Pretty much every possible hero in the franchise was pulled into the fight, with many getting at least a moment to shine.
There were many exciting parts to the event. The start, with Thor, Iron Man, and a Mjolnir-wielding Captain America fighting Thanos individually, was like a jolt of electricity. From there, the film never let off until the Mad Titan and his army were turned into dust.

Iron Man’s sacrifice made the battle incredibly emotional. Avengers: Doomsday and Secret Wars will have the multiverse to pull from, and with the X-Men, the Fantastic Four, and more, they have a chance at topping the list. However, for the time being, Avengers: Endgame‘s final battle is the best fight sequence of the MCU’s Avengers movies.
