Exceptional Films That Even Non-Superhero Fans Will Love Watching
In today's film industry landscape, superheroes reign supreme. From Marvel to DC, superhero movies have become an event, drawing audiences in droves to theaters on opening weekends. Phrases like 'superhero fatigue' are circulating, and not everyone, including prominent directors like Martin Scorsese, is a fan of this genre. Fortunately, there are several superhero films that defy conventions and are sure to satisfy even the most critical viewers.
10- Kick-Ass (2010)
IMDb: 7.6
Summary: Director Matthew Vaughn mocks the comic book genre with Kick-Ass, which raises the violence and profanity levels of superheroes. Aaron Taylor-Johnson portrays Dave, a comic book enthusiast who becomes a superhero named Kick-Ass despite having no powers or abilities. The fast-paced, humorous, often gross, and occasionally heartwarming film cleverly returns to comic book films with Chloë Grace Moretz stealing the scene as Hit Girl.

Director: Matthew Vaughn
9- RoboCop (1987)
IMDb: 7.6
Summary: The science fiction classic RoboCop is one of the most unique films of the 80s and works perfectly against the superhero formula. Set in a dystopian city rampant with crime, the film follows police officer Alex Murphy, who is killed in action. However, he returns as RoboCop and sets out to find and eliminate those who attacked him. RoboCop is filled with humanity and struggles with staying true to his principles amidst corrupt superiors, making it particularly realistic in terms of characters.

8- Watchmen (2009)
IMDb: 7.6
Summary: Zack Snyder is known for bringing Justice League to the DCEU, but his first collaboration with the studio was the neo-noir film Watchmen. In the film, outlaw Rorschach discovers a dark secret while investigating a colleague's murder. Watchmen focuses more on plot and characters to create a dark and grim story rather than just spectacle. This film, with graphic violence, sex, and language, is not your typical Batman or Superman movie.

IMDb: 8.0
Summary: In Deadpool, Ryan Reynolds plays Wade Wilson, who survives cancer after an experiment but is left disfigured and immortal.

Director: Tim Miller
5- Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)
IMDb: 8.0

The galactic adventure follows Star-Lord, Gamora, Drax, Rocket, and Groot, a group of space criminals who come together to protect the galaxy from the evil Ronan the Accuser.
