So, this is my ranking of the whole Marvel Cinematic Universe. I've seen most of these movies 3+ times, but Captain Marvel and Endgame only once.

Captain America: The Winter Soldier
The Avengers: Endgame
Captain America: Civil War
The Avengers: Infinity War
The Avengers
Iron Man
Spider-Man: Homecoming
Guardians of the Galaxy

Black Panther

The Avengers: Age of Ultron

Thor: Ragnarok

Doctor Strange

Ant-Man and the Wasp

Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 2

Ant-Man

Captain America: The First Avenger

Captain Marvel

Thor

Iron Man 3

The Incredible Hulk

Iron Man 2

Thor: The Dark World

Those clump a lot in the middle, and the top 4 are all pretty close. Endgame might get the top spot upon further viewing, and Captain Marvel might move up too.

Bonus Fox's X-Men Universe ranking:

X2: X-Men United

Logan

X-Men: Days of Future Past

Deadpool

X-Men

X-Men: First Class

Deadpool 2

The Wolverine

X-Men: Apocalypse

X-Men: The Last Stand

X-Men Origins: Wolverine

Those titles are a bit much, since they don't really bother with numbers. It's impressive that they've managed to knit the various casts and timelines into a semi-coherent narrative (although you kinda have to ignore a lot of the Origins movie, particularly the parts about this Wade Wilson guy). Hopefully, Dark Phoenix is good, since as I said, I think that's the end of the road for this iteration. Fan theory: Bruce Banner and Tony Stark using the gauntlet caused a massive radiation spike across the world (they mention gamma radiation is involved, which is why Banner survives). This activates many X-genes, and suddenly mutants everywhere. I'm not sure they could get away with that, honestly, but there are a lot of people who don't want to let the current MCU go away, but want their mutants too.
