The movies of the Marvel Cinematic Universe [1] are epic in every sense of the word. They're sprawling stories with high stakes, complicated characters [2], and lots of emotional highs and lows [3]. In most cases, they're epic in length, too [4]: the majority of the Marvel superhero movies clock in at two hours or more, with the longest one to date [5] coming close to the three-hour mark. If you wanted to marathon all 20 Marvel films that have been released so far, you'd need to set aside a whopping 43 hours and four minutes!

So how does this shake down, movie by movie? Ahead, you can find a ranking of all the Marvel movies, from the shortest to the longest, before Captain Marvel [6] and Avengers: Endgame [7] join the ranks [8] later this year [9].
