Fifteen films and one TV show make up this connected DC universe, which ran from Man of Steel (2013) into 2023, and the ratings chart its whiplash: lows like Suicide Squad (5.9) and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (6.0), respectable middles like Wonder Woman (7.2) and Aquaman (6.9), and one late high in The Suicide Squad (2021, 7.5). The franchise's best-rated entry is not a movie at all: it is Peacemaker (2022, 8.2), the TV continuation of that story.
Skip straight to the good stuff: Wonder Woman for the universe's most confident film, The Suicide Squad for its sharpest, and Peacemaker for its peak. Completists can begin at Man of Steel (6.7) and go in order, but this is a franchise that rewards cherry-picking more than devotion.
The DC Extended Universe franchise spans 1 series, 15 movies in the CrossBinge catalog.
