The Most Romantic Superhero Movies, Ranked
Romance is an important element of the superhero genre. Incredible superpowers aside, a hero in love on-screen is humanizing for the audience. It also adds weight to the film by raising the stakes for the hero both on and off the battlefield – a hero questioning their job out of fear of endangering a loved one, for example. Romance in superhero films has helped elevate the genre to be massive appealing blockbusters for everyone. Whether love prevails over the turbulence ahead depends on the movie in question. The sad truth is, much like a horror movie, not everyone makes it out alive in this genre.
