Superhero movies are a great way to spend your time! Some superhero franchises like Superman and Spiderman have been around for decades. But there are more recent characters that younger audiences may not be so familiar with, not recollecting the comic books. If these heroes are somewhat new to you, then this list of Netflix streaming is worth checking out.
This is a supervillain tale because the characters are all superheroes in prison for having committed crimes. Amanda Walters, an intelligence officer, assembles the most dangerous prisoners for black ops missions that mere humans cannot undertake. The exceptional cast includes: Will Smith, Jared Leto, Margot Robbie and Viola Davis.
Shazam is the most amusing superhero movie in the DC universe. It’s about a boy who receives superpowers after being granted them by a powerful wizard and how his life changes because of them. His main objective, though, is to find his mother. The cast includes Zachary Levi, Mark Strong, Jack Dylan Grazer Faithe Herman.

However, he is sucked into the events that unravel in the film. Until he finally takes his rightful place in the end. The cast includes Jason Momoa, Nicole Kidman, Willem Dafoe, Dolph Lundgren.
Watchmen is another movie from DC and arguably one of the best superhero movies to date. It has an excellent neo-noir vibe, with the classic duality: good versus evil storyline.

The cast includes Jakie Earle Haley, Billy Crudup and Matthew Goode.
