50 Best Movies Based on Comics or Graphic Novels

Rotten Tomatoes presents to you Comics & Graphic Novels vs. the Critics, an exhaustive 50-film countdown that includes movies based on everything from superheroes to graphic novels, from manga to strips from the funny pages -- in order of critical approval.
Every movie here originates from a comic book source of some kind, not another medium (we know about the Alien vs. Predator graphic novels, but the movies aren't based on the comics). Only movies with 20 or more reviews are included (sorry, Fritz the Cat), and we use a weighted formula that takes release year and number of reviews into account. We also omitted all TV or straight-to-DVD flicks.
