From the Collider article "The 25 Best Movie Heroes of All Time, Ranked" by Jeremy Urquhart, May 19, 2024:

They're prominent characters within the films they're featured in – usually the protagonists – and, even though some have their flaws, all show great bravery, go through interesting character arcs, or stand up against terrifying villains. Sometimes, they do all of the above, and are ranked below, from great to greatest."
