    I own this 4k disc myself. But I've been a fan of this film since 1992 on VHS. "Unforgiven" is the BEST modern Western I've ever seen. 10/10.

    Clint Eastwood - 'The Outlaw Josey Wales' is another great movie by Clint Eastwood. Not sure if it is on 4k yet, but you should watch it anyway.

      I wish 🤞 The Outlaw Josey Wales has yet to be released by Warner Bros on 4K.

    Unforgiven is a fantastic western that gains more weight if you've seen most of Clints previous westerns.......it's a fantastic close to his career in The Old West.

    This movie is really good storytelling at its finest. Everything leads up to that chilling finale in the saloon. When Clint shows up with that shotgun at the end, oh man it's epic and you know he's not screwing around

  • @movieking8847

    @interdimensionalsteve8172 2 года назад +1

    This and 3:10 to Yuma are my two favourite modern westerns. So frickin' brilliant. Pale Rider is also an absolute classic for Eastwood, and could almost be called a prequel to Unforgiven.

    Well done review. I haven’t seen this movie in years but one scene that always stuck with me was after the kid shot one of the guys. His first one ever and despite all his tough talk just can’t come to grips with what he did. Clint tells him “It's a hell of a thing, killing a man. You take away all he's got and all he's ever gonna have.” Powerful stuff.

    • @midlevelmedia
      @midlevelmedia  2 года назад +1

      I loved that part of the film and just the way they treated death and killing throughout. You really felt the weight of it all and that line is definitely powerful.

    Hey Ken, Glad to see you explore outside your usual, we all need to do that, there are so many great movies out there to see instead of restricting ourselves to certain time period or genre. I'm digging your Western month. Gene Hackman is a great actor and is one of my favorites too. 👍👍

    1st time I saw Unforgiven was at the theatre that I worked at. My friend n I got there early so we watched Army of Darkness then saw Unforgiven. Man that was an awesome double feature. Lol. Unforgiving is the perfect western movie, but Pale Rider is another good one by Clint Eastwood. U really can’t go wrong with Eastwood in a western movie. Lol.

    Hey your videos are getting better and better! Would you consider making a rating system for movies so we know how ‘much’ you liked it? It can have different types of metrics like audio, visuals, story, etc. or just an overall film score but you cover so much media you should consider it! Keep on pushing man we appreciate it!

    • @midlevelmedia
      @midlevelmedia  2 года назад +1

      Thanks man. I used to do a scoring system, but I find people get too hung up on the numbers. I just like talking about the release and whether or not I like it. May bring it back though at some point.

  • @MAFion
    @MAFion 2 года назад

    That cracking great screenplay by David Webb Peoples was written at least a decade before the film was made. Eastwood bought it and waited a decade so he could age into the role. It was a passion project for everyone involved. And I don't think Eastwood ever did another true western after. It was his swan song to his participation in the genre.

  • @jasona5283
    @jasona5283 2 года назад

    I have never watched this movie all the way through only parts of it I need to watch it. Have you seen Young Guns 1 & 2 those are my two favorite Western movies. Also I watch on H&I tv every day Westerns they have a block some good ones are Wanted Dead or Alive,Have Gun Will Travel that's my favorite and Rawhide have you watched any of those. Also another good one directed by Sam Raimi is The Quick and the Dead. Sorry to ramble and Deadwood is an amazing show too that's a must watch.

  • @hitchcockisthegoat

    The new cover art is disappointing. I wish they would’ve kept the original cover art of him standing with his back towards you holding his gun, showing his full height with the other characters (Hackman, Freeman and Harris), and also the brown background with “Unforgiven” written in orange font. I love Clint Eastwood’s face as much as anyone, but I hate how modern cover arts just show faces with the title of the movie. Packaging and cover art is just as important as the image and sound restoration to a lot of physical collectors, at least for me. I unfortunately will be passing on this release based on that.

    • @midlevelmedia
      @midlevelmedia  2 года назад

      I like the image, but I get what you're saying. I believe there is a 4K Steelbook out there? May want to check that out?

  • @craigwhitcher9629
    @craigwhitcher9629 2 года назад +1

    One of the best parts of this movie is the exaggeration of the myth of the old west. Just take in how the story grows regarding what was done to the girl by the two henchmen. At one point the legend was they cut off her nose and in reality the story was not as gruesome as described. Murder isnt glorious as told in many westerns… it’s cold and ugly.
    Richard Harris character English Bob is another example how legend isn’t the truth. English Bob was a sniveling coward that would shoot his nemesis in the back.
