I’m just going to pretend that they mispronounced The Good the Bad and the Ugly terribly and it sounded like Star Wars
Lol
ditto
Preach
Any of the Spaghetti Westerns. One should have made it.
utoobia Did you watch the video???
I am a huge Star Wars fan, it is actually my favorite movie ever, but It definitely does not deserve to be on this list over movies like the Good the Bad and the Ugly
Trust Me Bro...
THEY KNOW!!!
They Just Pull Crap Like This
Because They Think It Makes
Them Seem "EDGY"
@@madpeace1764 I think it also generates more discussion therefore more comments and therefore more Traffic/views
@@madpeace1764 or its just a list , actually I don't even care how they position movies , I just take notes of many movies mentioned to than give me a chance to watch movie which I never even heard about it , but yeah I wouldn't pick star wars either
TGTHBATU drags in places. Tell me you don't get bored in the civil war scenes, especially with the expanded cut. Nah the best one was right before - For a Few Dollars More. It's a tighter story, a more interesting villian, a funkier bunch of outlaws, and the stagecoach robbery scene is the best thing Leone ever filmed. TGTBATU has a better soundtrack of course, but that's about it.
@@bobdouglass8010 the civil war scenes are part of the anti war message
The Outlaw Josey Wales should have definitely been on the list , you could tell He learned a lot acting in previous westerns , he showed in directing this movie that he had what it takes to be a renowned director which he has become with numerous Academy awards. The Josey Wales movie had so many memorable characters.
"Endeavor to persevere!"
One of the best lines in movies and useful in real life 😅
Rio Bravo, The Searchers, River of No Return, Young Guns and Tombstone are my personal Top 5. Spent a lot of time as a kid watching Westerns with my Dad. Great memories.
Good list . But for the top westerns of all time for over forty years 'Shane
Was rated as the best western . But in the 1990' it was replaced by the Searchers . Both excellent films that captured the feel of the west . A third film , The Unforgiven based on Alan LeMay's novel of the same name and staring Burt Lancaster , Audie Murphy , Audrey Hepburn and a young Doug McClure was another that captured the era . The Shootist
Was also good but being set in 1908 was more about the end of the western era and settlement . There are many good films and many more just hype to cash in on the genere . Of course many tell a good action tale . Jeremiah Johnson was good as was Across the Wide Missouri as tales of the early west and fur trade .
Of course Star Wars is the best western of all time.
Just like the Good The Bad and The Ugly is the best science fiction movie ever.
lmaoo
Of course, of course! And the "Seventh Seal" is the best comedy.
And CineFix is the best circus
😂😂🤣
Yeah no, the original comment of this was hilarious, you're just desperate
The title should be: A random list of 10 movies with sand
luca alberetto I don’t like sand. It’s coarse and rough and irritating-and it gets everywhere.
I'd make the title "List of pretentious movies designed to impress the common folk with our obscure choices that only us elites could understand and appreciate the nuances of, while leaving the commoners who preferred movies like The Good, the Bad and the Ugly to feel somehow culturally inferior ". Or maybe I'm just a paranoid conspiracy theorist.
@@terrydactyl4350 seriously, who thinks star wars is a western??
@@BrendanJSmith Westerns are a bunch of Crap .The only Great, and Real western IS ," High Noon". People are COWARDS just like, "Mark Twain" said. John Wayne is No actor. The best thing that HE ever did IS, " He became a Catholic at the end of his life.
Terry Dactyl it sounds like you just haven’t watched that many westerns
My personal favorite western is The Ten Commandments with Charlton Heston, followed closely by Terminator 2. Well done @cinefix! You really showed up for this one.
How about Dirty Harry? A modern western? For me it's a police story. I would be disappointed if I wanted to see a western and they showed something different like some Japanese film or Star Wars, for me Star Wars is Sci-Fi. These people are trying to be too clever.
The reply needed. Thank you.
10) The Shootist
09) Red River
08) Broken Arrow
07) The Sons of Katie Elder
06) Shane
05) The Gunfighter
04) Open Range
03) The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

Honorable Mention - A Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More, The Searchers, The Outlaw Josie Wales, The Man Who Shot Liberty Valence, Silverado, Unforgiven, Rio Bravo, High Noon, and The Ox Bow Incident
Finally someone that knows their westerns👍👏
Have you seen The Wild Bunch and McCabe & Mrs. Miller though?
I disagree but I appreciate the Big Country at #1. I love that film so much!
Good list but The Shootist. Ick. A tired vehicle for a tired John Wayne.
Nope,
Your nr.3 is the clear and ONLY nr.1 of the westerns. No sane person would challenge this.
Star Wars is a good western, but to be honest, I liked Titanic better.
😂😂😂
nah bro the Lego Movie is the best
What about the Angry Birds movie. Great western Second only to Ford versus Ferrari movie
The best western is obviously shrek 2.
Titanic was an Eastern.
Absolute tragedy the Good the Bad and the Ugly isn't on here
^^^
Cards5Rock It got a mention but in the end cinefix picked "Once upon a time in the west" over that movie. I guess they didn't wanted to pick 2 Sergio Leone movies for this list...
Once Upon a Time in the West is wayyyyy better anyway. GBU isn't even the best Dollar trilogy film (A few dollars more is.)
They took the better one, so no problem.
Or The Ox-Bow Incident. Or the original Magnificent Seven. Or the other Unforgiven movie called The Unforgiven starring Burt Lancaster and Audrey Hepburn. Or Tombstone.
"C'era una volta il West", "il buono, il brutto e il cattivo ", "per un pugno di dollari " e "per qualche dollaro in più ", sono capolavori in assoluto e senza tempo del grande genio Sergio Leone e con musica straordinaria del mitico e immortale Ennio Morricone, due leggende...
Agreed
Si
Don’t understand but think I do. Thank you.
Jack Elam does not get enough recognition. He has played supporting roles in so many westerns
Don't forget the Gunfighter & so many .ore....
Partly his fault! - J. Elam got offered to play the evil gunslinger in "Shane", but he declined saying it had not enough lines for him! - And so, a black panther like Jack Palance made Shane into a classic ! -
Star wars?? Wtf?! I can see how they tried to be clever comparing the similarities to westerns but come on!!!
You know, my favorite Western of all time is Once Upon a Time in the West, but I'll always say the best objective Western is The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. How it doesn't make a list of best westerns, but Star Wars is #1, baffles the mind. Hell I love Star Wars. And I know it takes some inspiration from Westerns. But it is not a Western... and certainly not the #1 Western of all time.
You know I love CineFix but I agree it just feels like they were trying to be smart with they’re choices but it just came off as stupid, and even though there are western themes the reason it’s not the best western film is because it’s not a western Star Wars is a sci-if movie because even though like I said there are themes for every blaster toting outlaw who doesn’t fit in there’s also ancient space samurai who use laser swords where as TGTBATU is a full on spaghetti western and a damn good one at that.
@@joejohnson5242 I'm do 100% agree with you. But to me Star Wars is not even a Scifi movie it a fantasy movie. Yes it is set in space and have space ships but it also have space wizards and stuff.
Tried to be clever? Star Wars is a space opera, based on western films, but with fancy space hardware instead of horses and guns. The clever ones were the makers of this garbage.
Obviously picked by someone who went to a post-modernist film school (probably in California) trying to destroy and subvert the genre by deconstructing it. So... the list is basically a verbose piece of crap trying to prove their own cleverness.
That 'The Good, the Bad and the Ugly' did not make this list makes this rating a sham.
It was on the segment with several other Leone films. I agree that Once Upon A Time In The West is Leone’s masterpiece Western.
Yup, it’s rigged.
Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid is iconic the chemistry of Newman Hollywood Royalty & Redford will never b forgotten
I'm surprised Quigley Down Under didn't get a mention. A great example of a western story which takes place in another part of the world. It's classic all the way through with an awesome ending.
It would have been had it not been for ‘Star Wars’, the western😂
Quigley is so underrated.
The question can only be "what's the best Western after the Good, Bad, Ugly"
The Good, The Bad And The Ugly is an amazing film. Easily the best in the dollars trilogy, but nothing holds a candle to Leone's next western Once Upon A Time In The West. It's one of those movies where every second is brilliantly executed.
@@ragejoona431 fistful of dollars better than good bad ugly no cappity
Idk the original true grit hold up pretty well
Yes friend, I agree with you. Greetings. ruclips.net/video/EqIyEgx6rjk/видео.html *THE GOOD THE BAD AND THE UGLY* Western Guitar cover by *The Ventures*
Star Wars
The best thriller? Meet the Parents. Best historical movie? Reservoir Dogs. Best comedy? Schindler's List.
Here, I can make random top 10's too.
Saddest movie: Lego Movie 2
Best kids movie: Hacksaw Ridge
Best family movie: The Human Centipede
Say you're not far off. 'Schindler's List' is a work of fiction after all.
Best kids movie? Inglorious Basterds.
Once Upon A Time in the West is a movie that can never be remade. Fonda, Robards and Bronson are irreplaceable with any actors today.
Nobody but Leone could take America's leading man....Henry Fonda ....and cast him as a degenerate baby killer!!
Don't forget Strode and Elam!! The first 2 guys shot in that movie are LEGENDS!!
Robards is so good in this movie.
That was a weird movie set in a western setting. Did not like it.
@@Kwawzeye00 Wow. Woody Strode. Amazing!
I realize it wasn't a movie, but a mini-series, but Lonesome Dove is the greatest western of all time. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll celebrate, and you will be thankful you saw it. It's a one-of-a-kind type of show that never gets old and stands the test of time. It's a love story, it's a friend's story, it's a taming the frontier story, it's a good guys vs bad guys story, and it's brutal picture of the old west and old times story. Never have I gone through ALL the extremes of emotion as I did watching Lonesome Dove. Nothing comes close.
Lonesome Dove is as good as it gets
I think Star Wars are also the best James Bond movie!!!
And The best documentary
And the best depiction of stop motion animation ever
Star Trek into darkness is my favorite rom com from National georgraphic. Very dark and violent
@@ryeguy2256 How about Rocky !!!!

Tell Clint Eastwood the best western is Star Wars and make it back alive.

Now I understand how Leslie Nielsen and Priscilla Pressley came out laughing hysterically out of the movie theater that had just shown Platoon. This Star Wars pick as the best Western made me laugh as well.
Top 10 Westerns according to Hellen Keller
When Star Wars is your pick for the best western of all time, you lose all credibility. Full stop.
What floydoid said. This was the sorriest and most intellectually constipated countdown of movies I have ever seen.
Couldn't say it better ... throws a real doubt over how serious this video is beyond click-bait.
Absolutely. A junk list. Star Wars? Sukiyaki? F*** off!
@N Red River is in my top #2. Great choice.
@N Red River is my #1. Will Penny is my #2.
Jar Jar Binks does make one hell of a cowboy. I could have sworn westerns took place in the old west
It was in a galaxy far far west of here...
My dad had a DVD of "Once upon a Time in the West". I watched it, and it's what got me interested in westerns.
Star Wars is a pretty good western! But have they ever seen Home Alone 2?
Lol clearly you haven't watch 21 Jump Street
Screw Home Alone 2, Cars is the best western
Any top 10 westerns list without Blade Runner is a joke.
Everybody knows that Mary poppins is the best Western!
Was that sam elliot or Kirk Douglass in star wars..?
My favorite western is Jurassic Park. Because you know Alan Grant wears a cowboy hat...

The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly is hands down the best western and action movie of all time. It works on so many levels, its a heist movie, war movie, comedy movie, buddy movie, historical movie, quest movie all rolled into one with great characters and character interactions all played to one of the greatest most inventive musical scores ever composed. Star Wars has many of these same qualities and Once Upon A Time in the West may be more poetic, but you just can't beat the sheer entertainment and rewatchability factor of The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly. Clint Eastwood, Eli Wallach and Lee Van Cleef are quite possibly the coolest trio ever assembled on screen.
Maybe not #1 in my book, but valid points one and all. :-)
ComicBook Ninja eh I wouldn't say its an action flick though.
Great flick no doubt, and one of the best westerns of all time but action? Can't say it os
Why? because it takes place in the old west? Is Raiders of the
lost ark a war movie or an action movie?
ComicBook Ninja action, adventure, war
GBU is an over rated spag Western. Once Upon a Time is way better, High Plains Drifter is way better.
Not necessarily a fan of every choice, but very fond of the process used to come up with the list. Breaking down Westerns into subcategories allowed the creator to showcase many films beyond the 10 and defend their picks from the subcategories. Additionally, the creator of the list gets around the most obvious weakness of the approach (more than one movie in a category belonging on the list), by introducing a tie in that category…. Brilliant!
The Wild Bunch needed to win something: incredibly well made film
BACK TO THE FUTURE: PART 3 more western then STAR WARS
Have to love the "wake up juice" from that movie!
True
Ah yes, Jabba the Hutt, my favourite gun-slinging cowboy...
The best line in unforgiving was when little Bill was shot he said I don’t deserve to die,I was building a house..
Bro did us dirty in the end with whatever I heard.
Going with the reasoning they used to pick Star Wars, then they clearly overlooked Lawrence of Arabia, it fits the bill perfectly and has better horses.
and is 100 times a better movie!!
Picking the top westerns is like picking the top movies. Unless a big fat *IMO* is added.
While I see your point it’s still a war film.

I bet someone really wanted to place T2 Judgement Day for number 1 as the most western movie survey
I don't know which is better, the film editing or the script and narration. Both are superb. It was fun learning new things about movies I grew up watching beginning in the late 50s. Bravo.
My husband says I'm the only woman he's known who loves westerns! My top 10 are: rio-bravo,the shootist,Shane,last train to gun hill,high noon, stagecoach, liberty Valance,Jubal and true grit🙂( #11 would be any Clint Eastwood old western,,)
You pick Star Wars for a western ??? WTF !
My personal favorites are Outlaw Josie Wales and Jeremiah Johnson .
My favorite westerns are: the good, the bad, and the ugly. High Plains Drifter. Tomb stone. I'll be your huckleberry. Lol

@@frankspikes4867 You're welcome. (A sir, FWIW.)
Tracy Stubblèfield I was wondering about Jeremiah Johnson? Is it a western? Or a pre-western western? I think it takes place in the 1840s. As for Star Wars being included in this list, I believe CineFix is just trying to provoke a reaction from its viewers without thought of damage to its credibility.
No "The magnificent seven" and no "The good, the bad and the ugly"? It must be a joke...
atrompazos74 along with “The Cowboys”. I can name several others that could out do this guys top 10
Tombstone > Magnificent 7
@@thedeeareee785 I really like "Tombstone", and it could easily be in my westerns' top10 list, but not over "The magnificent 7".
Lol, kids whining that The Good, the Bad and the Ugly isn't #1 because it's the only western they've ever seen. I love you Cinefix
I'm a huge fan of westerns. What I'm a fan of is John Ford/John Wayne in Stagecoach (1939) and The Searchers (1956), Henry Fonda in My Darling Clementine (1946) and The Ox Bow Incident (1943), and especially Clint Eastwood in The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly (1966), For A Few Dollars More (1965), and A Fistful of Dollars (1964). All of which are great movies.
Once Upon A Time In The West has indescribably gorgeous cinematography and music. It can still make tears well up in my eyes over 50 years later.
This list made tears of anger well up in my eyes...
Its soooooo gooooood
Such a great movie. Gets better every time I see it.
I’m so glad to see others that believe Once Upon A Tim In The West is superior to The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly.
@@74camarolt The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly is the best western ever made followed by The Wild Bunch.
6:38 "We think we're pretty GOOD pickers, actually..."
Precedes to pick something like "Star Wars" as #1...
Yep. You nailed it. Shit job. The Magnificent 7 is arguably no.1 but I love Eastwood so his movies always high on list. STAR WARS...give me a break.
They maybe good at picking their nose but movies its awful
I kinda knew they were gonna screw up on #1 when they put Unforgiven and Rio Bravo further down the list than they should have been. But I didn't think they'd screw up that badly. In my view, they went badly off the rails at #2.
Star Wars a Western! And there was me thinking it was a romantic comedy. Doh…
Naythen Lowe I though so too is anyone disappointed Clint Eastwood or Trinity isn’t on here?
Let's go...The Wild Bunch is one of my favorite westerns.

so on point!!
@@toddstevens13 , yes but you say Star Wars A New Hope is the Best Western of all time is not credible. Not saying it isn't possibly a decent Western. It is a sci-fi fantasy with Western elements. Certainly not enough to be labeled higher than The Good The Bad and The Ugly. Ridiculous.

I can't say whether it is the best, my personal tops being the Leone westerns, but had they put Tombstone in the number 1 spot I would have no problem with it at all. I have huge respect for it on the star power alone, not to mention the production design, costumes, dialogues etc...

My thoughts exactly. Lucas may have combined patterns from old westerns and samurai movies set in a sci-fi motif, but Star Wars itself is NOT a western. It’s sci-fi. A space opera. Not western or samurai.
So, yeah. There’s no way that counts.
maybe if you are under 10 ?

The Good, Bad and The Ugly IS THEE BEST...Period
Yeah. I don't know anybody, and I know hundreds of folks, who doesn't think that TGTBATU is the top Western of all time. Even one of the top MOVIES of all time, never mind
that it was a western. Vast panoramic vistas, unparalleled cinematography, fantastic acting ( Eli Wallach deserved a best supporting actor oscar), a smash-hit

Instead of the searchers being number 10 it should be first and
No mention of 310 to Yuma. That's not right
I agree. searchers is the greatest western of all time.
@Samsung McKone if you get a chance check out the original 3:10 to Yuma, the Remake was great however the original with Glenn Ford and Van Heflin is totally worth your time.
I couldn't watch this after they said Searchers was number 10. I can understand it maybe not being number one, especially taking into account I don't believe anybody at this channel is over the age of 40. But number 10? Couldn't continue to watch.
Yeah guys you'll need to do a Cinefix Remix, because I think with hindsight some changes are needed!
after Leone released Westerns, the game changed
The reason you could not surpass the John Wayne-Clint Eastwood era in westerns is because few after could compare, and you know it.
I'll take Eastwood and especially Lee Van Cleef over Wayne anyday.
You are so right! I can't get enough of a good western.....
@@nonfinale685 Actors matter far more than that. Eastwood, Wallach and Van Cleef were essential to the GBU. Eastwood to all three films. The director may be the head, but actor is the hands. It's collaborative on every level. There is just something about Wayne's goofy, hokey persona I can't get by. Eastwood's cold, soft spoken persona is what I personify the western antihero to be. And Lee Van Cleef is one of the most underrated actors ever.
@@nonfinale685 I agree with most of that, but I'm not so sure the Dollars trilogy would have hit like it did without Eastwood. I don't see him as expendable there. And on the flip side, I don't think it would have hit like it did if Leone wasn't helming it. I read that Charles Bronson had turned down that role...not sure which...can't see it having the same impact. He sure changed his tune for Once Upon a Time in the West didn't he? Haha. I definitely prefer the Spaghetti Westerns to the American westerns at the time, with the exception of Peckinpah's Wild Bunch and Ballad of Cable Hogue.
@@nonfinale685 I absolutely LOVED Van Cleef in the Big Gundown.

A top ten without The Outlaw Josie Wales, Jeremiah Johnson, The Wild Bunch, and The Magnificent Seven is a joke. No credibility whatsoever.
Totally with you on Outlaw Josie Wales - second best western ever after the Searchers.

Not to forget Pale Rider, a favorite Eastwood of mine.
Silverado, Open Range, Lawman, Invitation to a Gunfighter, Warlock , 3:10 to Yuma, Red River , ....
It was fun to watch and you showed a lot of my favorite oaters. Having grown up in the fifties and sixties on black and white cowboy flicks, both at the movies and on weekend TV, there will always be a place in my heart for a good western. I think you got quite imaginative in cross dressing the genres and I really don't mind, nor does the order you have chosen to put them in. Just seeing most of my favorites ( Treasure of the Sierra Madre somehow got lost in the editing) was a real treat. Thank you for this Vid
The entire Dollars trilogy should be on here
No.1 & 2 is a Joke! “The Wildbunch” is my personal Favorite Western
Definitely
@@gregthoms5232 One Eyed Jack's
Marlon brando
Hayden I disagree. But either way tho list is ignorant.
You top it with Japan and Starwars? Smoke another one and try again.
A Japanese movies would have been fine, if you know, it was an actual decent movie like seven samurai
Wow...there’s 16 minutes I’ll never get back.
This dude really put some random Japanese movie and a sci fi spectacle over Once upon a time in the west
The Good, The Bad, And the Ugly. That is bae!
NET Alliance - Star Wars Fun exactly!
100% Agree.
This top 10s bullshit.
*NET Alliance - Star Wars Fun* why are you calling it shit? because Bae is the danish word for shit you know.....
Agreed. I love star wars, but #1 in a top 10 best westerns........come on
P Pipe
I know, right!!!!!
Jeremiah Johnson is an awesome western!!!
Blazing Saddles is a western farce and a spoof of all westerns made by Mel Brooks!
Why was it even mentioned in this list???
One of my absolute favorite movies of all time is the remake of 310 to Yuma. I didn't expect it to make the list but an honorable mention would have been cool.
Ben Foster made one of my favorite villains in that film. I thought he was going to go on to big things after that, but people seemed to fail to notice him. Hopefully he'll get better roles after his great turn in Hell Or High Water.
Erik Dresner It's a crime he's never been nominated. For either that movie or Hell or High Water. He was much better than Bridges in that movie.
Benny Ren 100% agree, just re-watched last week. I love it, definitely in my top 10 westerns.
Benny Ren j
I love that movie !!
Can I have these 16 minutes back please?
Fantastic list
The Wild Bunch should have been on the list!
They mentioned it, but not nearly as much as I think it deserves. *Sigh* Can't thumbs-up more than once for this comment, tho!
They already had Peckinpah with Pat Garett and Billy the Kid - but I agree, the Wild Bunch is a better film altogether, exploring similar themes, but with a more energetic style to t
At number one!
The fact that none of the dollars trilogy featured voids this list
At least he put Once upon a time in the west on this list which is good right?
Right?
Right?
Right????????
They were mentioned in the segment on Leone when OUATITW was selected as the top Leone western. I have to agree.
I love Once Upon a Time in the West, but in my eyes The Good, the Bad and the Ugly is Leone’s crowning achievement
Thanks you for including ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST. My favorite western
One overlooked western that should be on this list is "Hombre" with a slew of great actors in it.
Absolutely!!
My favourite western of all time will always be Citizen Kane.
Blade Runner is far superior, idiot.
@@agi238 dude Spiderman 3 it's a superior western
@@gerarquiaFM nah birth of a nation is
Guys come down, that’s his opinion we all know that best will always be a wrinkle in time
@@jamesleodelacruz facts
1 the good, the bad and the ugly
2 Once upon a time in the west
3 The outlaw Josey Wales.
4 Django unchained
5 the quick and the dead.
i loved the remake of true grit that little girl was amazing and the support cast was fabulous
Yes, The Quick And The Dead is definitely one of my all time favorites! Walmart had it on dvd for about $3.00 late last year and I snagged that sucker up and skipped some stuff on the grocery list to buy it! Gene Hackman and Diane Lane are superb in that one!!!
@@TheRomaduce I saw it but don;t recall it at all. I'll hafts go back and watch it again. Rooster Cogburn was his character originally right? So True Grit was a take off from that movie and character? I gotta go watch it now. You piqued my curiosity. :)
This has got to be the only top 10 western list where the movies get less western the closer you get to #1
The tragic hero must always ride off into the sunset because he's the kind of man you need but don't want around afterwards. In the real world a prime example I can think of is a man like General Patton.
Can’t believe you left out Silverado. In the early 80’s, when everyone was saying that the western was a dieing art form, this movie came along and just about singlehandedly saved the genre. From the very start, to the finish, Lawrence Kasdan, with the help of an all star cast, and a majestic film score, brought us a rip snortin, shootem up that pulled the genre from the scrap heap, and reminded everyone just how much pure fun a western can be. The final showdown between Kevin Kline, the reluctant gunslinger with a heart of gold, and Brian Dennehy’s crooked town sheriff, with Kline’s backdrop - a church, and Dennehy’s - an empty semi desert, was the perfect metaphor for the fight between good and evil that nothing does better than the western.😃👍🏻
"That ain't right."

I could not take Silverado seriously, especially the main bad guy Brian Dennehy. Dennehy just treated his Cobb character like a joke. He did a better job in First Blood as Sherriff Will Teasle who hasseled Rambo. But in Silverado, as I pointed out, I really couldn't take him seriously. Kevin Costner was also a joke in that movie. He acted like such a clown .
I'll never understand why people thought it was so great. It had the same basic western plot with no surprises. It was actually slow and boring.
Dannt Glover was probably the best part in that whole movie and that was it.
"Goodbye Cobb."
"Goodbye Paden."
Two friends parting ways...
Silverado was cool. Kevin Costner has some awesome westerns under his belt like Dances With Wolves, Open Range, Hatfield McCoys, Yellowstone, even Wyatt Earp was good despite being overshadowed by Tombstone.
@@wiseguymaybe well aren't you pleasant, the reason Costner's character acted as a reckless clown is because he was young and reckless, so that's how he portrayed the character on screen...
ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST is the number 1 Western that has ever been made. The texture of it, the styling, the slow studied pacing, even the action is artistically drawn. It has superb tension throughout the film without horror gimmicks or fast cut chases. The music, the sound effects, characterization, visuals, situations, all work together to achieve the tension. Leone used the juxtaposition of power and vulnerability to create threat. All with classic Italian romance where it has to look good. The film is a work of art and is superior to all the rest in my humble opinion.
That movie has like 20 minutes if great stuff, surrounded by uncharismatic conversations and one really hot lady
But another western movie of all time is The Magnificent Seven, The Good, The Bad & The Ugly, Unforgiven, Red River & underrated comedy Cat Ballou.
@@azimisyauqieabdulwahab9401 The greatest comedy western of all time is Brook's Blazing Saddles. IMO
@@spencerhjalseth7288 agree like it but blah....searchers or the man who shot liberty valance by far....mind you love war wagon too
Sound design was incredible but "For A Few Dollars More" was my favourite of the Leone westerns.
Once Upon a Time in the West (1968): Sergio Leone's epic masterpiece, definatly my favorite, amazing actores, music, so many unice scenes, and most americans don't know the movie or don't understand the genius of the movie, what qualifies it even more.
Super picks
