97/100 A new bride coming home to her husband's ranch for the first time finds her family has been slaughtered and the land is a chunk of desert ...and now, someone wants her dead. This masterpiece, created by Sergio Leone - the man who can squeeze every drop of drama possible out of a scene ...and them some - rivals his other masterwork, "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly".…

Now we know all along just who is responsible for the wholesale slaughter that “Jill” (Claudia Cardinale) encounters when she arrives to join her family on their frontier ranch. She’s devastated, all alone and distinctly wary of “Harmonica” (Charles Bronson) who doesn’t speak much, unless it’s with his instrument or with his pistol.…

This is a masterpiece in story, sound and vision. The detailed long lingering beautiful shots and scenes building tension are a fabulous antidote to today's movies where stuff or extreme proportions must just happen every 3 minutes whatever! The opening scene is my favourite.…

Great western that I never watched despite owning the old DVD, but with Paramount releasing this on 4K UHD, decided to sit down through the 165-minute duration and it was a wonderful experience. Great performances all around, but most notably Jason Robards and Charles Bronson. Just another homerun from Sergio Leone though I think I prefer "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" but it's close. **4.5/5**

**One of the great western movies.** Western movies made in co-production by Italians and Americans (called "spaghetti-western") have been considered among the best that emerged within their genre, cleverly combining the tough action of Wild West gunslingers with the taste for raw realism and detail of the Italian filmmakers.…

The worst of the worst Leone Westerns. Leone destroyed the Westerns with his garbage, but the blame goes on to the critics who praised his lack of motivation, lack of inspiration, lack of credibility, lack of entertainment value, lack of strategy, just a total lack. This is the worst of his stupid Westerns. It's the most contrived of his contrived Westerns.…

I can't say that this script doesn't play on Clint Eastwood's "Man with No Name" (which Sergio Leone also directed), but it's not important. If you're a spaghetti western fan, this film is a step up. The idea of putting Fonda in a bad guy role, and casting Bronson as anti-hero was a little shocking at first.…

With apologies (not really) to fans who disagree, this is truly a classic western. I read a criticism that some scenes run long with agonizingly lengthy close-ups, but I found the cinematography intriguing. Those shots divulge nearly as much into the characters' personalities as a wad of dialogue from older traditional westerns.…
