The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly - #4

| Saturday, March 14, 2009

IMDB rating: 8.9
My rating: 9

The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly was the first Clint Eastwood movie I've seen and it didn't disappoint. It was a 1966 Italian Western dubbed over in English so I was a little skeptical, but this was one of the more enjoyable movies I've seen.

The movie is listed at 160 minutes, but I watched the dvd special edition which added another 20. The first half went by slowly but it really picked up the pace in the second. I watched this film in 2 parts so it wasn't that bad.

The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly was a great movie by today's standards which makes it even more impressive that it was made 40 years ago. The music and camerawork were fantastic and really brought out the majestic beauty of the American West. I'm not sure I would put this as the 4th best movie of all time, but I might keep it in the top 10.

There is a lot of violence, but it's not too graphic. If you have the time, I recommend watching this.
