    Un pur classique du western spaghetti. Rien que pour la bande son le film mérite d’être regardé au moins une fois ! L’histoire est intéressante même si un peu lente par moment. Cependant on ne s’ennuie pas et on apprécie cette fin en bonne et due forme.

    What a freaking masterpiece this was, Definitely one of the greatest western movies of all time, Clint Eastwood gives a freaking phenomenal performance as Blondie aka The Man With No Name, Despite this is my favourite Clint Eastwood movie while my favourite movie that was directed by Clint Eastwood is definitely Unforgiven, Sergio Leone did an incredible job directing it, The cinematography is absolutely fantastic, Definitely one of the best looking cinematography I’ve ever saw, The score is freaking incredible and that ending is easily fantastic, But yeah definitely my new favourite movie of the 60s and one of the greatest western movies ever Rating: 10/10

    Al tener tantas expectativas hacerca de está película, creo que no me termina de satisfacer. Aunque es un peliculón, pero como dije no termine de conectar, tengo que verla otra vez porque la verdad fue error mio . Sergio Leone solo con dos películas vistas se convierte en uno de mis directores favoritos y respetados. Lo que hace con la dirección de cámara, planos y escenas es espectacular, en un rato hablaré de esto en particular. Mi reseña en general…

    For a man called Blondie, I sure was expecting Clint Eastwood to be more blonde Cinematography and score are A++ here. Some scenes do drag on in that old-timey slow way. I also kept getting really taken out by all the ADR and everyone except the main characters not speaking English so the dubbed sound doesn’t match their mouths. What a weird way to make a movie, I bet it was confusing as hell to film. Also did not know Spain could look that much like the Wild West. Clint Eastwood has insane aura

    Easiest the best in the series and probably the most iconic too. It is for good reason as well. Firstly, the music is easily one of the best parts about The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. I don’t even know how to explain it, just the way it sounds, and the way it manages to blend gunshots, whip cracks, and yodeling into this incredible soundtrack, it fits the tone of the film perfectly. Secondly, the villain. Tuco is honestly…

    Me encantó, de la trilogía “The man with no name” definitivamente está es la mejor, se que no hay relación directa ya que en cada una, la historia es distinta, lo único que tiene en común es el personaje que interpreta Clint Eastwood. Es una película que realmente vale la pena cada minuto que dura, tal vez se sienta pesada en el segmento de la guerra civil, pero después de eso realmente vale la pena, no te pases, el enfrentamiento…

    “You see, in this world there’s two kinds of people, my friend: Those with loaded guns and those who dig. You dig.” It doesn’t get more of a classic western than this. Phenomenal filmmaking for the time. Every part of this film was done so well, especially the characters.

    É notável a evolução de Sergio Leone no decorrer dessa “trilogia”. E neste filme ele atinge seu ápice, tanto em direção quanto em grandiosidade. E pode se dizer que é o filme que revolucionou o gênero. Não nos é apresentado cowboys superficiais que apenas querem dinheiro e matar uns aos outros, e sim, personagens complexos cheio de camadas e princípios. Toda a trama envolvendo o Bom, Mal e Feio é de fato incrível, cada personagem tem sua peculiaridade e as…

    i goddamn love a western. and this film is an absolutke masterpiece in directing and cinematography. like every single scene has some sickass shot and the whole thing is so stylized and unique. Eastwood is just iconic doing so much with those cowboy stares. I will the say the film is bloody long and dosent really need to be although it does lend it this epic tone. The dubbing over all the dialog is goddamn hillarious and certainly takes you out of it at times, but again the direction and cinematography pull you straight back in. oh and the soundtrack !!! its so phenomenal. Absolutley brilliant

    Ce que je retiens de la trilogie du dollars, c’est des hauts, vraiment haut, des longueurs, de la stylisation à outrance, mais surtout une progression entre pour une poignée de dollars et le bon la brute et le truand. Le premier est plus minimaliste dans l’approche: le scénario est plus faible, l’espace est restreint, il n’y a très peu de plan d’ensemble, les scènes d’affrontement sont plus courtes. Dans quelques dollars de plus, la façon de filmer est différente, il…

Il film un po’ troppo lungo e in alcuni momenti devo ammettere che l’ho trovato un po’ noioso ma l’ultima mezz’ora mi è piaciuta molto quindi gli do 4 stelle. Mi sono anche quasi affezionato ai personaggi anche se in realtà sono tutti solo dei sadici ma alla…

    The Good, the Bad and the Ugly de Sergio Leone est un chef d’œuvre. Ni plus ni moins qu’une excellente réalisation pour terminer cette trilogie du Dollars. Le film met en scène trois personnages dont leurs noms représente leurs personnalités physiques ou morales. Ici, nos trois personnages se rassemblent et se trahissent dans le but d’obtenir un trésor inestimable, le bon possède le nom de la tombe, le truand possède le lieu, et la brute possédait l’information du trésor.

    The first two hours of this film work to slowly create buildup for the last 30-40 minutes. The thing is, the last bit of The Good, The Bad and the Ugly is what cinema is all about. The music, the camera spinning, the wide shots—they all pump the scene with adrenaline and make this something everyone should see at least once. I could’ve done without some of the pandering to Civil War buffs, but the film has just enough gusto to…
