The film that has jumped the most on my chart. It's nearly flawless. The Mexican standoff at the end always gets my heart pumping no matter how many times I've seen the film; that's the sign of fantastic film making. Did I mention it has one of the greatest themes in history? *Whistles*

Why is this a foreign language film? It is not a foreign language film.

Yeah, it's not a foreign language film, but it's an Italian production, so I guess they messed up there. Still an international production anyways.

I am not at all a western genre fan, but even I loved every moment of it. On of my favorite movie of all time. The characters, the acting, the direction by Sergio Leone, the AWESOME background music and of course the badass Mexican Stand-off I loved everything.

There are two types of people in this world. Those who think that The Good, the Bad and the Ugly is a masterpiece and those who haven't seen it.

Simply Sergio Leone masterpiece. You do not really have to be a western fan to appreciate this film. Awesome cinematography and realistic portray of the raw nature of the wild west. Brilliant musical score. The duel is truly iconic. It was very difficult for me and still is to put this first before Once Upon A Time In the West. Both awesome classics.
