Editorial Reviews

The great Italian director Sergio Leone capped off his cycle of Clint Eastwood spaghetti westerns (the so-called Man with No Name trilogy) with the magnificent epic The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. "The Good" is Eastwood, reprising his role as an ultra-cool, serape-clad, cheroot-chomping antihero, known here as Blondie; "The Bad" is a ruthless killer called "Angel Eyes" (Lee Van Cleef); and "The Ugly" is a greedy bandit named Tuco (Eli Wallach). The story, which follows the search for a fortune in hidden gold, has the archetypal simplicity of a folktale punctuated by significant amounts of highly stylized violence. Leone expands his successful formula here: Wallach's manic greed plays nicely against Eastwood's unflappability, adding a dimension of humor absent from the earlier films, as Blondie and Tuco form an unlikely partnership. At the same time, the director revels in his trademark juxtaposition of wide-angle shots and ultra-close-ups and his oh-so-fluid moving camera, resulting in powerful imagery that set new standards for wide-screen cinematography. As superb as his music was for Leone’s previous films, Ennio Morricone's score here is one of the all-time greats -- music that, with its twangy, ominous guitar chords, has come to define the spaghetti western. Along with Once Upon a Time in the West, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly stands as the apotheosis of the genre and a work of timeless perfection, completing Leone’s reinvention of the movie western. The DVD includes 17 minutes of scenes that were deleted after the film's original Italian release. Gregory Baird, Barnes & Noble

The Definitive Western Collection!by RedSoxFan

October 31, 2008: This set is an absolute must-buy for any movie buff. It collects the epic Man With No Name Trilogy (Fistful Of Dollars, For A Few Dollars More, and Leone's masterpiece, The Good, The Bad & The Ugly), and as a bonus throws in the lesser known Duck, You Sucker (titled A Fistful of Dynamite in the U.S.)!

Leone redefined the Western in the early 1960's by actually looking east at Japanese filmaker, Akira Kurasowa's work on his brilliant samurai pictures like Seven Samurai. Leone was impressed at Kurasowa's Western sensibilities and his love for the works of John Ford. He decided to remake, almost shot for shot, the Japanese legend's Yojimbo as a Western, and cast a little known American television actor named Clint Eastwood as the lead anti-hero originally played by Toshiro Mifune. The movie was Fistful of Dollars, and the Spaghetti Western was born, invigorating a genre many thought was dead.

The real gem in this set though is the third movie in his Eastwood trilogy, The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly. Already a success after he followed up his first hit with an excellent sequal, For a Few Dollars More, Leone decided to go all out for the final film. The result is an epic of incomparable quality and stands on top of my list as one of the greatest movies ever made.

The plot revolves around three men's search for buried gold during the final days of the Civil War. Clint reprise his roll as the nameless gunslinger and is joined on his journey by the two-faced and equally tenacious Tuco (played with comic brilliance by Eli Wallach). Opposing them is the cunning and brutal bounty hunter, Angel Eyes (Lee Van Cleef, in a roll that cannot be praised enough). The three men converge at the cemetery where the loot is buried for an epic standoff that is heightened by Ennio Morricone's unforgettable score.

In closing, even casual fans of Westerns will want to own this set. There are great documentaries on the making of the films and Leone's career as one of the most prolific filmmakers of the 20th century.

October 15, 2008: Great westerns. Haunting music that you can't shake. Operatic themes, pregnant pauses, tension and dry humor - all are about a bunch of guys (all guys) who can't stand each other - the dialogue is terse, the camera shots focus close in on tiny expressions (like Clint Eastwood' squinting) and then pan to vast western landscapes. Even if you don't like the genre, these will get to you. These movies made stars of Clint Eastwood, James Coburn, Eli Wallach, Rod Steiger and Lee Van Cleef.
