Review of The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966) by Shadowlord08 — 10 Nov 2018
The Good the Bad and the Ugly.
How about The Bad Actor the Generic Goofy Villain and the Only Likable Character would be the best words to describe this film. The Good the Bad and the Ugly is a classic of it's time and influential in the Western genre. However it is far from the best Western movie and is more suited to be watched on a airplane when people are about to vomit. It is overly long, overbearing and pretentious. The main character is cool looking but lacks the depth that other better protagonists have like Django Freeman from Django Unchained and Marquis Warren from The Hateful Eight. The Man with no Name is a flat, uninteresting, frivolous character who has the personalty of a run down car. The Man with no Name is more of a wizard with magic sharpshooting skills than an actually cowboy. Clint Eastwood is a sub par actor at best and his directing is good but he has yet to actually make a good script that would make his films a bit more tolerable.
Oh and if any old time critics or hardcore Eastwood fans got a problem with my review, they can shove their pompous opinions up their ass and **** somewhere else. Sometimes people say you have to watch a movie twice to get it but two hours and a half of boring bullcrap is enough for me.
Opinions are subjective and that word is kryptonite for film critics.
Django Unchained is the best western of all time, so suck on that.
