  1. 5 Stars  Rated 5 out of 5!
    A must see for any western movie fan!!

    "Once Upon A Time In The West" is one of the most well made movies of the western genre. The sweeping old west landscapes look truly amazing on the DVD’’s widescreen anamorphic format, its hard to believe that this movie was made 35 years ago. The plot is brilliantly developed in a typical Sergio Leone, visually narrated, story-telling style. The music is wonderful and compliments the theme perfectly. This is not a typical shoot em’’ up, good guy vs. bad guy western. There are great performances all around, especially by Charles Bronson, Henry Fonda and Claudia Cardinale.

    A must see for all Western movie fans!

    Now THIS is a western!

    Though some say The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly is the best western of all time, many like myself tend to give that title to his film. I feel it (just barely) beats out GBU. This is an amazing fantasy film set in western days-it grips you from the start and doesn’’t let go until the end credits. Unless of course you don’’t like westerns or like Dude, Where’’s My Car?-then you’’ll tune out before the opening credits are finished. This film has the one and only Charles Bronson as the hero of the film, and hopefully his performance should shatter people’’s notions of Bronson’’s acting ability. He’’s right on par with Eastwood as the embodiment of the cold, silent gunfighter. It’’s also fantastic to see Mr. Twelve Angry Men himself play a villian as ruthless as Lee Van Cleef, if not moreso. Claudia Cardinale was a great choice for a female lead. She’’s extraordinarily good looking, yet has a very strong badass-ness about her. If you’’re big on Leone’’s westerns, you’’ve no doubt seen this a few times, but anyone who has been putting it off shouldn’’t wait any longer. Why? Coz this dvd is a fantastic package for the price. You certainly don’’t have to listen to me though; Take a look at the reviews for this film!
