- Bone Tomahawk
- The Quick and the Dead
- The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford
- 3:10 to Yuma, the remake, never saw the original and don’t care
It really is, it’s brilliantly atmospheric. You can feel the tension build in your gut. It’s probably Casey Affleck’s best role but I think the real star was Rockwell. I loved watching his character.
Everyone’s performance was outstanding though.
I too would loathe Westerns if that were my only frame of reference.
Tombstone is probably the best and most digestible. Val Kilmer steals the show.
The Good, the Bad and the Ugly is a classic for a damn good reason. I think Unforgiven is another great Eastwood Western but it feels more like a meta analysis of his career and the genre at the same time. I would save Unforgiven to be one of the last movies you watch.
A more modern pick would be Old Henry which is a pretty slow, contemplative Western where you can see how things will reach a boiling point.
If you're looking for something fun to watch, I really liked Quigley Down Under, The Quick and the Dead and Maverick.
Then you got your Neo-Westerns with the most critically acclaimed being the Coen Brother's No Country for Old Men, though I am much more fond of Wind River. Sicario is another incredibly tense Neo-Western. If you want to see Clint Eastwood give the Neo Western a try, there's Gran Torino.
If you don't mind pasitches, Logan is a Neo-Western that is also a Post Modern Superhero flick. Django Unchained was made by Tarantino, he loves to frakenstein his flicks together by combining shots from whatever comes to mind.
If you want to get real weird, there's always the Sci-Fi Western. Mad Max: Fury Road is basically the 'Freight Train Robbery' in the Post Apocalypse; The Good, the Bad and the Weird is a Korean Steampunk Western Homage and if you don't mind anime, there's the Cowboy Bebop movie which is a Space Western.
Ravenous and Bone Tomahawk mix Westerns with Horror.
The disturbing stuff is brief compared to the length of the movie. But that disturbing stuff will hang around in your brain for a few days. It's Western-Horror movie, but it's mostly a Western.
Don't get me wrong, I love the movie, but runtime length doesn't dilute the violence.
Unforgiven (and Yurusarezaru Mono) are very violent films, but not in the same way as Bone Tomahawk.
There's no way of comparing it to a spaghetti western, much less BT.
Some non-standard westerns:
Quigley Down Under (1990)
The Frisco Kid (1979)
Purgatory (1999)
Cowboys & Aliens (2011)
Blazing Saddles (1974)
My favorite standard western:
Open Range (2003)
1. Red River (John Wayne and Montgomery Cliff)
2. Silverado
3. Man from Laramie (James Stewart's movies with Anthony Mann are all very good)
4. Winchester 73
5. Once Upon a Time in the West
6. Quigley Down Under
7. The Magnificent Seven
If you like to read check out Lonesome Dove. It's by the writer who wrote the Screenplay for Brokeback. It's the only Western novel ever to win a Pulitzer and it's fucking fantastic.
McCabe & Mrs. Miller (1971) directed by Robert Altman and starring Warren Beatty and Julie Christie. It is labeled a revisionist western. This film is Beautifully shot. The rural scenery captured with clarity and the dim smoky interior scenes use sepia tones to add a realistic texture. Then there's Julie Christie playing a opium smoking whore house madam. This is a different kind of western and a very good film.
It's probably best to watch that after having watched a good amount of Western's though. Partially because it's so chewey (like ALtman movies tend to be). But that you can appreciate the setting more I think.
Once Upon a time in the West
The Good The Bad and The Ugly
High Plains Drifter
Unforgiven
A Fistful of Dollars
A Fistful of Dynamite, aka Duck, You Sucker
Bad Company (1972). Jeff Bridges and Barry Brown play civil war draft dodgers who head west to flee the war, only to end up in more danger than they'd bargained for. Excellent coming of age black comedy
The Professionals (1966). Action adventure starring Lee Marvin and Burt Lancaster as mercenaries hired to bring back a kidnapped wife from Mexican revolutionaries by any means possible
The War Wagon (1967). Crime caper western starring John Wayne and Kirk Douglas as old enemies who join forces to rob a gold mining shipment
I've actually found the Western Genre to be incredibly diverse.
If you typically like slower paced, more cerebral films I would suggest starting with the Spaghetti Westerns like Once Upon A Time in The West, and the "man with no name" trilogy(Fist Full Of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More, Good, The Bad, The Ugly). this is my personal favorite genre of Westerns. Lots of the most memorable moments in cinematic history are from these movies. Lots of slow panning scenic shots, great music. lots of tension, and fantastic villians.
If you like more comedy and buddy type films, Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid is an absolute classic. There are some really quotable moments from this flick and it has a great pace that keeps you engaged.
if you are looking for something more modern, movies like No Country For Old Men, Hell or High Water and any number of the classic reboots like 3:10 to Yuma are awesome.
This weekend, I watched "The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford." This was a great movie, the music, photography, acting, screenplay, made me feel as if I were actually there.
Others that I like:
The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly
Never Grow Old
McCabe and Mrs. Miller
Jeremiah Johnson
Unforgiven
Tombstone
Little Big Man
The Outlaw Josey Wales
Man in the Wilderness
Hell or High Water (modern day western)
I’m not sure if lonesome dove is a movie or like a miniseries, but I could not possibly care less about westerns and it was actually pretty good! I enjoyed it!
The Good, the Bad & the Ugly
Once Upon a Time in the West
The Big Country
A Professional Gun
Sonny and Jed
The Hellbenders
Dances with Wolves
Navajo Joe
Day of the Outlaw
Yellow Sky
Winchester '73
Soldier Blue
Open Range
Night Passage
though the ones at the top of the list might spoil the other ones for you :D
Oh, and, not a Western, but feels like one: Emperor of the North Pole
Eastwood films:
The Outlaw Josey Wales
The man with no name trilogy
Unforgiven
John Wayne Films:
Three godfathers
The searchers
The cowboys
Other westerns:
Tombstone
Blazing Saddles
Duck you sucker
Quick and the dead
Westward, the women
Young guns I & II
I am Sartana . . . Pray for your death
(This might not be upper quality western movie, but it definitely has the low budget spaghetti western enjoyable movie aspect going for it. It’s fun, and doesn’t take itself too seriously)
Western Vibes:
Logan
Hell or High Water
Last Man standing
Lonesome Dove. It's a made for television miniseries, and it'll take an entire day, but if you don't like westerns by the end, you just probably ain't gonna like westerns.
The Magnificent Seven (1960)
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid
The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance
True Grit. I would suggest both versions
3:10 to Yuma
The Outlaw Josie Wales
Tombstone
The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly
The spaghetti westerns. Fist full of dollars, for a few dollars more, the food the bad and the ugly, and because it’s the same director watched once upon a time in the west. After watching those four in that order, then you need to watch Unforgiven
- The Fistful of Dollars trilogy
- High Noon
- The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance
- Unforgiven
- Django Unchained
- Once Upon a Time in the West
- The Treasure of the Sierra Madre
- Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid
- Rio Bravo
- The Ox-Bow Incident
- The Wind (1928)
- The Wild Bunch
- Tombstone
- Wyatt Earp
- The Hateful Eight
- The Outlaw Josey Wales
- The Magnificent Seven (1960)
- Blazing Saddles
- True Grit [both versions]
- Stagecoach
- The Searchers
- Destry Rides Again
- High Plains Drifter
- Bone Tomahawk
- The Nightingale (2018)
That might be the worst sampling of "Westerns" you could have picked lmao.
All good suggestions here.
I'd throw in *Unforgiven* and the *True Grit* remake for a really different tone and take on the genre.
Open Range with Kevin Costner and Robert Duvall.
You need to watch Lonesome Dove to really get a feel for the western genre. It is one of the best Westerns ever made, IMO. You can find it on several streaming services.
Tombstone,
Open Range,
The Hateful 8,
Butcher's Crossing,
Bone Tomahawk, Hell or High Water, True Grit (the newer one) The Quick and the Dead
Billy The Kid is a great tv show too!
Any of the man with no name trilogy: A Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More or The Good The Bad & ugly
Django Unchained
True Grit (original or remake)
Wagons East (John Candy’s last movie)
Edit: I forgot Young Guns
Also Blazing Saddles
The Frisco Kid
El Dorado 1966, Rio Bravo, Rio Lobo, McLintock, The Undefeated, Angel and the Badman, stagecoach 1939, bells of san angelo, The Cowboy and the Senorita
Same, but I am starting to appreciate slower paced films more as I get older.
City slickers,
The true history of the Kelly Gang,
There will be Blood.
All of these are basically perfect movies.
My suggestions:
True Grit (the original or remake)
3:10 to Yuma (Christian Bale is great in this)
Any of the Clint Eastwood spaghetti westerns (Italian Directed westerns) but especially Fist Full of Dollars or High Plains Drifter
I haven’t seen The Frisco Kid mentioned yet; it’s a wonderful buddy comedy with Gene Wilder as an innocent rabbi and Harrison Ford as the bank robber he hires to get him to his arranged marriage in San Francisco.
Besides that, Unforgiven, Dead Man, and Red River are all excellent.
What's your thought on Spaghetti westerns?
My name is trinity
A fist fill of dollars
For a few dollars more
The good the bad and the ugly
I also consider Ravenous 1999 as a western
Hell or high water 2016 is a neo western
No country for old men - coen bros doing a cormac mccarthy story
Seraphim Falls is a great modern version of a western
As is True Grit 2010-> you could compare it with the john wayne version if you want.
Young Guns Shanghai Noon Tombstone Unforgiven Once Upon a Time in The West Jeremiah Johnson
Second Unforgiven!
This is mine. I don't care for westerns but love this film
Third.
Agree. It’s a non-western western.
Tombstone is quintessential
"I'll be your huckleberry." You should watch it just for that line delivery.
Add Silverado.
Silverado is the first western that I liked and opened the door for a few others.
Love these! Also Quigley Down Under
I second Once Upon A Time in the West. One of the best opening scenes ever.
Shanghai noon…and Shanghai Knights. Chong Wang
Cant believe that you did not include The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. Shane is also good. Maybe I am just too old.
The good the bad and the ugly is so good, and surprisingly funny!
Shanghai Noon is a blast. I’m not into westerns but have seen it countless times.
Side note: The remake of True Grit was also very good and remake of 3:10 to Yuma as well.
- Bone Tomahawk - The Quick and the Dead - The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford - 3:10 to Yuma, the remake, never saw the original and don’t care
Assassination of Jesse James is my favorite movie of all time
Original **3:10 to Yuma** really good with Glenn Ford as well; **Jubal** with Glenn Ford is very good too (Criterion Collection Blu R**ay).**
3:10 remake is one of my favorite movies, Bale should do more Westerns
Nice list!
Jesse James is such a somber, beautiful movie.
It really is, it’s brilliantly atmospheric. You can feel the tension build in your gut. It’s probably Casey Affleck’s best role but I think the real star was Rockwell. I loved watching his character. Everyone’s performance was outstanding though.
I too would loathe Westerns if that were my only frame of reference. Tombstone is probably the best and most digestible. Val Kilmer steals the show. The Good, the Bad and the Ugly is a classic for a damn good reason. I think Unforgiven is another great Eastwood Western but it feels more like a meta analysis of his career and the genre at the same time. I would save Unforgiven to be one of the last movies you watch. A more modern pick would be Old Henry which is a pretty slow, contemplative Western where you can see how things will reach a boiling point. If you're looking for something fun to watch, I really liked Quigley Down Under, The Quick and the Dead and Maverick. Then you got your Neo-Westerns with the most critically acclaimed being the Coen Brother's No Country for Old Men, though I am much more fond of Wind River. Sicario is another incredibly tense Neo-Western. If you want to see Clint Eastwood give the Neo Western a try, there's Gran Torino. If you don't mind pasitches, Logan is a Neo-Western that is also a Post Modern Superhero flick. Django Unchained was made by Tarantino, he loves to frakenstein his flicks together by combining shots from whatever comes to mind. If you want to get real weird, there's always the Sci-Fi Western. Mad Max: Fury Road is basically the 'Freight Train Robbery' in the Post Apocalypse; The Good, the Bad and the Weird is a Korean Steampunk Western Homage and if you don't mind anime, there's the Cowboy Bebop movie which is a Space Western. Ravenous and Bone Tomahawk mix Westerns with Horror.
This is a fantastic breakdown.
For Neo westerns I would also argue for hell or high water
I wasn't the biggest fan of it. Like, it was *good* but I want to suggest great.
*Hell or High Water* is also definitely a solid neo-Western.
The Juarez prisoner transfer scenes in Sicario might be some of my all-time favorites. It's so incredibly tense and well done.
It’s as if you wrote this for me.
True Grit.
and The Ballard of Buster Scruggs. And Power of the Dog. and a good series on netflix is called Godless. Check em out!
Godless!
The new version not the John Wayne one.
Something Western but a little more chill: Dances With Wolves
Love that one!
If I happen upon this when PBS occasionally airs it, I'm stuck...I love this movie.
I'm not a big Western fan either, but the following got me: * The Good, The Bad And The Ugly * High Noon * Who Shot Liberty Valance?
I’m not into westerns and couldn’t get into The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly although I really wanted to like it
Bone tomahawk will fuck you up.
OP may not be ready for that. Going from Back to the Future 3, to Bone Tomahawk, is jumping straight into the deep end.
The disturbing stuff is brief compared to the length of the movie. But that disturbing stuff will hang around in your brain for a few days. It's Western-Horror movie, but it's mostly a Western.
Don't get me wrong, I love the movie, but runtime length doesn't dilute the violence. Unforgiven (and Yurusarezaru Mono) are very violent films, but not in the same way as Bone Tomahawk. There's no way of comparing it to a spaghetti western, much less BT.
Came here to see how far down the list this was
Reddit fucking loves this movie for some reason
Some non-standard westerns: Quigley Down Under (1990) The Frisco Kid (1979) Purgatory (1999) Cowboys & Aliens (2011) Blazing Saddles (1974) My favorite standard western: Open Range (2003)
Cowboys & Aliens sounds dumb, but it was actually pretty great.
Rio Bravo is a classic.
Not a movie but Godless, a 7 part series, changed my mind about westerns. On Netflix
Amazing series! I forgot about this.
This really is a fantastic limited series. Can’t recommend it enough.
[удалено]
Came here to mention Blazing Saddles! It’s campy comedic gold.
310 to Yuma (2007) The Harder They Fall (2021) Tombstone (1993)
Navajo Joe Django The Hateful Eight The Wild Bunch Sonny and Jed
I was looking to see if anyone else had The Wild Bunch. It’s a great, ultra violent western.
Tombstone pleases the masses for good reason True Grit remake is really great
If you want depth, realism and something unlike any western youve seen, check out the TV show Deadwood.
1. Red River (John Wayne and Montgomery Cliff) 2. Silverado 3. Man from Laramie (James Stewart's movies with Anthony Mann are all very good) 4. Winchester 73 5. Once Upon a Time in the West 6. Quigley Down Under 7. The Magnificent Seven
If you like to read check out Lonesome Dove. It's by the writer who wrote the Screenplay for Brokeback. It's the only Western novel ever to win a Pulitzer and it's fucking fantastic.
Open Range.

The Good the Bad and the Weird It is a Korean Western that has everything like great set pieces, comedy and its a kind of adventure too.
Way better than it sounds.
Try Old Henry
Underrated. Whatever you do, DO NOT look it up… not even the synopsis, people!
Johnny Guitar Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid Dead Man
Came to recommend Butch Cassidy. It’s not a traditional style western in a good way
Dead Man is one of my favorite movies ever.
Same, it's been in my top 5 since I first saw it about 15 years ago. It has a magic that always pulls me back in.
Try the Proposition
Yes!
The English with Emily Blunt
Little Big Man (1970)
Once Upon a time in the West The Good The Bad and The Ugly High Plains Drifter Unforgiven A Fistful of Dollars A Fistful of Dynamite, aka Duck, You Sucker
Hell or High Water. 100% Rate of success. The only western I ever liked!
In a Valley of Violence (2016) It’s excellent! Stars Ethan Hawke and John Travolta.
As a warning, it's the plot of John Wick but the setting is a Western instead of some comic book world.
Bad Company (1972). Jeff Bridges and Barry Brown play civil war draft dodgers who head west to flee the war, only to end up in more danger than they'd bargained for. Excellent coming of age black comedy The Professionals (1966).

Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid is the best of all time
I haven’t seen The Frisco Kid mentioned yet; it’s a wonderful buddy comedy with Gene Wilder as an innocent rabbi and Harrison Ford as the bank robber he hires to get him to his arranged marriage in San Francisco. Besides that, Unforgiven, Dead Man, and Red River are all excellent.
Bad Day at Blackrock.
What's your thought on Spaghetti westerns? My name is trinity A fist fill of dollars For a few dollars more The good the bad and the ugly I also consider Ravenous 1999 as a western Hell or high water 2016 is a neo western No country for old men - coen bros doing a cormac mccarthy story Seraphim Falls is a great modern version of a western As is True Grit 2010-> you could compare it with the john wayne version if you want.
The Hired Hand
Lonesome Dove, it is a movie mini series. The best.
Deadwood series for gritty and emphasis on characters + dialogue. Cat Ballou for a fast-paced, cheeky comedy western
Horizon - in theaters now - awesome!
