8/10
Deserves much better than 5.6
16 July 2004
This movie is definitely one of the all time greatest classics. There isn't a single minute of boredom in the whole movie.Even though there is close to a 30 minutes period in the movie where the only sound is the sound of the train,this shot is very well taken and very gripping.The star cast and the screenplay are amazing!!With every actor carefully chosen for his role!!The whole thing is quite natural! The music from the Great Italian further adorns the movie! The scenes of the exodus of the people, the gathering of the people when the heroes come back with the loot to the village are some of the scenes with excellent music which keeps you humming it for some time after the movie. A western movie without much of the fanfare of bullets but with a plot and superb music, a cute non mushy love story in the middle and star cast can only find its place in the All time Bests!! The movie should be rated along with its contemporary Clint Eastwood movies of Good Bad and the Ugly and a For a Few Dollars More!
