Review of The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. If you work for a living, why do you kill yourself working?

It's been a long time coming. I've been so looking forward top seeing this film after such a long break from Westerns, and I am a big Western fan, I've just been to afraid to admit it until I saw The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. This film is many things, so the best way to put it is as if it were a human body. A chase to 200,00 dollars in gold with a partnership that has more backstabbing than Benedict Arnold's evening stroll against another man who is just as good a marksman as these two are. The Good is Clint Eastwood, The Bad is Lee Van Cleef, and The Ugly is Eli Wallach. This fact is obviously shown in the beginning and the end as the screen pauses on each character and gives them their title. It's a really cool addition to the film and adds a little flair to all of the excitement. So all of that would be the body itself and the blood and organs. But what runs through the veins is what really matters. If it were just a simple race to the finish ti would be no good. Instead, this movie throws in Civil War battles, an army of two taking out five in in five minutes, and so many other amazing things that it would take me days to count them all. That's the adrenaline. This film definitely packs a big punch with it's intimidating time of three hours and four minutes, but I loved every second of it. That's the brain and the muscle of the whole film. But it's where the heart lies where this film is at it's best. The fantastic direction and acting pull this film together with excellent performances by all three leads and believable performances by all the supporters as well, this may be Sergio Leone's masterpiece. His form of direction and his ability to engross the audience in his film with all of the style that he does it in with this film is unforgettable.
The Verdict:
The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly will go down in histiory as one of the greatest Westerns ever made, and one of the best films ever made. This film is near perfect, I can't pick out any flaw to it. But if I do I'll let you know. I give The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly five cigar chomping, squinty-eyed bounty hunters out for the deal of a lifetime out of five. 5/5
