That’s a remake of the epic One Upon a Time in the West
Gino Padula
2022-03-13 02:29:42 +0000 UTCHow is this classic only at 2%?!

2022-03-11 04:05:03 +0000 UTCGood Bad and The Ugly is the clear winner. Why not listed?
Gino Padula
2022-03-11 01:22:58 +0000 UTCI'm guessing younger people don't appreciate the older films or know much about them.
Sean McDonough
2022-03-02 14:00:01 +0000 UTCThe Quick And The Dead
Stephen King
2022-03-01 23:10:56 +0000 UTCMy favorite western! I loved 'The Wild Bunch' also. It's a shame they're only getting 2% of the vote.

2022-03-01 22:08:56 +0000 UTCYoung Guns? No comment lol
ron clint
2022-02-25 03:05:23 +0000 UTCI wouldn't even count Dances with Wolves as a Western. Just coz something takes place in the West doesn't make it a Western. DwW is like watching paint dry. And I'm saying this as someone who loves what the movie is about and watched it for that very reason.
Alex
2022-02-24 02:17:36 +0000 UTCFistful Of Dollars is pretty good. Eastwood is always enjoyable. Dances With Wolves is an overlong snore inducing marathon of boredom though
Mike Tocci
2022-02-22 20:37:37 +0000 UTCYoung Guns 1 and 2. Must see classics.
Jonathan Patrick
2022-02-22 03:18:22 +0000 UTCYess! High Noon is amazing! And yes that's Grace Kelly, not Gene Kelly. ;)
Scott Kerr
2022-02-21 14:17:07 +0000 UTC3:10 to Yuma is crazy good because it's actually a remake that, in my opinion, actually outdoes the original! Just my opinion.
Scott Kerr
2022-02-21 14:13:28 +0000 UTCAll those actors together in a Sam Raimi movie? What's not to like?

Neal Romanek
2022-02-21 12:51:32 +0000 UTCGood take!
Neal Romanek
2022-02-21 12:50:34 +0000 UTCThe John Ford westerns, The Searchers, Stagecoach, The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance are must-sees if you were to do a western deep-dive. And High Noon is another landmark one - with Grace Kelly!
Neal Romanek
2022-02-21 12:46:29 +0000 UTCGreat book too!
Neal Romanek
2022-02-21 12:42:02 +0000 UTCI always just want to jump to The Good, The Bad and The Ugly, which is greatest movie ever made and I will die on that hill.
Neal Romanek
2022-02-21 12:41:38 +0000 UTCSo many great movies here! How can you choose? I'm going with Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid cuz Paul Newman, Robert Redford and that amazing William Goldman screenplay (Goldman also wrote Misery and The Princess Bride)
Neal Romanek
2022-02-21 12:38:58 +0000 UTCI would go the other way. I think the theatrical cut is spot on.
Neal Romanek
2022-02-21 12:35:08 +0000 UTCa lot of western lovers dismiss it lol but you just can't go wrong with Gene Hackman!!
MIke
2022-02-21 09:47:20 +0000 UTCThat movie is good. Not even just in a guilty pleasure way.
Armchair Wizard
2022-02-21 04:53:02 +0000 UTCYep.
Alex
2022-02-21 03:31:29 +0000 UTCI saw it when it first came out in theatres. My cousin got to pick the movie that weekend and this is what she chose. I was so effing bored, I fell asleep in the theatre. I've never seen it all the way through. Every time I've tried to watch it, I get bored and turn it off.
Donna Castellano
2022-02-21 03:11:24 +0000 UTCIll probably be strung up for this but I have a guilty pleasure for Quick and the dead! >:)
MIke
2022-02-21 02:59:40 +0000 UTCIf it's Dances with Wolves please watch the extended version. The theatrical version is so cut down that it's missing alot of the emotional impact. The extended cut is very true to the book and in my eyes a masterpiece of cinema.

2022-02-21 01:28:01 +0000 UTCNo Country For Old Men
YoureMrLebowski
2022-02-21 00:28:33 +0000 UTCThe title is a mothful, ain't it? That movie is something special.
YoureMrLebowski
2022-02-21 00:26:39 +0000 UTCI didn't vote for it on this poll but if they do Butch Cassidy again on the next Western poll, I will vote for it!
Scott Kerr
2022-02-20 23:57:20 +0000 UTCI've seen all kinds of movies and I kinda have a feel on what which older movies my family and friends would enjoy. Butch Cassidy is one of those movies, still holds up after all these years. Paul Newman and Robert Redford have great chemistry and you pair that with one of the 🐐 screenwriters in William Goldman and you get a masterpiece. Even if it doesn't win a poll and get a reaction it still deserves a watch imo.

2022-02-20 20:37:08 +0000 UTCHope you guys are saving Unforgiven for after you’ve seen a handful of Westerns first. Young Guns has its place but would really encourage you to watch some of these movies from the 60’s. If you start Fistful of Dollars, I’d recommend committing to the whole Man with No Name trilogy. Some more recent Westerns I’d watch later on are Open Range, 3:10 to Yuma(2007), and True Grit(2010). The latter two are remakes and very well done.
justDRK
2022-02-20 18:42:01 +0000 UTCThe Searchers is one of the greatest westerns of all time.
Sean McDonough
2022-02-20 18:26:36 +0000 UTCLots of good choices here, but Silverado is one of my favorites. I suggest Open Range and Broken Trail too.
Jen Barnes
2022-02-20 16:14:29 +0000 UTCI found Dances with Wolves to be really boring. I watched it after watching Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman for the first time, because I got super into Native American culture after watching that but didn't like the film. I have truly no idea about good Westerns, other than shows strangely enough. but I think anything with John Wayne is probably good.
Alex
2022-02-20 15:53:17 +0000 UTCYoung Guns is a classic.
Rudy Hernandez
2022-02-20 15:22:08 +0000 UTCI’m going with fistful of dollars just in hopes you end up watching the “dollars trilogy “, other than that all of these are pretty great.
Charlie Keeler
2022-02-20 15:16:38 +0000 UTCOn the schedule!
TBR Schmitt
2022-02-20 15:13:51 +0000 UTCBased on the last Western Poll, Unforgiven was clearly going to win the next western poll so we’re just going to add it to the schedule :) -Sam
TBR Schmitt
2022-02-20 15:12:59 +0000 UTCMr&Mrs Schmitt, it's a hell of a thing watching Unforgiven.
YoureMrLebowski
2022-02-20 14:56:16 +0000 UTCThe Wild Bunch and Once Upon a Time in the West are grounbreakers of the genre, two of my all time favorites that can be viewed again and again. Im not a big John Wayne fan but I surprisingly enjoyed The Searchers and its now on my fav list too! Keep up your amazing work guys...your reactions are honest, fun, and the best of all the available "reaction" sites!
ron clint
2022-02-20 13:32:02 +0000 UTCThe Wild Bunch
Will Zamora
2022-02-20 13:13:57 +0000 UTCOnce Upon a Time in the West is the best one on here no doubt
Drzergberg
2022-02-20 12:31:25 +0000 UTCNot strictly a western but would love to see The Assassination Of Jesse James By The Coward Robert Ford on a poll
Garry L
2022-02-20 12:29:41 +0000 UTCLet's begin the Dollars Trilogy <3
Abbraccia
2022-02-20 12:13:59 +0000 UTCThis might be the only time Young Guns gets the win. Let them enjoy it now before watching all the classics. If you ski down the best slopes first, the bunny hill won’t be as fun. I know I know, the bunny hill is never fun but they new to skiing…or Westerns.
Mark M
2022-02-20 12:12:55 +0000 UTCOne of my favorite westerns is 3:10 To Yuma, the 2007 remake.
Andrew Roach
2022-02-20 11:04:23 +0000 UTCFair enough on getting the Sergio Leone train rolling, but The Wild Bunch and The Searchers are the best here
Bert Taverner
2022-02-20 10:54:27 +0000 UTCUnforgiven not making a western poll 😯😯😯😯 also ' the quick and the dead ' packed with stars DiCaprio, crowe,Sharon stone , gene Hackman to name a few I definitely recommend it
Ian
2022-02-20 10:12:18 +0000 UTCSuggestions for future polls - Stagecoach, Shane, The Man Who Shot Liberty Violence, My Darling Clementine, Man of the West, Winchester '73, Old Henry, Gunfight at the OK Corral, McCabe and Mrs Miller, Rio Bravo, Red River, Outlaw Josey Wales, Little Big Man, Destry Rides Again, The Ox Bow Incident, The Big Country, The Proposition, Hud

Richard Akhtar-Dobson
2022-02-20 09:41:39 +0000 UTCThe Searchers and The Wild Bunch seem to be universally considered at worst among the top 5 westerns of all time by film critics and directors but are getting destroyed by Young Guns in this poll. Tough crowd:)
Birdie Num Num
2022-02-20 09:29:34 +0000 UTCI'd love to see High Noon (1952, more Grace Kelly) and Unforgiven (1992) on a future poll.
Future Boy
2022-02-20 09:07:06 +0000 UTCThe Searchers. All of the Scorsese era directors worship it—with good reason I think.
Michael Soukup
2022-02-20 08:49:51 +0000 UTCI recommend Open Range. It's a great and imo very underrated movie.
Stephanie
2022-02-20 07:48:03 +0000 UTCThe Magnificent Seven (1960). Not the recent pointless remake. And if you’re up for it definitely check out the original which is Seven Samurai (1954). Those are classics and both equally amazing in my opinion
Nicole Johnson
2022-02-20 07:40:53 +0000 UTCBone Tomahawk would be amazing. They need to see the other Zahler movies, too.
iliketostayhome
2022-02-20 07:29:09 +0000 UTCI second "Bone Tomahawk".
iliketostayhome
2022-02-20 07:27:27 +0000 UTCI'm not really into westerns but The Sisters Brothers (2018) is so good. I recommend it!
Domino
2022-02-20 07:11:17 +0000 UTCOh, I wish Bone Tomahawk with Kurt Russell and Patrick Wilson was there! Anyway, quite classic line-up 🤙🏼
