"IGN.COM's No 1 Western of all Time"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I had not heard of this movie, but trusted IGN.com Top Westerns List enough to buy it. What a watch. A young Charles Bronson. Henry Fonda in a bad boy role. This movie had it all. Not my personal No 1 Western, but certainly a rivetting watch. Worth it to see Charles Bronsons performance alone.

The all time cult western with perfect audio and remasted images make this a must see. 10 out of 10.

"One of the BEST westerns!"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Known as one of the offensively misnamed “spaghetti westerns”; which are better than most American westerns. Once Upon a Time in the West is about as good as any western A great cast and a very good screenplay, make for excellent evenings entertainment.

"A must have western that is thoroughly enjoyable"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

There's good reason why this movie ends up in many of the ‘top movies’ lists, it simply is a masterpiece of film making. Leone's film creates a very raw and gutsy picture of the west, where a standout cast of brooding characters will unravel their mystery before you.

I highly recommend this movie to anyone who enjoys sitting back and relaxing to a moderately paced movie that is bursting with intrigue. It is not a movie that spells everything out as A-B-C right in the beginning as many foolish movies tend to, nor is it a tacky western shootem up.

If you're looking for a timeless classic then look no further, this western is as good as it gets.

"Just ok"
3 stars"

Pretty go hum really with the stars in it should have been a cracker

"...and who can forget that soundtrack-"
5 stars"

I was a teenager when this movie came out and I remember listening to “The Man With The Harmonica” as it played over and over on the radio. It was a while until I could watch the movie. A true western, the type they don't make anymore.
