Extremely violent '60s Western with drinking and sex.April 29, 2013
It's one of the great, arrogant take-it-or-leave-it jobs in history, and by this point it is so beyond either defense or attack that I come neither to praise nor to bury it but merely to describe it.March 12, 2015

It's a traumatic poem of violence, with imagery as ambivalent as Goya's.April 29, 2013

One of the great artistic achievements of the 20th century. And a bloody awesome western to boot!April 29, 2013
It is certainly one of the best westerns ever made, and the best film of any kind to come out in 1969.
