Amazon.com: Sergio Leone's trilogy of operatic spaghetti Westerns with Clint Eastwood made the former TV star into an international sensation as the scraggly, silent Man with No Name, a wandering rogue with a scheming mind and a sense of humor drier than the dusty, wind-scoured desert. With A Fistful of Dollars, a blatant rip-off of Kurosawa's cynical samurai hit Yojimbo, Leone transforms the Western hero into a crafty mercenary. The follow-up, For a Few Dollars More, teams Eastwood up in an uneasy alliance with Lee Van Cleef in a tale of revenge, but the masterpiece of the set is The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, an epic scramble for buried gold set against the violence of the Civil War. In this film good is a relative term as three criminals make a series of tenuous partnerships broken in double-crosses and betrayals in Leone's epic vision of the American southwest as endless deserts and clapboard towns infested with gunmen. This was a new kind of Western: cynical, violent, stylish, and austere. Eastwood's rough face and squinting eyes fill the widescreen frame in massive close-ups while Leone stages action in bold compositions on empty streets and stark landscapes. The guns ring out in cartoonish exaggeration, and the music, an eclectic, electric mix of buzzing guitar, human voice, and harmonica by Ennio Morricone, sets the whole thing in a world pitched between myth and modernity. Leone's shot-in-Spain trilogy ushered in a flood of Italian spaghetti Westerns, but none hold a candle to Leone's stylish classics. --Sean Axmaker

These are some nice classic movies to watch. There are limited features on the DVD, but that is to be expected based on the age of the movies.

this is a great box set to own for all western lovers. each movie is even better than the last. even though the movies are long the talking parts are fun to watch and are just as note worthy as the gun slinging a** kicken parts :)

If you love his other westerns, you should love these too. I've been a fan of Clint's westerns for a long time and got tired of waiting for the tv stations to decide to play them. I think the price has even went down since I ordered this set. I'm not a film critic but I know what I like. These movies are classics and I love to watch them.

I am not one for westerns but out of boredom and luck I was able to watch all three of these movies in the same day. I was baffled, dumbstruck at how great these movies were, they had action and always had me thinking of what the characters were thinking. Anyways I now prefer this over Star Wars.

I bought this set of Sergio Leone's "The Man With No Name" because I couldn't wait for the films to all be released on blu ray. These are great movies but this review is based on the product. This set was released in 1999 when the dvd format was brand new to the scene. Now with upscaling dvd players with 1080P HDMI support, one can really see how bad the transfers of the early DVD's actually were. They are straight up right up there with VHS quality. They did re-release the films and they were remastered ... Read More
