Chicago Reader
Though ordained from the beginning, the three-way showdown that climaxes the film is tense and thoroughly astonishing.

Chicago Tribune
An improbable masterpiece -- a bizarre mixture of grandly operatic visuals, grim brutality and sordid violence that keeps wrenching you from one extreme to the other.

There are two kinds of people, my friend. Those who love Sergio Leone's The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, and those who resist the machismo and gallows humor of what is arguably the definitive spaghetti western.

Boston Globe
Gorgeously stoic art film.

A massive, many-faceted film that continues to hold up, viewing after viewing.
