One of my favourite remakes of Yojimbo. It's fun to see Leone slowly laying out the groundwork of his style. If this was made later during the decade that taut just over 90 minute run time would be tripled, everyone would have their own lengthy disgusting sweaty closeup to beautiful music. No one makes lips grosser than Italian westerns.

A Fistful of Dollars goes down as the fantastic start to the best series of westerns ever made. When Sergio Leone's excellent direction is coupled with the pure attitude of the appropiately named Wild West and the rugged and insanely cool Eastwood it's automatically the underpinnings of a winning formula. A Fistful of Dollars revitalised the seemingly ailing genre and couples some wonderful scenes with evidence of the style of filmmaking Sergio Leone was soon to become renown for. True classic.

It's rare that a remake can stand side-by-side with the original. But Yojimbo and Fistful are practically equals, at least neither one is a substitute for the other. Leone takes the material and makes it his own, while still maintaining the framework of Kurosawa's film. Comparing the two isn't a game of determining which is superior, but rather "isn't it awesome that we have both?". Yes, yes it is. Terrific filmmaking by Leone, star-making role for Eastwood, and another superb Morricone score.

Leone's first bona fide masterpiece is a simple retelling of YOJIMBO but embellished by a style that would become instantly iconic; warped perspective to make Eastwood look like a giant at times, casual brutality sweetened by understated gallows humour (DIRTY HARRY's origins can be found here), and use of newcomer Eastwood himself, who turns in a wonderfully restrained and subtle performance amid the cackling jackals of his supporting cast. All this, and bloody entertaining to boot!

Quite good with some great shots. Clint Eastwood is fantastic. Quite obviously a remake of Yojimbo, even in it's cinematography, but it's setting is different enough to make it worthwhile. Really it all depends on if Eastwood could rival Mifune's performance and, quite frankly, even if you don't think he does he comes damn, damn close.

A friend of mine in music once told me, “Never cover a song unless you think you can do just a little bit better somewhere,” and I think Leone knew he was doing something just a little bit different, in his own voice, and his own way. Clearly, Leone comes into his own with this Man Who Needs No Explanation. The joy in these films is seeing a Dude playing chess against a bunch of dudes playing Fruit Ninja - it’s a formula as old as time and just as satisfying no matter how many times you rewatch.

A Fistful of Dollars is the beginning of one of the most iconic trilogies ever and the beginning of the young Eastwood's scruffy badass with no name. Leone's directing is superb and we can see his signature style developing as he crafts one of the most defining films of the entire Western genre. Truly a wonderful retelling of Kurosawa's Yojimbo, with Clint's performance matching Mifune's stride-for-stride.

Leone's camera creates the feeling we are watching an opera, rather than a film. Through the iconic close ups and by leaving the scenes run longer so the atmospheric music score plays its run-time, the viewer gets the feeling they are observing a timeless tale, a romanticised and mythological story. Eastwood's contained anger and resentment, his self-control and powerful screen presence are an unmatched treat. Then again one can't expect anything less - he's the quintessential man after all.

The crown jewel of plagiarism. Having watched Yojimbo just a week ago, every single "borrowed" detail was too apparent. That said, it would be a great idea to shoot the same film in different periods and different locations. The soundtrack is unreal, Morricone is a genius really. The movie stutters in some action scenes and is not as chiseled as The good, the bad and the ugly; but it is highly enjoyable. Eastwood came to this world to act in these movies I think.

This low-budget happy accident managed to be the beginning of a progressively superior and iconic filmography by a master of deep-focus costume grit, and a large part of the groundwork laid for the redefinition of the Western, particularly by its ushering in of the genre's most iconic contemporary star as well as score composer.

Leone manages a few great moments with the help of spot-on production design, Morricone's legendary music, and Eastwood's swagger. However, the story is very confusing. I had to check a Wikipedia summary of the plot more than once; important lines get lost in heavy accents and/or iffy audio, and a number of the assumptions one has to make to follow the story are a hell of a stretch, at least to me.

A highly entertaining retelling of Yojimbo done the in the only other way it could work, as a Western. Eastwood plays the gun slinging tough but good guy without a name to perfection. The soundtrack fit great (as is the usual with the trilogy) and the setting is desolate and beautiful. Definitely worth a watch.

All said, this is a fairly high standard Western. It's entertaining, but after watching Yojimbo recently enough (which it's basically a remake of, albeit in Western style not Samurai) I cannot say that it stands up. Eastwood is good, and there's some really classic lines here. But the quality is fairly patchy and the mood doesnt always make an impact. The intensity seems to drop off at times. It really makes you appreciate the brilliance of Kurosawa and the depth of his directing if nothing else

An amazing flick. I'm not so interested in the comparisons to Yojimbo- good a flick as that is- because the atmosphere, the music, and Clint Eastwood's "Man With No Name" are arguably as important to this movie as the story is. Leone creates a template for a West more lawless and chaotic than any that I had seen before, and you truly get the sense that these characters live in a world without any lawful or moral boundaries. The amazing score of Ennio Morricone brings it all together.

Enjoyed the montage-affected style, the wry comedy, and the fantastic music. Eastwood was great and I appreciated the way the film did more showing than telling. I could have done without the two massacres, this film being an early example that uses the maniacal killing of many helpless people to engender either sympathy or hatred for particular characters.

Nowhere near as good as Yojimbo and not even close. Leone knows how to frame a shot and create iconic images, but he can't tell a story to save his soul! Despite my familiarity with the plot, this was at times impossible to follow. And there's a sick element here, too: YOJIMBO took a clinical and detached approach to its very necessary violence, whereas Leone crosses the line into a kind of prurient sadism that the audience is meant to enjoy. Give me Hawks, Wyler and John Wayne any day.

Despite being somewhat underdeveloped compared to his later westerns, this is still a punch in the gut from Leone.

"A Fistful of Dollars" thrives on sparse dialogue and abundant action, building tension to its climactic conclusion. Clint Eastwood's portrayal of the anti-hero, governed by his ethics rather than the conventional heroic virtues, set the stage for his ascent to stardom. This character archetype grew to be synonymous with Eastwood.

Top badass moment? The minigun. Why let historic subtleties get in the way of some Schwarzenegger-style action?

Winchester is a town in Hampshire and has nothing to do with rifles. The local pub didn’t appear to stock the locally produced San Miguel lager.

An interesting suspense movie. It definitely keeps you on your toes until the end. However it has a major flaw in my eyes for we never learn anything about the protagonist's motivations. To be honest, his actions seem to be contradictory. On a few occasions, he seems to be just an other snake in the nest, at other times he helps the helpless and he switches between the two seemingly without any reason just to further the plot. Still recommended for anyone who likes old Westerns, skip otherwise.

If you can get past the bad acting, the ketchup blood, the terrible sound effects, and the boring machismo plot, the last act is actually pretty nice. As with most Sergio Leone westerns, the movie's slow and dull setup is carried by its outsanding music: remove Ennio Morricone's work and there's not much of interest left to the first hour and a half. A classic given the genre it pioneered, though I do find people tend to overrate it and are afraid of criticizing its flaws.

It's kind of typical to call Eastwood's character "amoral", but that's not exactly right. On the surface he's just pitting these two gangs against each other to make money, but it becomes apparent that that's not really what he's doing. It's not that he has no moral code, but it's really a personal one, not one imposed by external forces, and it licenses him to engage in extreme lengths to right the balance in this town.

One of the best westerns out there. The score is amazing, the acting is great, Eastwood stands out despite not talking too much his charisma is apparent throughout. The action sequences are engaging and the the western desert landscapes are beautiful too look at. The only negatives is the characters could've used a little more development, the dubbing was rough at times, and the child was a little grating and seemingly unaware of the situation.

Stylistically magnificent. Leone loves taciturn faces—so much of the tension in this film is built with glances from one wild-eyed, grizzled visage to the next—and almost no one has a better face than Clint Eastwood. The performance he gives here is brilliant, oozing sardonic charm and determination with nothing but stares, and poncho flips, and cigar adjustments. The cinematography, the music, the setting... all unimpeachable. With some slightly-tighter editing, this would be a perfect movi

Ponderous and sadistic, awash with cynicism, its popularity escapes me. It reminded me more of a Bond film than a Western.

Under Quarantine Re-Reviews #93: Revisiting the Dollars trilogy for the next reviews, and it's still as magnificent as when I first watched it age 15. The Yojimbo comparisons will be made, but between Leone's beautiful direction, Eastwood's breakthrough role and Morricone's impeccable score, it more than holds up on its own merit.

It's not a deep film, but an excellent central performance and a terrific score drive it on.

This movie is straight up trash. Only scene I like is when he tells the 4 men to apologize to his horse. Then he gets his gun out and shoots them all. No sense of direction in this movie as they keep riding their horse and shoot each other. A lot of non nonsensical dialogue in this movie.

Definitely the classic it's known as, it's a testament to it that it kept me guessing despite its gigantic influence.

It isn't hard to see how Clint Eastwood became a household name after A Fistful of Dollars. He brings an effortless charisma not just in his screen presence, which is immense, but in his reserved sense of dialogue. Unlike older contemporary John Wayne, Eastwood brings a calm tenor, one that exudes confidence without needing to be loud or bombastic. Sergio Leone does the rest, creating more tension than most thrillers and a grander sense of scale than most Hollywood epics ever managed to achieve.

Sergio Leone's slow style is admittedly not easy to deal with. The dubbing of the film is also strangely apparent and takes one out of the story on occasion. However the beautiful landscapes and Clint Eastwood's gruff persona make this a classic western.
