Every director has to start somewhere, and when it comes to Sergio Leone, his debut was The Colossus of Rhodes. It's an old-fashioned epic set more than 2000 years ago, based around the titular bronze statue, which was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The plot, unfortunately, is a little messy, though is ostensibly about a well-known ...
Most people will likely think of A Fistful of Dollars as Sergio Leone's first movie because even though that's not technically accurate, it was undeniably his first genuinely good film. Narratively, it borrows (or steals, depending on your definition) the premise from Akira Kurosawa's Yojimbo, with both films being about a lone, highly-skilled, and...
From this point on, every Sergio Leone movie is genuinely great. Some are just greater than others, and of his final five movies, one has to, unfortunately, be considered the "least amazing." As such, it stings to give For a Few Dollars More that title. It's a truly great movie and an improvement on all fronts compared to A Fistful of Dollars, whic...
Duck, You Sucker was Sergio Leone's penultimate movie, ultimately becoming his final Western. It stands out for having a darker and sadder tone than any Western he'd previously made, though this story about two men unexpectedly getting swept up in the 1913 Mexican Revolution isn't without hints of dark humor here and there. The film is also sometim...
Easily one of the greatest Italian movies of all time, Once Upon a Time in the West is essentially impossible to fault. There are at least three Sergio Leone movies you could call perfect, which makes ordering a top three to be a challenging task. Leone at his best, was too good, with these films arguably laying waste to the very concept of ranking...
With his final movie, Sergio Leone moved away from the Western genre, which he'd explored throughout his previous five films. It might be fitting that he turned his attention towards something else, given he'd basically perfected that genre in any event. As such, Once Upon a Time in America ended up being the filmmaker's swansong and stands as a tr...
What could beat a perfect Western and a perfect crime epic for the #1 spot in Sergio Leone's filmography? His seminal film, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. It is pretty much the greatest Western of all time, and is the crown jewel of Leone's films. It's hard to think of a movie getting a whole lot better than this, with a simple story about three ...
