This sunday I was very bored, so I decided to go to blockbuster. I was looking for a movie on the outer ring of the store, which is mostly new releases. I didn't find anything worth watching. I ventured into the action section and came across "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly." Remembering how much I enjoyed the western unit, I decided to rent it. When I got home I popped it into the dvd player and stared watching. This film encasulateded alot of the classic western characteristics; it had extreme long shots, a good and bad guy, impure women, and not alot of dialouge. The movie was just under three hours and overall I liked the movie alot. The start is kind of slow but once it gets going the movie brings your attention in. The star of the film is Clint Eastwood and he does a very good job playing the good guy. The film tracks three mens' lives, the good, the bad, and the ugly. The good and ugly guy start scamming towns for money, and the bad guy is constantly looking for a certain man. All three men get involved in a treasure hunt for gold, but get sidetracked because of the American civil war. I would definatly recommend this film for anyone who also liked the western unit.
