Has anyone seen all of the Eastwood westerns? Really been binge watching them lately. Do y'all have any that are clearly above the rest and any that just need to be skipped?

If I had to rate what I've seen:
1.The Outlaw Josey Wales
2.The Good, Bad and the Ugly

These two are in another league

3. Fistful of Dollars
4. Unforgiven
5. High Plains Drifter
6. Two Mules for Sister Sarah

The rest I haven't seen. Planning on Few More Dollars next, followed by Hang em' High. What should follow? Joe Kid, hard to go wrong with anything with Duvall? Let's hear the movie board's expertise.

Unforgiven is my favorite of Eastwoods films and one of the best westerns ever made.
For me, Josey Wales and TGTBATU are tied for second in his films.
High planes drifter is another good one for me.
The only one on your list that I don't care for is Two Mules for SS.

I guess Pale Rider is missing from your list. Some think it's one of his best, it's one that I like, not love.

For a Few Dollars More is fantastic. Indio is a great villain.

They are all good but the 2 you listed first are great classics in the Western genre.

I was obsessed with Eastwood westerns as a child/teenager. I own every single Eastwood western known to man on DVD - which I really need to update.

It was so bad at one point that my cousin bought me a Brazilian/Portugese version of Two Mules for Sister Sara because it wasn't available in the US at the time for some reason.

I pretty much like all of them, but this is one I now skip. I say this, and I really like Duvall movies.

I don't remember one that I didn't enjoy. I have recently binged on John Wayne films. I like them more now then when I was a kid. That is a time when profanity and nudity were not needed to make a movie worth watching. As a matter of fact, all of the older movies were better because political correctness didn't distort how times really were portrayed.
