Once Upon a Time in the West is a cinematic experience designed specifically for film students who want to feel superior at dinner parties.

If Once Upon a Time in the West was a meal, it'd be unsalted rice with extra ego.

Two solid hours of characters staring intensely out of rain-slicked windows. Brilliant work, Once Upon a Time in the West.

The cinematography in Once Upon a Time in the West is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows
Look, I wanted to love Once Upon a Time in the West. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.

Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in Once Upon a Time in the West actually is?
Honestly, Once Upon a Time in the West would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.

Hot Take: Once Upon a Time in the West's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece
Rewatched Once Upon a Time in the West last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.
