A proposito di questo titolo

In this episode of CinemaJam Versus, hosts Sebastian Gomez and Pablo Ovelez saddle up for a gun-slinging duel between two massive entries in the Western genre. We pit Sergio Leone’s 1966 masterpiece The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly against Quentin Tarantino’s 2015 dialogue-heavy The Hateful Eight.


Is Tarantino’s snow-covered mystery actually a Western, or just a theater play in disguise? Does Tuco steal the show better than Samuel L. Jackson? We break it down in six rounds of combat to see which movie is the last one standing.


In this episode, we discuss:


  • Pacing & Length: Which 3-hour movie felt like a drag and which one kept us glued to the screen?



  • Acting MVP: Why Eli Wallach’s "Tuco" might be the greatest scene-stealer in Western history compared to the cast of The Hateful Eight.



  • The Vibe Check: Why The Hateful Eight feels more like Knives Out than a traditional Western.



  • Cinematography: Comparing the epic scale of the Civil War to a claustrophobic cabin in Wyoming.



  • The Final Verdict: A landslide victory for one of these films.


Mentioned in this episode:

  • The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly (1966)

  • The Hateful Eight (2015)

  • Once Upon a Time in the West

  • Knives Out
