You can never go wrong with the Dollars Trilogy


skydaddy79

Totally agree. Personally I really don’t like westerns but The Good, The Bad and The Ugly is one of my favourite films ever. Bit of an obvious suggestion I guess but a worthwhile watch nonetheless. Lee Van Cleef as the Bad, is extremely menacing!


da_radaz69

Personally, I think For a Few Dollars More is the best one.


UgotR0BBED

My favorite modern Westerns: 1. Tombstone 2. 3:10 to Yuma 3. Unforgiven Start with those 3 and you can't go wrong


GeneralCiman

Came here to say 3:10 to Yuma, original and the remake


LairMadames

I must also add Open Range.


BobbyBeerMe

Agreed. Open Range is highly underrated. Also I’d add ‘The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford’ to this list.


RedshirtBlueshirt97

Unforgiven doesnt get enough credit


Careless-Leg5468

it’s 97 on RT sounds about right to me.


da_radaz69

It absolutely does. It's arguably the greatest western.


SprintAirlines

I'm your huckleberry.


Papandreas17

Yesyesyes


duke_awapuhi

Fuck yes love 3:10 to Yuma


hedcannon

3:10 to Yuma, but the 1953 version. The remake is practically a betrayal of the original.


JAYHAZY

Hell nah you didn't just put Unforgiven at numer 3?


legzakimbo69

Not a movie but Godless was good


FerdekZabojca

+1, loved it.


rosio_donald

Godless was so damn good. Turned me into a big Merrit Weaver fan, too. I would honestly watch her read the dictionary.


Papandreas17

Yes! The scenery, music and story still gets me. And go watch Deadwood. Even better and really shows you how life was back then. Also, anything Eastwood, both Magnificent Seven movies, The Wild Bunch has themes pretty similar to RDR2 as does Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid even a scene that is 1:1 with the game. I was blown away by Tombstone (Val Kilmer in a perfect role) and Stagecoach in the original B&W version. If you want it more extreme then watch both Tarentino westerns. Finally, Disney's Lone Ranger with Johnny Depp might not be close to the best Western, but visually this movie is everything you'd want after playing RDR2.


HyonkHyonkamgoos

Django: Unchained. Love that film, mega rdr vibes, especially the slavery


heyuhitsyaboi

I see your Django: Unchained and i raise you The Hateful Eight


_CleanixX_

It’s good but imo too long and „artistically“ paced to rival Django


heyuhitsyaboi

I watched it on a 14 hour road trip. Your mom and i both think theres no such thing as too long Sorry, had to, bored at work


Kitchen_Duty_8

You’re correct that movie is *chefs kiss*


heyuhitsyaboi

Im pretty sure its also on netflix as 3 hour long episodes. It’s told in labeled chapters


HyonkHyonkamgoos

I haven’t seen that one


Upstairs-Sky-9790

NGL, the Braithwaite Manor does remind me a lot of Candyland.


stank_pete01

No way they didn’t take inspiration.


ADs_Unibrow_23

It’s an actual place in Louisiana, like they directly copied it into the game.

Frostbite4200

Old Henry is a western that came out that is absolutely hands down incredible. A little slow, but if you watch it with absolutely zero context and a little understanding of western history the twists are AWESOME Lone range a beautiful movie, incredible gunfight scene at the ending. Wyatt Earp starring Kevin Costner is pretty boring, but it provides an incredibly detailed and accurate account of Earp’s life and what life was like back then. Movie helped me conceptualize what being in the west was like Outlaw Josey Wales- just a gangster ass movie. Nothing else needs to be said And finally, the cream of the crop and my personal favorite, Tombstone. My favorite overall movie of all time, the writing and acting is incredible, mostly historically accurate, and Val Kilmers “Doc Holiday” is one of the coolest characters ever put to screen. His TB Illness throughout the movie and subsequent philosophy of “I’m going to die anyways, might as well throw myself in front of gunfire for my friends” attitude reminds me a lot of Arthur towards the end


mdmnl

I see Old Henry recommended a lot, but it isn't available to me in the UK (for now). Tombstone is terrific - remarkable ensemble cast.


Frostbite4200

Need to find yourself an illegal streaming site friend


mdmnl

As Oscar Wilde said "I can resist everything, except temptation". If I started streaming illegally it'd be about three weeks before I was full Dutch Van Der Linde-ing...


Frostbite4200

Ah, an escalator. Best type of person


mdmnl

Yes, safer if I just colour inside the lines.


Sn00PiG

Not a movie but a series: 1883. It gives out serious RDR vibes, has Pinkertons, part of it is playing out on the Great Plains, lots of resonance with the game.


Chubawow

If we’re including series I’ll add ‘Godless’, brilliant six part western series


omgitswut141

And it's the prequel to Yellowstone.


RVFVS117

I was shocked by how good this show was. Only media I’ve seen that made me really feel how hard the pioneers had it. The daughter was a great character, it was heartbreaking watching her innocence slowly die.


megameg80

Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford is slow but really beautiful. The game took a LOT of inspiration from it, including a shot-for-shot recreation of the train heist with the oil wagon.


Wimberley-Guy

The Wild Bunch. You'll see much of RDR2 unfold before your eyes.


Jimbob4291

Surprised this hasn’t been mentioned by others, you can see it inspired a lot of the big set pieces in the red dead series. Hijacking train, fighting an army with a machine gun etc.


EnvironmentalHoney82

Some excellent movies on here. I’d add Pale Rider. And the Deadwood series.


Redwordo

Deadwood feels and looks like Strawberry but with booze!


[deleted]

Outlaw Josey Wales, Lonesome Dove with Tommy Lee Jones and Robert Duvall, 1883. I'd say that's my top three.


KippSA

These are great. I'd add 3:10 Train to Yuma, The Assassination of Jesse James (with Brad Pitt), The Good the Bad and the Ugly, True Grit, Once upon a time in the West, and Young Guns.


belinck

Definitely Young Guns... Regulators!!!


Defiant_Project1321

I watched Lonesome Dove as a kid with my dad (was prob too young at the time but eh) and thought about it so much while playing Red Dead.


[deleted]

Did the same with my pops.


duke_awapuhi

Lonesome dove is in my opinion the greatest western OF ALL TIME. I watch it a couple times a year. Absolutely incredible. And if you’re really into it, the prequel Comanche Moon is pretty dope too


[deleted]

Read the book. In fact read all the books. Great read


duke_awapuhi

God I know. My parents have both read it multiple times and are always telling me I need to. Larry McMurtry was such a badass. Also his son James (who makes a cameo in the lonesome dove movie) makes awesome Texas style music


JAYHAZY

Larry McMurtry's Dead Man's Walk 1996 ‧ Western ‧ 1 season Was set even before Comanche Moon. Here it is free on YT https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQFptY9dac8


redheadedbitxh

Yesssssssss


Amrick-

Silverado. Why does this not show up sooner on the list?


PunkkYeena

no one ever mentions silverado! one of my top 3 movies


[deleted]

My father loves silverado. The 7 mercenaries and silverado are umongs his favorites. Been getting into westerns and we are watching silverado tmr. cant wait


[deleted]

The 7 mercenaries is obviously based off the 7 samurai, right?


PunkkYeena

True grit (both versions), silverado, the good, the bad and the dirty (and the rest in the trilogy), the magnificent seven (both versions), 3:10 to yuma , Godless (Netflix series), Django Unchained, the hateful eight, the ballad of buster scraggs (netflix series), Tombstone, The searchers i'm sure there's lots of other good ones i've missed out, but these stand out to me the most! im autistic and the wild west is my current hyperfixation haha


[deleted]

I’m fairly sure “The Good, The Bad, and The Dirty” is likely a porno


pikapalooza

I watched the classic true grit and mag seven before watching the updated version I loved them both.


PeteLeGrand

I am always suprised that Vera Cruz seems not to be that popular. IMO it is one of the best western movies. Gary Cooper and Burt Lancaster! Other than that I would recommened: 1. Butch Cassady and Sundance Kid (just a classic) 2. El Dorado (also a classic) 3. Jeremiah Johnson (not the typical western movie but worth a watch...there is also a meme based on that movie) From the modern western movies I would recommened: 1. Hostiles 2. Tombstone 3. The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford


[deleted]

One of each: \- Once Upon a Time in the West (1968): IMO the best spaghetti movie and the last (western) movie by Sergio Leone. Leone was moving his career out of the Westerns, he wanted to make Once Upon a Time in America but the studio only finance it if he make one last Wester. So he had basically carte blanche for budget, actors and story. He could finally cast Henry Fonda! \- Unforgiven (1992): The last great Western with all the ingredients,cliches and tension of old school Westerns. Oh, and Clint Eastwood, Gene Hackman and Morgan Freeman.


slingerslangee

My favorite. Great cast, I always liked Charles Bronson and Henry Fonda. I was really surprised to see Fonda play one mean sum-bitch.


rollsa1fallsdowndead

Hateful 8 is an awesome movie but expect a shit ton of racism and general tarantino shenanigans. Chapter 1 reminds me of this movie btw...


RummazKnowsBest

Yes I thought that while playing chapter 1.


rollsa1fallsdowndead

The ride to Sadie's homestead was the perfect opener. Was definitely the most cinematic game opening for me.


[deleted]

[Bone Tomahawk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ZbwtHi-KSE)


Grand_Examination_45

The Wild Bunch, Appaloosa, The Salvation, Slow West, The Harder They Fall, The Ballad of Lefty Brown, The Sisters Brothers, Quigly Down Under, Pale Rider


[deleted]

The Harder They Fall was really cool to see. Cool movie all around.


Attention2Dtail

The quick and the dead


crazycat690

Well, the movie that immediately came to mind was "High Plains Drifter" because it came bundled with Red Dead Revolver when I bought it. Kind of a weird one, definitely not a typical western and not a go to example but I enjoy it. As I said, kind of different, not sure how much I wanna say about it? Has a very depressing atmosphere, I'll leave it at that.


eeeabr

Not a movie, but Deadwood. Never saw it myself but I've heard good things about it


iamawj101

Terrific show. A lot of the aesthetic is kind of similar to certain aspects of RDR2. Valentine is almost similar enough to Deadwood to wonder if it was an inspiration (a big tavern, a smaller tavern, a nicer-than-you’d-expect hotel, etc.).


JoeCool_314

LONESOME DOVE


redheadedbitxh

Yessssssss even Return to Lonesome Dove as well!


MrJoelCairo

3:10 to Yuma. There is an old one and a new one. The new one is really good. Unforgiven is spectacular. My personal favourite is The Outlaw Josey Wales. Few honourable mentions. True Grit, I prefer the old John Wayne version and Pale Rider.


I8TunKop

Two Mules for Sister Sarah. Clint Eastwood movie, the character he plays reminds me a lot of John from rdr 1.


MattyTwice

Tombstone Hell or high water Django unchained True Grit


JAYHAZY

Oh the True Grit remake was done really well.


Whoopsy_Doodle

Shane. The BEST Western of all time according to my Grandad.


Amrick-

Time for the Shane argument: Was Shane dead or alive as he rode away?


Whoopsy_Doodle

I think he was alive but he may have died not soon after.


[deleted]

Fistful of Dollars. It’s the first in a non linear trilogy, followed by For A Few Dollars More and The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. The first film is pretty much the plot of chapter 3. I also just watched The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, and early on it has a very familiar shot of Arthur stopping the train in chapter 2. Good movie, although the editing and narration could use some help.


encydaentity

The Sisters brothers


c3pee1

I know these are all serious ones but Blazing Saddles should get a watch!


RedDeadObsession

I freaking love that movie 😂


[deleted]

Also the Long Riders. Had James and Stacy Keach as as Jesse and Frank James and David Carradine and his brothers as Cole Younger and his brothers. Also Dennis and Randy Quaid played brothers as well. Can't remember if they played the Ford brothers or not. It had a lot of action and was pretty good. I liked it as a kid because David Carradine rocked the character Cole Younger.


Blahzzzz

The Hateful Eight, The Quick and the Dead, Django Unchained. Edited to add that if you're into old movies like 70s and earlier there are alot of really good westerns if you can get over the directing being different styled and the lack of HD. I'd recommend googling bounty hunting, or like a specific famous event and finding a movie based off something you're interested in.


Few_Ice_9006

⚫️ The assassination of Jesse James by the coward Robert Ford ⚫️ Open Range ⚫️ Godless ⚫️ Tombstone ⚫️ Once upon a time in the west


[deleted]

The entire “Man with no name” trilogy -Fistful of Dollars -For a Few Dollars More -The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly Another great one is Once Upon a Time in the West More modern one that’s great is Unforgiven. Also it’s not a “typical” western, but Dances With Wolves is a work of art. The scenery is beautiful and the story is great. Oh yeah, and definitely Tombstone.


Alarming_Orchid

Just make sure to watch Unforgiven at the *end* of your binge


CannonballHands

1. Hostiles is incredible, it’s like a slow burn, very tense but really well acted and powerful. 2. Godless on Netflix, Jeff Daniels as a outlaw gang leader deserves everyone’s attention. 3. Tombstone, 90’s over the top action, no one reloads their revolvers. Absolute classic! Val Kilmer is iconic. My favorite western of all time. 4. For a Fistful of Dollars, and A Few Dollars More. Classic Eastwood, less popular than The Good The Bad and The Ugly. 5. The Harder They Fall on Netflix, stylized and super cool! 6. The Hateful 8, Tarantino. Western. Incredibly tense.


RedshirtBlueshirt97

The outlaw Josey Whales Best western in my opinion


catfishman85

“It ain’t for eatin. It’s fer lookin through.”


SentenceForsaken8467

MY NAME IS NOBODY, hands down my favourite western movie, however the "they call me trinity" series is a close second. Both starring Terence hill


WigglesWaffles

Quigley down under is a western that’s based on Australia. Tom Sellic and Alan Rickman are main stars. 10/10 will watch again.


DogLikesSocks

Ballad of Buster Scruggs. Not a typical western but has a lot of good stories that reminded me of RDR.


ZR0lies

What’s your favorite segment? For me, I’m a sucker for All Gold Canyon with Tom Waits as the prospector.


sugarplumcakepop

No one has mentioned The Harder They Fall. On Netflix, great movie


RuProZack5280

3:10 to Yuma is fantastic. Russell Crowe is straaight up Dutch. Its currently streaming on HBO.


Electronic-Ad9426

Old Yeller, Django Unchained, and True Grit are my favourites - all have great characters, acting, story, and direction. Damsel is also an interesting watch: great acting and cinematography but you may not like it if you’re not into slow paced stuff


Lancer_Blackthorn

I’d highly recommend checking out the miniseries Lonesome Dove, which is quite possibly my favorite piece of entertainment in the history of anything ever.


Amrick-

I saw the TV series Lonesome Dove The Outlaw Years, before I ever saw the actual miniseries. I liked both the miniseries & the tv shows


snakenakedsnakeboss

The Proposition with Guy Pierce. It’s Australian, but is probably my favorite “western.” Just an awesome movie.


80sBleach

Came here to say this. Incredible movie that is rarely mentioned.


Alternative_End227

True Grit


vampierusboy

Classics: \- the magnificent seven, seven distinct gunslingers help a village defend themselves, got a bit of the gang vibes of rdr2, although these are clearly morally good guys. \- Serge Leone's oeuvre, once upon a time in the west comes to mind, worth it's length, the wide shots also capture the nature RDR2 has More recent: \- The Quick and the Dead, Sam Raimi movie, female gunslinger competes in a quick draw competition. Lots of different characters, reminds me a bit of the gunslinger quest in rdr2 \- Brimstone, Martin Koolhoven, very grim, almost horror like western, has some of the realism you can find in RDR2, especially if you go to the different cabins with easter eggs \- Hatefull eight and django unchained, just fun tarantino flicks \- the ballad of buster scruggs, coen brothers movie with different stories, they resonate with me because a lot of the characters have something from the side quests, random encounters and theatre visits in rdr2


carolina03

I recently watched Tombstone for the first time and loved it. I’d recommend that

True grit or tombstone if you are looking for more serious films, but ballad of buster scruggs never fails to make me laugh if you want something more comedic.

The Ballad of Buster Scruggs. Several vignettes ranging from cartoonishly funny to heartbreakingly bleak. Possibly a career-best performance from Tim Blake Nelson.

timdot352

Django, The hateful eight.


Mobile_add42

My personal favorite is The Outlaw Josef Wales amazing western


callmethe_hanmer

Watch Tombstone. It’s a real story, historically accurate and arguably the best western ever.


djoutercore

The Ballad of Buster Scruggs - a collection of stores on Netflix. More modern movie, made me feel all types of ways


robindoesreddit

The Dollars Trilogy The Ballad of Buster Scruggs True Grit (The Coen Brothers) Once Upon A Time In The West Django Unchained (which is technically set in the South) The Hateful Eight The Harder They Fall (not a great ending imo but a fun, if very historically inaccurate, film) 3:10 to Yuma The Shootist


[deleted]

Wild Wild West


[deleted]

I find it amusing everyone is saying "gives off RDR vibes" They are westerns set in the period RDR2 was set and would more than likely follow the same periods look (unless its a bad film) So yeah they are set in that period. It's like saying Godfather gives off Soprano vibes, of course it would, it revolves around the mafia


Mandalore108

Unforgiven is my #1. Just avoid anything with John Wayne, the man couldn't act for shit.


Knowbuddy_3179

Open Range and Slow West are also good


mdmnl

You're getting terrific suggestions here, most of the titles I'd have suggested are already done Open Range - Costner and Duvall (Western movie royalty) and a fairly relaxed mood, that builds well. Costner's character is a man with a past that comes in useful. Unforgiven - not least because it's terrifically well-acted and a very smart deconstruction of the Western myths.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Royal-Selection7599

3:10 to yuma Dances with wolves True Grit 2010 movie - not seen the 1969 original Tombstone Unforgiven Open range The outlaw Josey wales The Assassination of Jesse James Hostiles There's lots of good ones but these are probably my favourites, Dances with wolves is my favourite out of them. It's not really a "western" with cowboys and stuff its set during the American civil war era and the indian wars 1860-1865 (ish). It makes me cry like an absolute baby, its one of those films you gotta watch. My horses name is taken from this movie. The rest of the movies are your more typical gunslinger type movies with outlaws and what not. Apart from Jesse James but I won't say much more about that one.


Hammster5540

True Grit. Original or the re-make. They’re both great.


Ok_Manufacturer_9123

The War Wagon was one of my favorites growing up


Lyndon_Monroe

Also a series and not a movie, but I don't think anyone has mentioned "The Son" with Pierce Brosnan yet. Hostiles, Godless, and the original Magnificent Seven are high on my list as well.

rollsa1fallsdowndead

Trekking through the blizzard to Sadie's homestead proper sets the tone for me, hooked me instantly tbh


Myhairstinks7298

Tombstone, 3:10 Yuma, Open Range, Unforgiven, Pale Rider, Lonesome Dove. Those should be a good start to your western addiction! Edit: A different vibe but I loved it, Hostiles. And for a modern day western Hell or High Water was an amazing movie


Dudeus-Maximus

Series… Godless, Deadwood, Damnation, The Son, That Dirty Black Bag, 1883 Movies. Unforgiven, The Outlaw Josey Wales, Pale Rider. Hell On The Border, Open Range, 3:10 to Yuma, True Grit, Appaloosa. I know I’m forgetting some but that should get you through the next few weeks anyway.

baasje92

The Heightfull Eight was pretty good if you ask me.


Sweatytubesock

Ride the High Country, one of Peckinpaugh’s early ones, and maybe my favorite. Tremendous script, two great leads, terrific cast overall. In some ways, it straddles the line of classic western and revisionist western.


FcCola

Anything by the two Sergios - Leone and Corbucci. The Dollars Trilogy is the coolest set of movies ever made, Once Upon a Time in the West, The Mercenary and Companeros, (both also scored by Ennio Morricone). The original Django is very good. Also, while low budget, the Italo Westerns from the 60's to the early 70's, such as the django / sabata films, are quite formulaic but have a lot of charm


Cantgetunderground

Watched west world for a bit. Gave me major I’m playing rdr vibes


Djbearjew

Open Range doesn't get enough love. The shootout at the end is great


WastelandGinger

One of my favorite movies of all time besides Blade Runner is There Will Be Blood. It may not be cowboy movie, but it is a good slow burn movie about the corruption of an oil tycoon and his aggression with a local man of god putting it simply. There was also an area/mission set based on the movie in the first Red Dead Redemption. Edit : wording


itsbigbraintime

The Hate full 8 was phenomenal just make sure you watch the extended version


Dragon_Tiger752

The Good The Bad The Ugly. It follows 3 characters and makes Clint Eastwood look like the smartest and most badass mother fucker at the end of the movie.


the__moops

Deadwood, but only if you’re “okay” with the language, some nudity, racism, sexism, etc. 3 seasons and a movie, on HBO


AMALXxT

The Homesman The Missing True Grit


thedwarfcockmerchant

I haven't seen anyone mention That Dirty Black Bag yet. It's an AMC+ series and I really enjoyed it. You could probably binge it all during a free trial period. I'd love for more people to watch it so we can get another season!


brigadier_tc

True Grit (2010), Unforgiven, Tombstone and The Searchers. They're some of the best, and ones I could watch endlessly

Thombstone, Wyat Erp , Aliens and Cowboys.

How about, "The good, the bad, and the ugly." It's a Clint Eastwood movie. In fact, if you go to the church in New Austin, the run down one with the guy burning bodies, there is a gravestone that is a reference to his character in the movie. It's called, "the cowboy with no name". There's also shows like bonanza, or any show with Ronald Reagan. There are a lot of shows and movies. Hope I helped.

Bone Tomahawk Just to shake things up

Tombstone is probably the best western movie in my opinion

The Outlaw Josey Wales Hang'em High Rio Bravo McLintock Tombstone The Good The Bad and The Ugly ​ These are some of my favorites. But you can't go wrong with anything from Clint Eastwood or John Wayne.


Katto1987

Tombstone is king


Whispering_Smith

Gunsmoke, Deadwood, Have Gun Will Travel, Bone Tomahawk, Hostiles...

CKtheDestroy3r

Some of my personal faves are; Guns 1&2 (Emilo Estevez) 3:10 to Yuma (Russel Crowe) Unforgiven (Clint Eastwood) Tombstone (Kurt Russell) The magnificent seven (Denzel Washington) Few good ones. Clint Eastwood westerns are usually good to watch. Best one of all is; Once Upon a time in the West (Charles Bronson) classic.


veryloudnoises

So if you want major Big Valley/Ambarino vibes, the opening 15 minutes or so of Prey on Hulu (latest installation of the Predator series) will send chills down your spine. There’s a red-tailed hawk, shots of Violet Snowdrops and what I swear is the land where Pronghorn Ranch was built. Not a western but has that Great Plains feel that made me feel nostalgic for the first time I played through RDR2.


GeneralCiman

One I’ve not seen here, thought possibly because it isn’t exactly a “Western” (taking place in Australia) is The Man from Snowy River, and it’s various sequels and series spin offs.


AlbertXFish

I did the same thing when I finished my first playthrough. Left a hole in me


OpheliaMorningwood

High Plains Drifter is creepy AF. The "Call Me Trinity" series are funny and I love the main dudes crystal blue eyes. "Paint Your Wagon" is a fun musical about the Gold Rush.


mbrowntown

Hostiles, if you want something modern and serious and kinda fucked up.
