A marvelous sense of detail and spectacular effects--good fun all the way.

At its most simplified, Sucker punches its way to the top of the Italian-western mountains, but never reaches the peak of its immortalized trilogy brethren.

One of Leone's most underrated films. It's not perfect, but the great soundtrack and the wonderful direction make it one of the best Zapata Westerns ever.

The resultant mix of dreaminess, violence and politics is a bit unwieldy, but it sticks to your ribs. You'll savor pieces of Duck, You Sucker in your head much later: the mark of a work by a true voluptuary, the overspill in whose craft comes as much from enthusiasm as arrogance.

As ambitious as it is anachronistic, Duck, You Sucker demands to be read through the prism of World War II as well as 1968. Could this be the last movie in the great Italian tradition that began in 1945?

Well-plotted action, but as in most of Leone's films scenes seem to have been deleted from the American prints.

Giù la testa (Duck, You ****) directed by Sergio Leone, amazing movie, an absolute masterpiece, wonderful soundtrack ennio morricone, this is the true cinema.

Amazing performances, photography and soundtrack. The plot is somewhat convoluted, but the existential themes it touches more than make up for it.

Sans aucun doute le plus mauvais western spaghetti de Sergio Leone, pour ne pas dire le plus mauvais western spaghetti tout court malgré deux acteurs très estimables certes, surtout Rod Steiger dont le talent et la versatilité ne sont plus à démontrer. En dehors qu'il soit long comme un jour sans pain -même s'il n'est pas aussi long que d'autres oeuvres du réalisateur italien- et que les minutes comptent triple (carton plein au Scrabble), le désagrément est aussi et surtout auditif : la musique omniprésente d 'Ennio Morricone, parodique et ridicule est un véritable supplice de Tantale pour les oreilles et la cervelle. Si on ne s'est pas endormi, on se retrouve avec une migraine carabinée et si on a tenu le coup -pour se lancer un défi par exemple- c'est la même chose. Une sorte de "comédie" caricaturale clairement poussive donc, dans laquelle Sergio nous ressert les poncifs de ses obsessions vaguement ironiques qu'il recycle à l'infini, laissant ses deux acteurs cabotiner comme de jeunes chiens fous dans un jeu de quilles. Tout cela sonne terriblement faux et reste très éloigné des fulgurances et trouvailles de la trilogie du dollar. Voilà une fin de règne du film spaghetti qui nourrit directement la poubelle et rien d'autre.
