to star six-shooters and shotguns in the
Wild West welcome to watchmojo.com and
today we’ll be counting down our top 10
favorite western movie gun fights please
be advised this list will contain
spoilers you’re gonna see who gets shot
number 10
catching the train 3:10 to Yuma kicking
off our list is a gunfight involving a
crippled Rancher played by Christian
Bale trying to escort a captured gang
leader to an inbound prison train
ultimately the captive Russell Crowe
develops a bit of Stockholm Syndrome
dodging advances by his own men this gun
fight is both a gripping and
unconventional chase and manages to end
with both men finding Redemption
number 9 1 vs. 4 high noon Gary Cooper
is a sheriff forced to face off against
four killers by himself this game of
cat-and-mouse was unlike anything
audience had seen in the 1950s as the
stakes rise when he is forced to fight
while saving a barn full of animals
that’s on fire as well as his own wife
who’s been taken hostage
number eight the escaped Butch Cassidy
and the Sundance Kid the specialty of
the house and it’s still moving this
gunfight showcases the infamous pair of
outlaws making a daring escape from the
Bolivian army Robert Redford Sundance
Kid gives covering fire while his
partner fetches the horses the result is
some amazing dual wielded gunplay horses
being used as shields and the kid
managing to take several soldiers down
at long-range ultimately this turned out
to be a no-win scenario but the pair
goes out in a blaze of glory
number 7 freeing the town open range
this is one of the longest gunfights
ever recorded in a Western it showcases
Kevin Costner as a former soldier that
fights alongside Robert Duvall an open
range cattleman together the two men
take on an Irish land baron who killed
their friend along with his army of men
do the one killed our friend that’s
right I shot the boy too and I enjoyed
it
dirty gunplay and trickery only goes so
far before the town decides to fight
back helping them turn the tide of the
battle it’s locked number six the okay
Corral tombstone
this is Hollywood’s most famous version
of the okay corral gunfight here the
moustached sheriff’s led by Wyatt Earp
and Doc Holliday take on the Clanton
gang doc rides shotgun while Erb points
his custom-made Colts this battle
showcases a nail-biting prelude
preceding a wink and relentless exchange
of lead oh my god unlike other Hollywood
movies one shot doesn’t always kill well
maybe it killed this guy making for one
unbelievable confrontation fight scum
man get the fighter get away number 5
the train rolls in Once Upon a Time in
the West three trench coat wearing
gunmen wait at the train station for
Charles Bronson to arrive as the train
car opens they reach for their guns the
scene is atmospheric intense just as
they’re about to leave
Bronson greets them with his harmonica
and smugly informs his would-be killers
that they’re out of their league
looks like we shot one horse
you brought two too many
number four the coffin gun
Django this is probably the most violent
gun fight scene of its day it’s still
pretty unbelievable here a
revenge-seeking drifter named Django
takes on countless masked killers the
twist is that he uses a massive belt-fed
machine gun that’s been hidden in the
coffin he’s been dragging around for the
whole movie
he kills almost everyone with it before
using his pistol to give their leader a
face full of mud totally badass
number three suicide mission the Wild
Bunch
in this scene Cowboys go on a suicide
mission to save their comrade from a
Mexican warlord you gonna leave it off
you
this sets off an intense and relentless
battle against an entire army for
countless soldiers are slaughtered as a
chain gun is used and grenades are
explode all around it’s hard to imagine
that anyone in the battle knows exactly
what they’re even shooting at even a kid
gets in on the gunplay
hi-hi-hi
number two the Mexican standoff the good
the bad and the ugly Clint Eastwood
wears his iconic poncho and sucks on a
cigar as the nameless gunman caught in a
deadly faceoff the music and the editing
says all that needs to be said as they
fight for a grave full of gold
Clint uses his Colt revolver to put
angel eyes in the ground literally
before dealing with Tuco this is the
scene that continues to define the
Mexican standoff you see in this world
has two kinds of people my friend
I was with loaded guns who take you take
number one the old dog has his day
Unforgiven taking the top spot on our
list is another defining Clint Eastwood
gunfight here he plays an old gun turned
refined pig farmer that avenges the
death of his friend at the hand of a
corrupt sheriff Clint single-handedly
puts them all down through careful aim
and a cold head proving that even in his
old frail age he’s still the most
fearsome gun in the West
