Pretty much. The Ugly is boring with all those large scale army battles.

FAFDM is still better than TGTBATU.

reply

better story? yes
better music? yes
better acting? well, debatable. both movies have good acting. although towards the end of FAFDM i think Gian Maria Volonté started overacting as el Indio.. especially in the night scene after they let Manco and Mortimer get away. although his total performance was good. Just that one scene always sticks out to me as being overacted, Eli Wallach's is the best performance between these two movies, imo.

overall, yes. For a Few Dollars More is the better movie, to me

Now we start

I don't know, I find For a Few Dollars More an easier watch with the shorter runtime and the smaller emphasis on epic battles yet, I find the characters more intriguing in The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.

All three are classics but FAFDM is definitely my favorite.
The pacing is outstanding.
The score is pitch perfect. Morricone's best IMHO. The locket theme is haunting and beautiful.
The story is tightly written and develops quicker than TGTBATU.
Also, the villain has an actual backstory where as Angel Eyes was left largely undeveloped.
