Do you really think 2-5 are better than Vera Cruz and The Magnificent Seven?

Death Hunt is not a western.

I love this film, and the others mentioned. Yet I have to say that The Magnificent Seven is a very ordinary western IMO. You'd think "ordinary" would be impossible with that incredible cast. Even if you put them around a table and record their chatting, it would still make a good movie. But TMS was very slow and uninteresting for me. While using Kurosawa's plot, they should also have studied his pacing of the film.
That said, I guess Once Upon a Time... is the fixed number 1 on most people's lists. Red Sun and White Buffalo are the next for me.
And yes, Death Hunt is not exactly a western, but with the mountain men and settings, it certainly resembles one. Plus you get Lee Marvin and Ed Lauter, what else does a Bronson fan want?
Never be complete.
