The Man with No Name Trilogy

 (1964-1966)

The Man with No Name Trilogy Blu-ray offers solid video and great audio in this excellent Blu-ray release

'A Fistful of Dollars' - A mysterious gunman has just arrived in San Miguel, a grim, dusty border town where two rival bands of smugglers are terrorizing the impoverished citizens. A master of the "quick-draw," the stranger soon receives offers of employment from each gang. But his loyalty cannot be bought; he accepts both jobs…and sets in motion a plan to destroy both groups of criminals, pitting one against the other in a series of brilliantly orchestrated set-ups, showdowns and deadly confrontations.

'For a Few Dollars More' - Eastwood is a keen-eyed, quick-witted bounty hunter on the bloody trail of Indio, the territory's most treacherous bandit. But his ruthless rival, Colonel Mortimer, is determined to bring Indio in first...dead or alive! Failing to capture their prey—or eliminate each other—the two are left with only one option: team up, or face certain death at the hands of Indio and his band of murderous outlaws.

'The Good, the Bad and the Ugly' - A cashbox containing $200,000, that was stolen and hidden in an unmarked grave, is the focus of three men: two criminals and a stranger.

The Man with No Name Trilogy Blu-ray, Video Quality

  3.5 of 5

Okay, so there's some good news and some bad news (but, thankfully, no outright ugly news). First, the bad. While some were hoping for a new re-master of The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, MGM has—not unexpectedly—stuck with the same transfer that was used on the 2009 stand-alone Blu-ray release of the film. And this transfer didn't exactly win over the hearts of videophiles. Based on a 2002 restoration and originally engineered for a subsequent DVD release, the transfer exhibits issues that wouldn't be as apparent in standard definition, but definitely show up in 1080p. Edge enhancement is frequently noticeable—forming sometimes white, sometimes black haloes around hard lines—and the overuse of digital noise reduction often results in waxy facial textures and an artificial diminishing of the film's grain structure. So, no, the transfer isn't ideal, but it is an improvement in terms of color and depth, with dusty Technicolor hues and solid black levels.

The good news is that both A Fistful of Dollars and A Few Dollars More look much better. There are still some small issues—Fistful appears to be slightly cropped, and some lines and textures do seem unnaturally edgy—but both films look less obviously tampered with and more naturally filmic. Visually, Fistful is the weaker of the two, with a softer image, but this seems due to the film's low-budget origins and slightly off focus pulling rather than a defect in the transfer process. Still, the upgrade in picture quality is definitely appreciable. The real gem here, image-wise, is For A Few Dollars More, which looks quite nice in high definition, with strong color and a more refined sense of clarity. There are white specks and some minor print damage present in all three films, but nothing too off-putting. Likewise, the films sit comfortably on three BD-50 GB discs, and there really aren't any overly apparent compression-related distractions. Could The Man With No Name trilogy look better? Absolutely. Will it? Probably not for some time to come. I, for one, am definitely retiring my DVD copies.

For those keeping score, I'd give A Fistful of Dollars a 3.5/5, For A Few Dollars More a solid 4/5, and The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly a 3/5.

Also note that screenshots 2 and 5-10 are from Fistful, 1,3, and 11-15 are from A Few Dollars More, and 4 and 16-20 are from The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.


The Man with No Name Trilogy Blu-ray, Audio Quality

  4.0 of 5

The original mono stems for each film have been expanded here into capable DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 surround mixes. Personally, I'd be fine with lossless versions of the mono tracks, but I can understand the insistence on wanting to fill out the soundfield. You'll hear horses galloping between channels, gunfire ricocheting from all sides, and the occasional bleeding of place-establishing ambience, like saloon chatter and various outdoorsy noises. That said, this attempt to make the films more immersive isn't always successful. There are times when the effects panned into the rear speakers sound clumsy, directionally inaccurate, or simply out of place (i.e., voices coming from the left when, visually, it seems they should be heard from the right). Thankfully, this doesn't happen too frequently. Overall, I'm happy with all of these tracks, which, surround sound aside, seem like accurate representations of the original audio, warts and all. All three films were completely dubbed in post- production, and the ADR work from many of the bit players is often laughably bad. Still, dialogue is balanced well and is usually easy to understand, even if it doesn't always lip-sync perfectly. The biggest benefit in the upgrade to lossless audio can be heard in Ennio Morricone's iconic scores, which were radical departures from the orchestral arrangements of most westerns. If you're cool with the tinny quality of the high-end, the music sounds fantastic, a mix of bright Stratocaster guitar tones, mouth harp, whistling, clip-clop percussion, and unintelligible chanting. The audio gets strong 4/5's across the board.
