"The '60s was an incredible decade for the Westerns. It was an exciting time for the genre as Sergio Leone and John Ford kept delivering their masterpieces, and films like Sam Peckinpah's "The Wild Bunch' were a game changer for everyone. It's all too obvious since there were so many great films, some ended up being more popular than the rest.
Nowadays, one can call the entire western genre underrated as it's not as popular as it used to be and while we still get great films from time to time, it's not as frequent as back in the old days. There will be some overlooked gems in this list that hopefully both fans and maybe some of the non-fans of the genre will enjoy, films that have all the shootout action, and chases, as well as those who are more thoughtful and complex."
