- 'No Country for Old Men' (2007) With a phenomenal screenplay and similarly great direction, the Coen Brothers made the century's best Western so far in 2007, with No Country for Old Men.
- 'Hell or High Water' (2016) Hell or High Water is just as great a crime/heist movie as it is a Western, making it a superb blend of genres, and a movie that's likely to have excellent crossover appeal as a result.
- 'Bacurau' (2019) It's hard to classify Bacurau within a single genre, because it's one of those movies that feels like it might be easier to list the genres it doesn't belong to, in some ways.
- 'The Revenant' (2015) Though it might be best known as the movie that finally got Leonardo DiCaprio an Oscar win, The Revenant is much more than just that.

- Tombstone. RELEASED 1993 | AVERAGE SCORE OF 9.21 | RENT ON: PRIME VIDEO, VUDU, YOUTUBE. Is it the best film on this list? Perhaps not. However, there isn’t a film on this list (or any list) that offers more in terms of fun, excitement, and adventure.
- Shane. RELEASED 1953 | AVERAGE SCORE OF 9.12 | STREAM ON: HULU. We Wyoming folks might be partial to “Shane” with its roots in Wyoming history and its unmistakable Wyoming setting.
- True Grit. RELEASED 1969 | AVERAGE SCORE OF 9.01 | STREAM ON: NETFLIX. Millennials might prefer Jeff Bridges over John Wayne and the electrifying Hailee Steinfeld over Kim Darby.
- Unforgiven. RELEASED 1992 | AVERAGE SCORE OF 8.99 | RENT ON: PRIME VIDEO, VUDU, YOUTUBE. AUTHOR’S NOTE: I spent my entire childhood growing up in Wyoming.
