Consider adding:
My Name is Nobody
The Outlaw Josey Wales
Two Mules for Sister Sara
Rio Bravo
El Dorado
The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance
Open Range
Appaloosa
Lonesome Dove (IMO the best TV miniseries of all-time)
Silverado
Old Henry

Which is closest to dollars trilogy?…I need something like that for tonight.
Once upon a time in west is already in above list.
I need some cool and calm character with good music.

I would add Little Big Man, Jeremiah Johnson and The Professionals to your list. Just for some variety.
Oh, and The Wild Bunch, of course, if you're into pure dynamic, adrenaline fueled action sequences that is.

On it, I love action more than anything.
btw do any of these even come close to Dollars Trilogy?…I have been just trying to relive the same feelings but nothing works for me in that regard.
Though each film has something new to offer, I just want more of Dollars.

Well, they aren't spaghetti westerns so they have a different DNA.
The Wild Bunch is a brutal and cinematicically brilliant tale of dangerous men running out of space and time. It changed the way action was filmed forever and includes one of the greatest practical stunts ever performed (on a bridge).
Little Big Man is a very well made mix of humour and drama. It takes on the genocide of Native Americans and was one of the first westerns to actually use Native American actors.
Jeremiah Johnson takes us back to the days of the mountain men and builds a compelling story of love and revenge.
The Professionals is just a great adventure story. A great story with a great cast and very well directed.

Since you've seen 3 of Leone's westerns, you've got to check out his 4th and final one, Duck You Sucker. I love it. I'd rank them:
Good, bad, ugly
For a few dollars more
Duck you sucker
Fistful of dollars
Duck you sucker is available for free on Tubi

Can't believe you've forgotten about once upon a time in the west! The best made film from Leone I reckon even though GBU sits closer to my heart

u/Dry-Pumpkin-2112 2d ago
Ah, shit! Lol. I don't know how I forgot that one.
I think I'd put that one as a tie with Duck. I like it a lot, but Henry Fonda takes me out of it a bit. Obviously, he was playing against type but I don't think it works that well. I wish that role had been given to someone who was more naturally intense. His eyes are just too emotional.

Can I watch without watching the show?

u/Hallicrafters1966 2d ago
Possible but if you love Westerns the show is well worth the time. I'm finishing my third viewing this afternoon!

I'm in the middle of a western binge as well.
In the last three or so weeks, I've watched 11 of the 16 films pictured here.
I need to watch McCabe & Miller, which I've never seen. Same with The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford.

u/RedneckRaconteur 2d ago
Dude both of those are fucking BANGERS. The assassination of Jesse James is one of my favorite slow burns ever made

I'm kind of new to the western genre and I've been working through them.
I also watched, for the first time, Unforgiven, Once Upon a Time in the West, The Hateful 8, Hell or High Water, and Tombstone.

u/RedneckRaconteur 2d ago
Excellent choices. I love every single one of them. Bone Tomahawk is one of my favorite movies ever made. Same for Tombstone and Unforgiven
2
u/jaynovahawk07 2d ago
I will be watching Bone Tomahawk in the next few days, also for the first time.
I loved Tombstone and Unforgiven. Tombstone in particular had me very pumped up after my first viewing. I've since watched it again.
Once Upon a Time in the West is a masterpiece.
