    As a kid growing up in the 70s and 80s having a Terence Hill (often with Bud Spencer as well) movie on TV was always a highlight of the weekend. While most of those movies didn't age very gracefully, this one stands out and is still very enjoyable after all these years. Although ...( read more)it does contain the same kind of slapstick scenes Hill is known for and is probably his funniest movie (at least in the hilariously dubbed German version), it is also a deeply melancholic and serious Western. The story, after an idea by Spaghetti-Western-maestro Sergio Leone whose style is clearly visible, tells of an ambitious young gunmen following his idol, gunslinger legend Henry Fonda to take over his crown and make sure he is remembered as a hero. It's their faces that last long after the movie ended: Hill's optimistic, mischievous blinking and Fonda's sad yet merciless smile. How "Nobody" gets his hero to go out with a bang, taking on the Wild Bunch of 150 riders is just awesome. What binds the movie together is Ennio Morricone's most beautiful and catchy soundtrack score.

    Weird Western Comedy with Italian star Terence Hill teaming up with American star Henry Fonda. This unlikely pair exchange their own wisdom. The dialogue and action is very well done. The musical score is a real joy to hear. The Sergio Leone direction and cinematography is not to...( read more) be missed. Don't expect anything serious though, "Nobody" (played by Terence Hill) is the clown of the Spaghetti West, who will take the baddies by surprise and teach them a thing or two about good manners. Hilarious. I loved it.

    Tonino Valerii gets the credit of directing this great western comedy, however some credit is also due to Sergio Leone for providing the idea.

    The story is a good one, despite the fact that it drags a little in the middle. The first 10 minutes of this hour 50 minute picture st

    ...( read more)arts off on the right foot, with very little dialogue, good suspense, and a quick shootout. Just like that, the main character, Jack Beauregard, has a moderate amount of buildup. From here on out, the film continues to entertain.

    There are a number of slapstick comedic elements in this movie. So yes this is a comedy, but at the same time, there is a serious tone that still makes this a distinguished western.

    There is no question that Terence Hill and Henry Fonda are the ones that make this film as enjoyable as it is. Terence Hill's character is fun to watch and he is a good counter to the seriousness of Henry Fonda.

    Ennio Morricone's playful soundtrack is also worthy of note. Very catchy and memorable.

    My Name is Nobody comes highly recommended for fans of spaghetti westerns.

    When I saw this in the 80`s I thought was a realy good movie, when I was stupid enough to see this again for a couple of years ago I regreted it at once, because it destroyed my childhood memories of this movie

    One of my all-time favorites,the best spaghetti Western comedy ever,produced by the legendary Sergio Leone who makes an amazing and wonderful spoof of his owns Westerns movies. Terence Hill is perfect as Nobody,an ambitious young gunman who idolizes and longs to be like his hero ...( read more)Jack Beauregard,play to perfection by another legend,Henry Fonda! The movie is action packed from start to finish,with so many greats comedy moments,and a wonderful music score by one of the best movies composer ever,if not the best,Ennio Morricone! A delightful,entertaining, and very memorable film,...one of those movies you can watch again and again and again,one of those movies I just love so much!!!!
