Unforgiven, Open Range, Broken Trail, and Silverado are modern western classics.

The hateful eight and Bone tomohawk. I'm scarred from watching Bone Tomahawk. I'll never watch that movie again.

Metacritic obviously needed to check these boxes to get an A from their film noir professor, I am surprised Brokeback Mounting wasn't in there!

Lots of good choices already mentioned. One I didn't see listed is "Ulzana's Raid". For some reason I had missed it, and saw it for the first time last night. Burt Lancaster turns in an exceptional role as an army scout.

Badlands and Traded are a couple of good westerns. The three burials of Melquiaqdes Estrada is not only good but different. I have a few more in my collection that I think were released for DVD only and never made the big screen. Too bad as they're pretty darn good.

I am also partial to Quigley, even though it would be classified as a different sort of western. Tom Selleck can look the part without even trying hard.

There are so many good westerns it would be hard to mention them all... The Shootist was pretty good and one of John Wayne's last roles, The Revenant was great and the production values and cinematography was incredible... Sons of Katie Elder was also a good one, but I could go on all day. I love Westerns- new and old for the most part but some of the older ones seem pretty dated due to the production techniques and lousy cinematography compared to newer films...
War Wagon
Dancing with Wolves
Silverado is a favorite
All of Clint Eastwood's spaghetti westerns..
Sabata
3:10 to Yuma

3:10 to Yuma Yeah, the Shootist definitely deserves honorable mention. One of my favorites.

Westerns are my favorite, especially with Clint. I'd say my #1 Clint move is "For a Few Dollars More."
Surprised nobody has mentioned Young Guns. I know its a newer western, but it really was a good movie.
