Quentin Tarantino's favourite movie trilogy of all time is leaving Amazon Prime very soon

Quentin Tarantino's movie opinion goes a long way as an Oscar-winning director who admits he would have been a film critic had his Hollywood career not worked out.

A massive fan of sixties and seventies cinema, the stylistic filmmaker has previously praised The Good, the Bad and the Ugly as "the greatest achievement in the history of cinema."

And it turns out he views Sergio Leone's Spaghetti Western Dollars trilogy starring Clint Eastwood's Man with No Name as the best movie trilogy ever made.

For Tarantino, it's the fact that each film surpasses the one that preceded it in greatness.

The matter came up when Tarantino was saying how he'd never watch Toy Story 4 because Toy Story 3 concluded the Pixar trilogy so well.

Speaking previously with , Tarantino said: "I think there's only one trilogy that completely and utterly works to the Nth degree and that's A Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More and The Good, the Bad and the Ugly." He claimed it was Leone's "one director vision" that made this possible.

The director continued: "It does what no other trilogy has ever been quite able to do.The first movie is terrific, but the second movie is so great and takes the whole idea to such a bigger canvas that it obliterates the first one. And then the third one does the same thing to the second one, and that's kind of what never happens. You'll see this big jump from the first to the second and they don't really land the third one."

A Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More and The Good, the Bad and the Ugly leave Amazon Prime at the end of July.
