Doc Holliday line in Tombstone cited as greatest line in Western movie film history:

32 Years Later, the Greatest Quote in Western Movie History Is Still Untouchable

The 1990s gave Western fans some of its greatest films, but one stands out for giving the genre the most quotable line ever spoken.

Yep, very memorable line and a solid movie, which I just recently rewatched too. Kilmer was truly outstanding in it, maybe even his best performance. Still not top tier (depending on how big your top tier is, lol) western movie though. Maybe top 20.

It's good but wouldn't make my top 50, especially if we include the run of fantastic "neo-westerns" such as "Slow West," "Bone Tomahawk," "No Country for Old Men," and the remakes of "3:10 to Yuma" and "True Grit" (not to mention "Blazing Saddles" and "Shanghai Noon"!). As for great lines, give me Henry Fonda in the John Ford OK Corral masterpiece "My Darling Clementine." Walter Brennan, dismissive and amused on hearing that the stranger (Fonda) plans on sticking around to do some marshaling, says: "Good luck to you, Mr ....?," and Fonda (off screen) replies, "Earp. Wyatt Earp." You can read it all in Brennan's face.
