While the recent Star Wars movies have polarized audiences, with the fanbase split in half on what they want out of the franchise, The Mandalorian hit Disney+ and seemingly did the impossible. It unified much of the fanbase and gave them something creative and new, the first Star Wars property in years that didn’t polarize the viewers.

While The Mandalorian takes place in the Star Wars universe, it moved things away from the Skywalker Saga, and suddenly felt fresh again. The series also borrowed from westerns and samurai epics, which is not surprising since George Lucas did the same thing with the original Star Wars film. Here is a look at 10 movies to watch if you liked The Mandalorian, not including the Star Wars movies.

YOJIMBO (1961)

The original Star Wars film was a loose remake of the Akira Kurosawa movie The Hidden Fortress. It should come as no surprise that The Mandalorian also bears similarity to another Kurosawa film. Yojimbo told the tale of a ronin, a masterless samurai, who arrives in a small town where a war rages between warlords.

The ronin then plays both sides and saves the town in the process. Mando is a ronin himself, a lone gunfighter, and a bounty hunter who has no problem following his conscience while playing both sides of the war.

A FISTFUL OF DOLLARS (1964)

Sergio Leone directed A Fistful of Dollars in 1964, the first part of his Dollars Trilogy. Released three years after Kurosawa’s movie, this was a remake of Yojimbo and moved the action from the feudal Japanese samurai days and into the world of the spaghetti western.

Clint Eastwood stars as the Man with No Name, who rides into town and saves it from warring factions. The movie was followed by For a Few Dollars More and then The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly — all three movies similar in style and story to The Mandalorian.

DJANGO UNCHAINED (2012)

Moving away from the idea of a traveling ronin, Mando was a bounty hunter by trade. His entire purpose in The Mandalorian was to find targets and collect the bounties by returning them. In 2012, Quentin Tarantino created a bounty hunter movie in Django Unchained and set it in the Wild West.

Dr. King Schultz (Christophe Waltz) is a bounty hunter who buys a slave named Django (Jamie Foxx) and offers him his freedom to help him track down his latest targets. The film picked up five Oscar nominations, with Waltz winning for his role as the bounty hunter.

BLADE RUNNER 2049 (2017)

The original Blade Runner was one of the greatest science fiction movies ever made. When Denis Villeneuve created a sequel to it with Blade Runner 2049 almost 40 years later, he made a few stylistic changes, and it felt almost as much like a western as a sci-fi epic.

In this film, Ryan Gosling is a replicant Blade Runner, searching for other replicants in hiding and taking them out. When he learns of a plot within the police force itself, he has to go on the run and eventually finds the original Blade Runner, Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford). The film picked up five Oscar nominations.

MAD MAX: FURY ROAD (2015)

The original Mad Max movies have a significant cult following, but the fourth movie in the series, hitting theaters 30 years after the third, ended up as one of the biggest cult films in years. Mad Max: Fury Road hit theaters in 2015 and picked up an eye-popping 10 Oscar nominations.

In the original movies, Mel Gibson played Max, but this time around, Tom Hardy took on the role and was joined by Charlize Theron as Imperator Furiosa, as the two of them go on the run from a cult. This movie is over-the-top and remains one of the best sci-fi action movies of the last decade.

3:10 TO YUMA (1957)

James Mangold remade the classic western 3:10 to Yuma in 2007 with Christian Bale and Russell Crowe in the lead. While that was a good movie, fans might as well go back 50 years and watch the original film, with the great Glenn Ford starring, alongside Van Heflin.

The story is based on the novel by Elmore Leonard, an author who spent his career moving between mysteries and westerns. Heflin is a rancher who offers to escort an outlaw to a train, the 3:10 to Yuma, to face justice for his crimes.

LONE WOLF AND CUB (1972)

Moving back to Japan, and with a theme that most fans of The Mandalorian know well, Lone Wolf and Cub was a film based on a manga by Kazuo Koike and Goseki Kojima. There were seven movies made between 1972 and 1980, with the first titled Lone Wolf and Cub: Sword of Vengeance.

The series features the exploits of an assassin for hire named Ogami Ittō. He sets off for his missions with his young three-year-old son in tow — the cub of the title. While slightly different from Mando saving The Child (aka Baby Yoda), the difficulty of battling enemies while protecting a child is on play here.

SEVEN SAMURAI (1954)

The influence of Akira Kurosawa is strong in both Star Wars: A New Hope as well as The Mandalorian. While their direct influences were The Hidden Fortress and Yojimbo, fans of this genre of filmmaking should find a lot to love in Kurosawa’s masterpiece, Seven Samurai.

This is an epic samurai film about a village that hires seven ronin to stop the bandits that are stealing their crops. The movie was remade as the western The Magnificent Seven, and the fourth episode of The Mandalorian, “Chapter 4: Sanctuary,” pays direct homage to the film.

THE TALE OF ZATOICHI (1962)

Released in 1962, The Tale of Zatoichi was a Japanese samurai film based on the novel of the same name by Kan Shimozawa. Zatoichi is a blind masseur who is also a renowned swordsman hired by a yakuza leader due to an upcoming gang war. In response, a rival yakuza boss hires his own ronin.

Few people take Zatoichi seriously in battle, which is a mistake for anyone who crosses his path. There is a considerable level of respect between the two warriors, and that plays into their fated battle. It is a respect that not only Mando, but the entire Mandalorian people possess.

3 GODFATHERS (1948)

The film that possibly has the most in common with The Mandalorian when it comes to The Child, or Baby Yoda, is the 1948 western film 3 Godfathers. This movie is a classic John Ford western where the legendary filmmaker teams up once again with his muse, John Wayne.

Wayne is a rustler named Bob, who, with his two companions, head into a town to rob a bank there. While on the run, they find the deputy’s lost niece, who is pregnant, and help her deliver the baby and become the child’s godfathers after the mother’s death.
