It is EXTREMELY good on almost all fronts - easily one of my favorite movies.

Epic length and sweeping plot.

One of Eastwoods best performances.

Wallach, a Romanian Jew, plays the best Dirty Mexican I have ever seen.

Lee Van Cleef plays an incredible, sadistic psychopath.

The scenery is extremely strong and atmospheric despite being set in the South of Spain I think.

The presence of sub plots and the backdrop of the Civil War add a lot, especially the commentary on the absurdity and brutality of War on both the Union and Confederate sides (Represented by the Drunk Union Commander's struggle to destroy the bridge and the Confederate Camp/Prison Camp plot)

The Mexican Standoff at the end, while somehow getting back right where the movie started is also great.

It's very well made, and obviously an iconic and influential film, but it's just too gratuitous to be GOAT.

I believe Godfather, Part 2 to be the GOAT.

TGTBTU was just a very uncomfortable movie to watch at many points. Then again, premium cable TV shows are also often gratuitous and receive thunderous critical praise.

The Tuco torture scene might be peak gratuitousness in the movie, although the juxtaposition of that against the Confederate prisoners' music elevates it. Compare that to your usual cable TV disembowelment or beheading.

and what a great song ...The Story of a Soldier....

the lyrics are great, too, and steeped in the flavors of history:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nc-SJD7FvdA

Bugles are calling from prairie to shore,

"Sign up" and "Fall In" and march off to war.

Blue grass and cotton, burnt and forgotten

All hope seems gone so soldier march on to die.

Bugles are calling from prairie to shore,

"Sign up" and "Fall In" and march off to war.

There in the distance a flag I can see,

Scorched and in ribbons but whose can it be,

How ends the story, whose is the glory

Ask if we dare, our comrades out there who sleep.

IMDb is garbage. Back to the Future, possibly the most flawless movie ever written, not in IMDb top 250. Heat, the best heist movie of the last 2 decades - not in top 250. In fact, nothing from Michael Mann is ranked. Shawshank is an ok movie but if you read the Stephen King novella already it wouldn't feel like a tremendous achievement.
