What I loved about it was the total departure from nearly all roles John Wayne played. His character was very dark and gritty, no sense of humor, all business. Even the Rooster Cogburn character had humor to him.
The other thing I loved was the cinematography. There were so many parts that just looked like a painting to me:

Yes, there are scenes in that movie that burn into your memory. The one that always grabbed me was near the end, where Ethan joins the soldiers to attack the Comanche camp. The scene was just before the attack begins, when Ethan gives a low whistle (for the soldiers to advance). There's something chilling in Wayne's eyes in that brief bit of film.
