Some things I liked some I did not.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Set to the tune of what is, for my money, the best musical score of the three 'Man With No Name' pictures and perhaps my favourite western score of all time, this larger-scale sequel is an improvement on the first mainly in terms of its plotting. 'For A Few Dollars More (1965)' casts Eastwood's nameless stranger - who's introductory sequence is one of the best in cinema history - as a dangerous but reckless bounty killer, pairing him with Lee Van Cleef's methodical and sophisticated Colonel as they aim to take down a well-known criminal and pocket the large reward. Van Cleef has a more personal stake in the action whereas Eastwood's in it for the cash and this juxtaposition wisely adds variety to the already well established formula as their uneasy partnership is never as straightforward as it may seem. Along the way we get the blistering confrontations and cool cigar-chewing banter we'd expect from a picture of this calibre. Those stare-downs are just as good as ever and, while there's nothing here quite as intense as the final showdown from the trilogy's first instalment, the feature as a whole is just a lot more fun. 8/10

FOR A FEW DOLLARS MORE is a spaghetti Western film about two mysterious bounty hunter and a group of bandits led by a notorious murderer, rapist and robber. Mr. Leone has made again an exciting film full of a vivid violence, fistfights and shooting. He brings, through the relationship between the protagonist and mysterious flashbacks, an interesting combination between the danger, uncertainty and threat, which is a novelty in the genre.The two bounty hunter are separately introduced, while they hunt down and kill wanted outlaws to collect bounty. Meanwhile, a gang of outlaws breaks into a prison to free their leader, a clever, ruthless and psychotic "El Indio". The bounty hunters are interested in the large reward offered for the notorious fugitive and his group. None of them does not want competition in his work, though, they're hiding their true motives and join forces in their undertaking...In this film almost everything is done in a harmonious way, but an unpredictable and uncertain conflict between the three main characters is the biggest asset of this film. A fearless killing machine, an experienced and righteous colonel and an intelligent and ruthless madman guarantee an uncertain fun. An excellent direction and precisely arranged dynamics between a conversation, shots, violence and death enhance visual stimulation to the maximum. Therefore, a fiction has, through emotional and violent appearances, moral values and justifications, completely understandable context.The atmosphere is amazing, characterization is pretty good and the soundtrack is phenomenal.Clint Eastwood as Manco (the "Man with No Name") is somehow emotionally crippled and fearless killing machine. A harmonious movement, which corresponds very well with a change in his character at the end of the film are well designed. Mr. Eastwood has offered a convincing performance. Lee Van Cleef as Colonel Douglas Mortimer is an experienced character with a mysterious purpose. He was once a great soldier, now is a great bounty hunter. The revenge does not choose the means. Gian Maria Volontè as El Indio is simply brilliant in the role of a ruthless bandit. Klaus Kinski as Wild, the hunchback has drew my attention with his impatient mad expressions. A small role, but a very good performance.This is stylistically perfect film, which is well dovetailed between the original and the masterpiece.

For A Few Dollars More (1965)Plot In A Paragraph: Two bounty hunters Monco (Clint Eastwood) and Colonel Douglas Mortimer (Lee Van Cleef) join forces to track the outlaw El Indio who has just broke out of prison.With triple the budget of A Fistful Of Dollars, Leone delivers a movie that is longer, funnier and bloodier than its predecessor. Even the gun play is more outlandish (seeing the end of Clints cigar get shot off amused my son no end) as is the actions set pieces!! Once again Ennino Morricone's score is superb. Lee Gan Cleef is simply as cool as a cucumber, Gina Maria Volonte (Ramon Rojo in A Fist Full Of Dollars) returns and is as reliable as he was first time around and he isn't the only one returning, Benito Stefanelli and Aldo Sambrell return too. As for Clint, he was heading in to the 8th and final season of Rawhide, and he dusts off the very same poncho he wore in the first movie and stakes his claim as a bona fide movie star As much as I love the first one, this one is even better!! And as a side note, the musical theme the watch played, was the first ringtone I ever downloaded!! Grossing $15 million A Few Dollars More was the 12th highest grossing movie and 1965. A fantastic success given its $600,000 budget.

Amazing start with two guys hunting and collecting bounty on some of heads they were chasing. Movie keeps your level of interest for characters and their relationship as movie is building tension with plot heading in different directions then planned. Companionship between two bounty hunters is intense and they have different desires in their hunt of Indio. Movie shifts feelings and it makes it entertaining to watch as well as it twisty plot and intelligent characters that surprise us with some of their actions and have a profound meaning behind their thinking. It is almost certain that Manco and Colonel are going to be the ones that win and get what they want but the way their characters are outsmarting and giving their help to fill bound between them is remarkable. Everything from the music written by great Ennio Morricone that build every scene and changes course of plot to the great directing by Leone and after all amazing acting by Eastwood you are just blown away. 4/4
