Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

One of the worst movies I've ever seen

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

"For a Few Dollars More" is a highly enjoyable spaghetti western film. Situations and the plot are designed specifically for the fans of this genre. It is the 2nd film of the Dollars trilogy, which is also known as The Man with No Name. The films in the trilogy have nothing to do with each other in the means of story, but after seeing the 2nd film, it starts to make sense to me why they are called a trilogy. Even though the stories are completely unrelated, these films are gathered more or less around a similar plot. Soundtracks are equally beautiful, the leading actor, Clint Eastwood, stars in all three films. Even the names of the first two films are completing each other. "For a Few Dollars More" is more serious and complex compared to the first film of the trilogy, A Fistful of Dollars. From the point of view of action and story, I find this one more satisfying. You can feel that, in "For a Few Dollars More," director Sergio Leone has more trust in himself because of the success of the first film. He is more focused and his distinctive directing style is more visible in this one. The leading actors Clint Eastwood and Lee Van Cleef are completing each other. The villain El Indio, played by Gian Maria Volonte, seems to be the evilest character of the Western films I have ever seen. Besides the performances, soundtracks and the western atmosphere are the strongest points of the film. Even though there is well-structured story, you get the feeling that, things are happening based on the situations. It seems like the characters don't follow a plan, but react to incidents. This makes the film more complex and hard to anticipate.Lee Van Cleef, as Colonel Douglas Mortimer, is added to the second film as an experienced bounty hunter. This gives Sergio Leone a strong hand to play with, he is not limited in the means of characters. This liberty makes him create a better, a more independent story. Clint Eastwood, as Manco, is the other bounty hunter. His role is more or less the same as the first film. He wears the same clothes, talks the same, acts the same and even the way he smokes his tobacco is the same. He is a complete icon for western films. He shares the leading role with Lee Van Cleef, and this removes the responsibility from his shoulders to carry the film on his own. Sergio Leone uses Eastwood in the roles that are more suitable for him, which creates a more reliable character.Both Colonel Douglas Mortimer and Manco are highly talented gunmen, who make living out of the prize money issued for capturing or killing outlaws on the loose. We get to know Colonel Mortimer, Manco and the psychopath outlaw El Indio in the first scenes of the film. These scenes create a credibility for the future references. We are highly aware of what these men are capable of doing. After El Indio is taken out from the jail by his gang, a prize money of 10k USD is issued on his head. Mortimer and Manco decide to go after this guy, for different reasons, which are revealed in the end of the film. When they find out about each other, they decide to team up against El Indio and his gang.The film plays host for the iconic scenes where Mortimer and Manco shoot each other's hats, or the old man talking about the train company who wanted to buy his house to make a railway for the train and how he didn't sell it. "For a Few Dollars More" is a film where English-speaking guys are leading the roles made by Italian speaking people. Like the first film, this one is also a co-production of Italy, West Germany and Spain. Clint Eastwood's presence was critical for the second film, and it was not easy to convince him to star in it because he hasn't seen the first film and didn't know what to expect from it. So, the production company sent a copy of the film to him, which was Italian back then, and Eastwood gathered his friends and watched it. Based on his friends' positive feedbacks he accepted the role for a total sum of 50K USD which is 3 times more than his salary for the previous film. "For a Few Dollars More" has everything in it about western genre. It is action packed, highly enjoyable and satisfying. Because of the reasons I have counted above, "For a Few Dollars More" is one of the best films of its genre.

Per qualche dollaro in piùAs always Sergio Leone takes too much time in making a point which takes away the interest no matter how intriguing the plot is, but besides that it is well crafted.

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.

Released in 1965 and directed by Sergio Leone, "For a Few Dollars More" stars Clint Eastwood and Lee Van Cleef as two expert bounty hunters, the latter more experienced and sophisticated, who team-up to take down a notorious bank robber named El Indio, aka The Indian, played by Gian Maria Volontè. If you've seen several Spaghetti Westerns from the 60s-70s then you know that the ones by Leone are a notch or two above the other ones in overall quality, but I usually find his stories and the overall presentation kinda dull, albeit somewhat entrancing. Not to mention these early ones ("A Fistful of Dollars" and this one) are hindered by laughable sound effects (like punches) and bad English dubbing. Then there's the incongruent mixing of seriousness with goofy humor, like when hats are shot off a dude's head without a scratch. Why Sure!"For a Few…" comes across as a dress rehearsal for the superior "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly," which was made the next year. Like that one, there's no female character of any note and the overlong flick ends with an allegedly suspenseful gunfight between the three main characters. Speaking of which, Gian Maria Volontè is notably charismatic as El Indio. There's this myth going around that Leone's Dollars trilogy introduced the concept of the antihero, otherwise known as the "good (or likable) bad man." Actually, the antihero had been around for decades when "Fistful" was released in '64. Take, for example, John Wayne's Ringo Kid in "Stagecoach" (1939) or Richard Widmark's Comanche Todd in "The Last Wagon" (1956) or Anthony Quinn's Bob Kallen in "The Ride Back" (1957) and, particularly, Brando's Kid Rio in "One-Eyed Jacks" (1961). These are just off the top of my head.The difference with Eastwood's antihero in Leone's Man With No Name trilogy is that, unlike the antiheroes above, he is without personality, unless squinting, shooting and smoking cheroots are taken as profound marks of character. In Short, Leone introduced the antihero CARICATURE as opposed to the antihero CHARACTER. Cool caricatures work just fine when you're in your teens or early 20s, but after you mature a bit you naturally desire more three-dimensional and believable characters. The film runs 132 minutes and was shot in Granada, Almería & Colmenar Viejo, Spain, with interiors done in Rome. The plot of the screenplay (by Leone et al.) was taken from Kurosawa's samurai film "Sanjuro."GRADE: B-
