Review of For a Few Dollars More (1965) by Connor M — 15 Aug 2010
Connor Macgregor (On Vacation) Reviews...For A Few Dollars More.
Just when I thought The First Dollars Film changed Western Genre...Out Comes For A Few Dollars More.
Monco is a bounty killer chasing El Indio and his gang. During his hunting, he meets Col. Douglas Mortimer, another bounty killer, and they decide to make a partnership, chase the bad guys together and split the reward. During their enterprise, there will be lots of bullets and funny situations. In the end, one of the bounty hunters shows the real intention of his hunting.
This film exceeds where Fistful Of Dollars started. The story goes beyond the town and into the unknown world of the western. Clint Eastwood once again shows how cool The Man With No Name is. All he cares about his money and will do anything to get it , even kill innocent lives. Another performance I have to mention is Lee Van Cleef who plays Douglas Mortimer. Its a great role to match with Eastwood`s Man With No Name. These two have great chemistry in the film right until the climax which is one of the best endings to a film ever.
The story is a great western story. Two Bounty Hunters after the same guy and its a race to see who can get to him first. The acting is marvellous in the film and the directing by Sergio Leone is remarkable.
Overall better than the first but do not need to see the first to enjoy it. But please see the first,this one and the third and possibly greatest western ever made.
Rating - 89% - A-.
