Product Description
Bounty hunters go after an outlaw and his gang in order to get the $10,000 bounty.
Amazon.com
A ringing instance of a sequel far outstripping its predecessor, Sergio Leone's For a Few Dollars More takes the lethal antihero from A Fistful of Dollars, gives him both a rival and an adversary worthy of sharing a gun-blazing corrida, and ratchets up the stylization to something approaching grandeur. This time the Man with No Name (Clint Eastwood) is a bounty hunter whose desert Southwest killing ground is suddenly crowded by the presence of an older, black-clad shootist (Lee Van Cleef). Individually and together, they terminate sundry grotesques while closing in on their biggest quarry, a memorably insane bandit called El Indio (Gian Maria Volonté is brilliant). There's just enough plot to imbue Van Cleef with genuine mystery, a dark avenging angel from a lost past whose pull would supply the emotional core of Leone's later masterworks Once upon a Time in the West and Once upon a Time in America. Leone's bravura widescreen compositions are breathtaking, and Ennio Morricone's music score--tinged with lunatic religiosity--is his first great one. --Richard T. Jameson

 Great western August 27, 2010
Carrot Top
Another great Clint Easwood western. There's really not much I can say. It's just a great movie that all western movie fans need to have.
"CHA-CHING", $$$$. August 20, 2010

When this film first played theatres, ticket prices were reasonably priced back then. In any case, "For a Few Dollars More", which is was the filmmakers had in mind, they still manage to pull it off, and put out a decent film.
For A Few Dollars More: MGM 2-Disc Collector's Set June 11, 2010
A.D. (Delaware)
This review is for the MGM 2-Disc Collector's Edition of "For A Few Dollars More". I previously review the MGM "Man With No Name Trilogy" 3-Disc set which contains this movie plus "A Fistful of Dollars" and "The Good, The Bad & The Ugly". I gave the Trilogy set a low rating, not because of the movies themselves, which are all top notch, but because "For A Few Dollars More" was mastered in wretched, hard and distorted sound that was so bad it ruined the movie. I assume that that MGM's single disc issue of For A Few Dollars more also sounds terrible, because it is the same version contained in the Trilogy set. Well, I am happy to report that the 2-Disc MGM Collector's set I'm reviewing here has solved the problem. The sound is very good on this set, and the picture quality is equally good. If you love "For A Few Dollars more", this 2-disc Collector's set is the version to buy. Stay away from the headache-inducing version in the Trilogy set and the single disc issue.
And suffice it to say that "For A Few Dollars More" is one of the greatest Westerns ever made. With high quality sound and picture, this 2-Disc Collector's edition easily rates 5 Stars!
The 2nd Spaghetti Western offers twice the pleasure March 23, 2010

Sergio Leone's "A Fistful of Dollars" introduced Clint Eastwood's "Man With No Name" series and introduced the world to the Spaghetti Western, but the next film is more enjoyable than that first one.
In this film Clint plays Monco, a bounty hunter. (The Man with no Name again has a name...) In an early scene we see that Monco is a fearless sharp-shooter, bringing in a bad guy for a reward that is three times the yearly salary of the receiving Sheriff. We're also introduced to another sharp-shooting tough guy bounty hunter - Colonel Douglas Mortimer - played by Lee Van Cleef. Van Cleef plays a little against type as in earlier films he was usually the heavy. Here he takes that bad-guy personna and plays a dude who can wade into a roomful of baddies and walk out with his man without flinching.
After establishing the two bounty hunters as good at their job we're introduced to Indio, played by Gian Maria Volonte (even scarier than from the first movie). Indio is broken out of prison in a bloody rescue, then has a bounty on his head equal to a lifetime's salary. He's particularly evil - not content to merely murder and kill, he toys with his victims before cruelly murdering them.
At first Monco and Mortimer are disappointed to be after the same prey, but the Colonel proposes a partnership - after all, the 14 baddies in Indio's gang would be tough for even the two bad bounty hunters.
This film perpetuates several of the iconic western archetypes that Eastwood later leveled in "Unforgiven", but it's bloody western fun. Eastwood was taking notes. And, recently watching the film again, I find that Van Cleef more than holds his own with the rising superstar.
Even better than the first one in the series... February 27, 2010

I had waited a long time to have this movie, along with "For a Fistful of Dollars" and "The good, the bad and the ugly", and fortunately enough I had access to this version of the movie. Great DVD, and the only things in this version that feel a bit cheap are the lack of an informative booklet, and some more bonus features, which in this DVD are limited to the theatrical trailer only. Maybe other versions have these two things, but I must recognize I went for the price of this DVD. Anyway, I wanted the movie more than any booklet, so I consider myself satisfied. But if you want a better array of contents, maybe do some research here at Amazon, and probably a "fancier" version will be found. Great movie, never gets old!
