Leone’s use of sparse, brooding silences and Ennio Morricone’s instantly recognisable score mean that the film’s soundtrack is just as effective as the striking visuals.

The stage is set here for Sergio Leone’s coming masterpieces, which would transcribe this intense, unsettling energy onto a canvas large enough to fit all of its splenetic, bloodletting rage.

Doesn't have the narrative strength of the first in the trilogy but individual scenes are still brilliant and each ingredient in just perfect, cast, score, tone...

While Eastwood is of course the star, this is arguably Van Cleef’s picture.

Cinema greatness! And to top it off, Leone has to have some of the most interesting and strange looking people populating his film that you'd swear Fellini loaned him a band of extras.

Masterpiece! Absolute iconic movie. Sergio Leone classic style and brilliantly brought to screen. Captivating story, well written. Ennio Morricone again hits the mark with his musical score. Legendary cast all excels in character. Clint Eastwood may be bada$$, but the music stops only when Lee Van Cleef walks into a bar 😜 A couple of "Hollywood rules" broken here, must have been shocking to watch at the time of production (in his defense, Leone was unaware of these rules then:) Must see, for sure

The sequel. Oddly much different than the first= every bit as awesome. The Dollars Trilogy (mostly 1 and 2) belong in any collection and the direction is really great for such an old movie.

Slow start, great world building, even better ending. There was one slightly disturbing scene where I don't understand why certain choices were made, otherwise great movie, 8/10.

For a Few Dollars More occupies a fascinating middle ground in Sergio Leone’s Dollars trilogy. While it occasionally confuses itself with overlapping schemes and pacing that lacks the relentless clarity of The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, it remains a masterful study in style, tension, and character interplay. Leone’s meticulous framing, Morricone’s evocative score, and the magnetic presence of Eastwood and Van Cleef elevate the film beyond mere narrative mechanics. Ultimately, it stands as a masterpiece in its own right, and, like the trilogy as a whole, it can be appreciated independently — each entry is a self-contained exploration of revenge, cunning, and cinematic virtuosity.

Very good movie, good soundtrack. Not as good as The Good The Bad And The Ugly, but still very good.
