For a Few Dollars More Reviews

A few weeks ago, I saw again ‘A Fisful of Dollars’, so I thought it was time to watch again the sequel as well. To be honest, even though it might be surprising, even though I really enjoyed it, I thought it was in fact slightly underwhelming. First of all, I thought I saw it years ago as a kid but while watching the damned thing, I couldn’t remember a thing so I was maybe mistaken. Then, even though everyone seems to think that it was an improvement on the first installment, I wasn’t really convinced. At best, it was as good but I think I still prefer the ‘A Fistful of Dollars’ because, this time, they didn’t really add anything really new to the formula with this 2nd installment. Sure, this time, you had Lee Van Cleef and even Good Old Klaus Kinski was added to the mix but the whole thing felt like a déjà vu, at least, in my case. I mean, Gian Maria Volonte was again pretty good but he played basically the same character. Maybe my expectations were too high, I don’t know. Still, it remains a really entertaining and seminal Western and the amazing soundtrack by Ennio Morricone gave me once again some major goosebumps. Anyway, to conclude, don’t too pay much attention to my nagging, it is a classic and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you like the genre.
