When Fistful of Dollars proved to be a such a hit in America, director Sergio Leone and actor Clint Eastwood were quick to cash-in with this quickly cobbled together sequel about two bounty hunters who reluctantly join forces to bring a Mexican bad guy to justice. While a lot of it is a carbon copy of the first movie, For a Few Dollars More turns out to be a better movie because of the addition of Lee Van Cleef as Clint’s rival bounty hunter. Van Cleef doesn’t just support Eastwood in the movie, he steals it from him with cooler guns, cooler lines and a cool pipe that makes Clint’s trademark cheroots look cheap.
