    Sergio Leone made a perfect trilogy, each one bettering the one before. Eastwood is at the top of his game and the introduction of Lee Van Cleef's character is cinema at its best. I tend not to write too much about my favourite films as I never feel I do them justice, just watch ...( read more)and enjoy film fans!

    This time Eastwood is named Monco. He's not the only man with no name though really. I find it interesting that the same handful of actors appear throughout this trilogy, but except for Eastwood who maintains his iconic costume, everyone else plays new characters unrelated to t...( read more)heir other portrayal(s). Everyone has no name except for how the surrounding plot or circumstances define them. Van Cleef makes his first appearance as a rival bounty hunter, though his Bad character in Good, Bad, and Ugly seems definitive since I saw it prior to this. Volonte makes his second appearance as a bank robbing, gang leading bandit with a tortured soul. These three leads are excellent and again Good, Bad, and Ugly seems more definitive, but the showdown at the end in this one was the first.

    The story just didn't feel as powerful in this one. There were some strange coincidences in the plot and the holes made it a bit more confusing. There seemed like there was something a little off with some of the sound effects and voice over dubbing compared to the other two films. Though the watch that played the little tune made for a great musical theme in this second part of the trilogy.

    "When the chimes end, pick up your gun. Go ahead and shoot me Colonel. Just try."

    Two bounty hunters with completely different intentions team up to track down a Western outlaw.

    REVIEW

    Many con...( read more)sider this film the most perfectly realized of Leone's trilogy, though I prefer the grander sweep of The Good The Bad and The Ugly. This is the best film in the series to start with, though, being slightly more polished than Fistful Of Dollars, and it's easier to follow as a template of the Leone style.

    Contrary to popular critical opinion, this is definitely not a 'revisionist' western. What Leone has done has stripped the traditional western story down to its essential elements and flipped it. Basically, this is an ordinary western saga seen through a distorted (or clearer, depending on your viewpoint) lens. All westerns were generally made with the same characteristics, that is, a good guy and a bad guy. The good guy was simple: a lawman or rancher protecting something. The bad guy was usually the more interesting one. Leone made the so called 'good guy' more interesting, and more vicious than the villain. The story becomes the mirror image of the American Western, reflected from the deserts of Spain.

    Eastwood, despite the dispute of others, is "The Man With No Name", and it's not only his identity that's unknown, it's his motives, his purpose, his origin. He's the focal point of the story, even though here he spends a lot of background time, letting Van Cleef and the others stand out in many striking scenes. This is Leone's genius at work. We never forget Eastwood is there, somewhere.

    The two great characteristics of the trilogy are the close-ups and the music. These are better done here than in the others. Seeing this film for the first time, I was struck by the faces, which seemed to jump out of the screen from another place and time, definitely not the west of "Gunsmoke". The soundtrack, both stirring and haunting, will be celebrated a century from now. But the most amazing thing about this movie is that a film created on another continent and with a cast and crew of mostly Europeans is considered one of the greatest American Westerns.

    Second in the trilogy and the second best. Not as classic as the Good the Bad and the Ugly but a classic all the same. The music and action is top rate as usual. Morricone can do no wrong haha Van Cleef adds real quality and the bounty hunter element is great story material, fits...( read more) Van Cleef to a tea. The sequences where Cleef and Eastwood take down individual criminals at the start is pure western gold, its also alittle more sadistic and violent in this chapter, for its time anyway. Lastly check Klaus Kinski as the hunchback, thats a character :)

    A great continuation of The Man with No Name's adventures. Here the script is tighter and more interesting. A sort of team up happens and Eastwood/Van Cleef make a fantastic movie double act without getting all "buddy". The music is of course fantastic and is reason enough to see...( read more) the film. The gun fights are well built up and never overdone. Only real problem is the dubbing and sound effects, which sometimes just cut off. Still after a while you kind of get used to it and it is to the stories credit that it overcomes this handicap. A great looking film and one that makes you want to be a cowboy.

    A Masterpiece.

    This has to be by new favorite western.

    I was so surprised on how great this film was.
    It has a great villlian, great chracters and a very interesting plot with some twists. The music is also moving, its got more feeling to it, like its sad or something.

    ...( read more)Clint Eastwood was great as always but Gian Maria Volonte and Lee Van Cleef steal the show .

    Unlike Sergio Leone's other westerns, I think the length of this film is just right. It's 2 hrs and 10 minutes long. It's not too long or too short. The pace of the film is just right.

    Great movie.

    In his second film of the Dollar Trilogy, Leone starts to polish his stylish direction in a more skilful manner and manages to use a great cast and many unforgettable scenes and dialogues to create a splendid western opera.
