Drifting from town to town, the poncho-clad Man with No Name and the lightning-fast right hand rides into the town of El Paso in search of maniacal escaped convict El Indio. It's been 18 short months since the deadly confrontation in Per un pugno di dollari (1964), and this time, the solitary stranger, now a professional bounty hunter, must go against his beliefs and do the unthinkable: join forces with hawk-eyed marksman Colonel Douglas Mortimer to collect the hefty reward. Now, as El Indio and his cut-throats have already set their sights on robbing the crammed-with-cash Bank of El Paso, the stage is set for a bloody showdown at high noon, against the backdrop of silent double-crosses and fragile allegiances. But, is it worth dicing with death for a few dollars more?

| eFilmCritic.comScott WeinbergA delicious second helping of Clint & Sergio! |
| sbs.isStefan Birgir StefanssonNot as good as the third sequel but still very entertaining. |
| Chicago ReaderJ. R. JonesLeone's artful editing of close-ups to communicate the characters' spatial relationships is always a pleasure. |
| VarietyVariety StaffA hard-hitting western with upper-case values out of the busy Italo stable, this is a topnotch action entry. |
| Antagony & EcstasyTim BraytonA tremendously good sequel, on top of being a tremendously good movie in and of itself - surely the best Italian Western at the time of its release. |
| Greenwich Village GazetteEric LurioClint Eastwood, just as the spagetti western schtick was beginning to get old. |
| Reel Film ReviewsDavid NusairThough it's about a half-hour too long, For a Few Dollars More is overall a much more exciting and involving film [than the original]. |
| CinemaniaDan JardineHe indulges in a certain sexually-charged imagery lifted straight from film noir |
| Time OutGeoff AndrewA significant step forward from A Fistful of Dollars, with the usual terrific compositions, Morricone score, and taciturn performances, not to mention the ubiquitous flashback disease. |
| Cleveland PressTony MastroianniOver violent, over sadistic, over-done and over-long. |
