Johannes S Simple, abstract, and packed with a lot of funny scenes. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/27/25 Full Review Audience Member I liked a bunch of it. But I did find it too gruesome for my taste. I liked the lead, Frances. I thought she did a really good job and I liked the caricatures nature of how they portrayed Fargo. Decent movie. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/19/25 Full Review Cork B Classic Coen brothers flick. Offbeat dark comedy, weird characters, some splatter overlaid on a standard procedural. Having lived in MN for a good while but not from there, I thought it was funny as heck (see how I said heck?) I knew a bunch of folks in MN that were offended, but at the same time would have no problem looking down on Southerners. Half the fun of this film is a cultural hypocrisy that underlies the story. Is it excessively exaggerated? You Betcha. But that doesn't make it any less true. The upper Midwest winter visuals were also dramatic and brought back many chilling memories. I was a bit disappointed that everyone had on these super heavy winter coats and you could see liquid water on the ground in scenes. They must have had an unusually warm winter to shoot in because that wasn't common unless they were filming in March.

Ni hör ju succé Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/08/25 Full Review Totally Legal A One of the greatest movies of all time; got robbed at the Oscars because Joel just had to flash that it was “Based on a true story” before the opening, should have won best picture over The Boring English Patient (one of Ray Finnes’ worst works) as well as best original screenplay once again because Joel thought no one would believe the Coen Brother’s brilliant script and tale, that one opening statement may have very well set film making back; trust your gut; if you have an original story and idea own it, if you pawn it off on “a true story” no one has time to research that basically one time a guy tried to use a wood chipper to get rid of a body, takes up about 3 min of the film, smh; to date still the Coen’s masterpiece and solidified them as national treasures. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/16/25 Full Review Torben B Classic and a must-watch film ! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/15/25 Full Review Read all reviews
