Watch Fargo For Free

The Worst Film Ever

That was an excellent one.

hyped garbage

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

I love Coen brothers' movies. This story is based on a true story and the story is just a story. Because the way of describing it is great,this movie is great. It could be a serious movie but,certainly,it is serious but not so serious . There are some comedy scenes so I felt the 98 minuets passed very quickly like a moment. It's fascinating.

A fantastically layered production 'Fargo' is perhaps the finest film under the belts of the Coen brothers. Ahead of its time with its female protagonist and groundbreaking with its ambition this wintery tale is truly superb, such an interesting watch

Jerry Lundegaard's inept crime falls apart due to his and his henchmen's bungling and the persistent police work of the quite pregnant Marge Gunderson. Fargo is for sure an original film as a whole but the problem is that it's not a good film as a whole and despite the solid perfomances there was nothing more to it that i was actually invested into and i even enjoyed as a whole. The film is also very slow paced and that makes things even worse for me but at least it's not as bad as some other movies for the Top 250 movies of all time so that's at least ok. (4/10)

This is a true story. No kiddin. It really is. It seems so bizarre and comical, but it is truly based on real events, only the names of the characters are changed. Fargo is about a financially struggling loser played by William H. Macey. His car business is going downhill and he is desperate for extra money. This dude comes up with the idea to fake a kidnapping of his own wife and collect the ransom monye which will be paid by the extremely wealthy father of his wife. Things go sour of course. And how terribly bad things get is the brilliance of this true story. The reason you must be reading this review is because you probably dont know the Coen Brothers (very well). Any fan of their work will watch everything they make, because these 2 brothers are the pinacle of absolute genius in american independent cinema. I just count the months every year waiting to see the next creation of these brothers who are both director, producer and writer of all their movies. With "Fargo" they made one of their best works. It became one their most popular ones too, even a series was made after this story.For those who have never seen a Coen Brothers film before, a little warning: the humor in "Fargo" is very subtle. The Coen Brothers are magnificent in portraying their characters in a way that can be interpreted in different ways. You can look at it as a drama, but simultaneously you can also laugh about it. These brothers walk this tightrope between comedy and drama as a brilliant circus trapeze act. It makes for an unforgettable watching experience. But some people just dont understand these black comedies. The Coen Brothers style is NOT straight comedy. It is twisted and dark, but true to life and endearing simultaneously.Acting performances are always great in all of the Coen Brothers movies. Just like in Quentin Tarantino's movies, these twin brother directors truly love and appreciate their actors. Excellent casting choices!Huge praise for the beautiful soundtrack by Carter Burwell and for the beautifully shot desolate winter spaces of Dakota by oscar nominated photographer Roger Deakins.Fargo has become a Coen Brother's favorite of mine. Not their best work, so if you like this one, please check out their earliest work and the classic "No Country for Old Men", those are all ultimate masterpieces of modern american cinema!
