Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Fargo, with its grotesque murders and cheery detectives, is a cold gem that takes us to the far north. Its seemingly pitiless light opens up the realms of darkness concealed beneath that world of white.

fresh:
A small, supremely satisfying film. Heck and you betcha, it is.

fresh:
A few scenes go around in circles, as if snow-blind, and the humor may be too inward and contorted for some tastes. But McDormand brings order to the weirdness and warms it up.

fresh:
It's another daring black comedy by one of the most consistently inventive moviemaking teams of the last decade, brothers Joel and Ethan Coen.

rotten:
From the camera angles to the set design, everything is calculated to make the viewer feel superior to the cloddish, geeky characters on display.
