Leave it to the wildly inventive Coen brothers (Joel directs, Ethan produces, they both write) to concoct a fiendishly clever kidnap caper that's simultaneously a comedy of errors, a Midwestern satire, a taut suspense thriller, and a violent tale of criminal misfortune. It all begins when a hapless car salesman (played to perfection by William H. Macy) ineptly orchestrates the kidnapping of his own wife. The plan goes horribly awry in the hands of bumbling bad guys Steve Buscemi and Peter Stormare (one of them being described by a local girl as "kinda funny lookin'" and "not circumcised"), and the pregnant sheriff of Brainerd, Minnesota, (played exquisitely by Frances McDormand in an Oscar-winning role) is suddenly faced with a case of multiple murders. Her investigation is laced with offbeat observations about life in the rural hinterland of Minnesota and North Dakota, and Fargo embraces its local yokels with affectionate humor. At times shocking and hilarious, Fargo is utterly unique and distinctly American, bearing the unmistakable stamp of its inspired creators. --Jeff Shannon

 A new all-time favorite June 27, 2009
M. C. Semple (Central Florida)
I finally got around to seeing Fargo, and what a wonderful surprise! Funny, tragic, memorable.
Fargo went straight to the top of my all-time favorites list, along with Sideways and, uh, Gone With the Wind
thanks June 9, 2009
Holly C. Cooper (Winter Park, FL)
a funny/odd movie with outrageous Minnesotan accents (accurate, but overdone). and the "WTF" quality of the movie only adds to its greatness.

All I can say is: that is 98 minutes of my life that I will NEVER get back. It would have been more productive and exciting to watch my toenails grow. I love Steve Buscemi and Bruce Campbell, but what were they thinking???
A good police's movie, in Fargo April 15, 2009

I watched this good movie, here in Brazil.This movie is about a crime, in an american city, called Fargo.The main actress, Frances McDormand, is excellent.Well done work.
Should've won best picture that year! March 29, 2009
Nicholi Blaise Woods (Dahlonega)
I just bought this movie and watched it, and this was a very good movie. I believe this was nominated for best picture that year and lost it to "The English Patient", and I say that this movie should've won best picture that year. A really good movie!
