One of the standout crime thrillers of all time. The dialogue is razor-sharp—equal parts dark and hilariously absurd. It’s the perfect blend of tension and wit, with unforgettable characters that make the story truly a classic.
Chicago Tribune
Gene Siskel
It's another daring black comedy by one of the most consistently inventive moviemaking teams of the last decade, brothers Joel and Ethan Coen.
New York Daily News
Dave Kehr
From the camera angles to the set design, everything is calculated to make the viewer feel superior to the cloddish, geeky characters on display.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Wilmington
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.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
A small, supremely satisfying film. Heck and you betcha, it is.
Orlando Sentinel
Jay Boyar
In the fascinating Fargo, writer-director Joel and writer-producer Ethan have come up with a film that is either an oddly funny crime drama or an ultra-deadpan comedy, depending on how you look at it.
Slant Magazine
Eric Henderson
Do you have to be a Minnesotan to really get Fargo?
The Ringer
Adam Nayman
The movie stands as a pseudo thesis of the things the Coen Brothers have been interested in all along...
The Hollywood Reporter
David Hunter
[Frances] McDormand is excellent and has a lot of fun with her tenacious and competent character, who is dedicated to duty and her sweet, supportive husband.
Flavorwire
Jason Bailey
Not only did the Coens return from the brink, but they gave us one of the most memorable (if not the most memorable) characters in modern cinema.
Village Voice
Chris Packham
The film is a work of brick-by-brick world-building in the service of characters whose ordinariness is just as carefully crafted.
The New Yorker
Anthony Lane
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.
Variety
Leonard Klady
Fargo is a strikingly mature, uniqueentertainment that plays on many levels ... all satisfying.
Washington Post
Rita Kempley
Gunderson (Frances McDormand) [is] the most endearing, hilarious and wholly feminine heroine since Thelma or Louise.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
Chief Gunderson was created by the Coens specifically for Frances McDormand ... and they've been rewarded by a brilliant and unblinking comic performance.
San Francisco Chronicle
Peter Stack
A crime gem that is darkly funny even when it's chilling -- and certain to become a classic.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
To watch it is to experience steadily mounting delight, as you realize the filmmakers have taken enormous risks, gotten away with them and made a movie that is completely original, and as familiar as an old shoe.
TIME Magazine
Richard Corliss
All attitude and low aptitude. Its function is to italicize the Coens' giddy contempt toward people who talk and think Minnesotan.
Film.com
Shannon Gee
Has a murder mystery, a heist gone wrong, tragedy, comedy, and well flushed out characters that are both simple and complex at the same time.
