Fargo Ratings & Reviews
- Arthur ZepedaMarch 24, 2026Fargo There are not many movies I can put on at any time and just enjoy, but Fargo is one of them. It is funny, it is dark, and it is horrifyingly sad all at the same time. Somehow the Coen Brothers pulled that off without it feeling weird. The cast is great, the story keeps you hooked, and there is a character in this film that I guarantee you will not forget. The whole thing just works. If you have not seen Fargo, watch it. If you have, you already know it holds up every time.
