Fargo Ratings & Reviews

  • Arthur ZepedaMarch 24, 2026
    Fargo 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.

    Classic. The perfect dark comedy. Brilliant script. Even better acting. Cast to perfection.
  • makdelartMarch 6, 2026
    A delicious mix of masterful storytelling, acting, violence and the Cohen brothers' inimitable humour. It's got a great vibe, ya?

    "Life is a tragedy when seen in close-up, but a comedy in long shot." I think that Charlie Chaplin wrote the review for this one.

    O jeez Marge what a film
  • Joakim FranssonDecember 18, 2025
    You see my face!? I got shot in the fucking face!
  • johnclintonlopezDecember 6, 2025
    Fantastic story and character development.
  • Eric BakkeOctober 11, 2024
    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.
  • mickerdooDecember 1, 2025
    Hilarious true crime in that usual Coen Brothers style. Great accents. Phenomenal blunder. Macy, McDormand and Buscemi are a riot.
  • Rob MacKinnonAugust 21, 2025
    Perfection.
  • tellumAugust 18, 2025
    Almost a parody on crime dramas with some hilarious scenes.
  • wipeout630August 14, 2025
    McDormand and Macy were top notch. Compelling story, satisfying conclusion. Will watch again!
  • PatrikStarJuly 12, 2025
    Oh yeah, needed to rewatch this Oh yah, its still a good movie
  • Keekay DMay 10, 2025
    Classic. Straight to the point and keeps viewers engaged. No dumb side stories that have nothing to do with the main plot
  • Jacob ThompsonApril 5, 2025
    Fargo blends an unbelievable plot with a cast of people who can all be a certified idiot. Despite this, the real idiot at the end of the movie is you (You'll need to watch the movie until the end and look up facts to see what I mean).
