The Law of Vacant Places Ratings & Reviews
Flickering Myth
Shaun Munro
While not returning to screens with quite the same surging electricity of the two prior premieres, "The Law of Vacant Places" is nevertheless a rock solid introduction to Minnesota's latest batch of loveable low-lives.
Decider
Sean T. Collins
None of this feels like cheap heat from fanservice, mind you. It's just a deft demonstration of Hawley's understanding of the Coens' source material, and his ability to recombine its constituent elements in new forms like Legos.
Refinery29
Courtney E. Smith
Despite their different ages, the two are played by the same actor. Does that sound like a good idea? If you're shaking your head please know: I am dubious also. But, let's see where this goes.
Rolling Stone
Noel Murray
Hawley seems to enjoy just piecing together a narrative, one chunk at a time. The point - if there is one - can wait.
Under the Radar
Kyle Mullin
It's funny, it's dark, it's unpredictable and-best of all-it's unconventional and subverts our expectations again and again.
Baltimore Sun
Zane Moses
It has been a long wait, but the spiritual successor to the Coen Brothers classic is back in the most delicious way as Season 3 of Fargo kicked off with "The Law of Vacant Places."
indieWire
Ben Travers
No matter how it shakes out, the 90-minute Fargo premiere did an expedient job setting up one helluva mystery.
New York Times
Scott Tobias
Given Hawley's tendency to amplify the quirks of the original film, Coon may be fighting through the headwinds of outright cartoonishness. But based on the mostly stellar previous seasons, it's best to give him the benefit of the doubt.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Brian Tallerico
It's a beautiful overture, even in the way it includes the line, "And we are not here to tell stories. We are here to tell the truth." Of course, the film and each season of Fargo is a story disguised as truth.
TV Fanatic
Caralynn Lippo
While "The Law of Vacant Places" isn't quite as gripping a start as either Fargo Season 2 Episode 1 or Fargo Season 1 Episode 1, I find myself invested in these characters and their stories, an wondering where this season will manage to spiral out to.
Den of Geek
Nick Harley
I'm not as immediately grabbed by this new story, despite all of the great ingredients and a chef that I can trust, but I'm open minded about this season's potential and hopefully a signature Hawley curve ball shakes off this feeling of déjà vu.
IGN Movies
Matt Fowler
Many of the puzzle pieces feel familiar to the Fargo formula in this opener though that doesn't rob the show of its mirth and majesty.
Entertainment Weekly
Kevin P. Sullivan
Obviously, we've got many, many hours to go, and the seeds of the drama -- as well as the performances -- are uniformly strong.
AV Club
Zack Handlen
I was largely entertained watching "The Law Of Vacant Places," but I found my attention wandering. That's the danger of giving us too much of what we want, maybe.
Tampa Bay Times
Brittany Volk
The Stussy brothers are both played brilliantly by Ewan McGregor, each with his own distinctive look and personality.
Paste Magazine
Kyle Fowle
Sure, there's appeal in the series' winks to the Coen Brothers canon ... as well as its dark humor, but the real meat comes in the form of continually escalating conflicts.
Observer
Vinnie Mancuso
Hawley milked that death-by-AC for all it was worth, spinning and whirling its way from Nikki's apartment to Maurice's cranium, and I won't sit here and tell you the resulting Silly Putty-esque flattening wasn't worth the wait.
