Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

shemarnold Finally got round to seeing this and I was rather disappointed. It is slow paced and sometimes that's not a bad thing but it seems the reason in this case is that the movie wouldn't be long enough otherwise and still don't know why the scene with the infatuated Japanese man was in the movie! More padding? It's not all bad though. It's a ok movie and there are good acting performances all round, funny dialogue and good on screen chemistry between the actors. Just a little overrated. Go in with lower expectations and you won't be as disappointed as I was.

cinephile-27690 Roger Ebert and Gene Siskel both called this the best movie of 1996. I think it's the best LIVE ACTION one. But they did say something I agree with: "This is why I love the movies!" Right on! This is one of the best movies I have ever seen! The movie has strong profanity(mostly from Steve Bucuesmi) but it is very good! If you are a Veggie Tales fan Phil Vischer named this one of his favorite movies. This was nominated for Best Picture but lost to The English Patient-that's a good movie but Fargo is WAY better. Now, what makes it work so well? The dialogue is natural, the way everyone talks. it's funny at times as well. The plot is unique ,also. How many other movies are about a man who plot's his wife's murder to have her money to pay off a debt?This is a great adventure to witness-and it is only 98 minutes long!

maxtbuettner Fargo is about how far Jerry Lundegaard (William H. Macy) will go to get some money and how out of control the situation becomes. The film follows pregnant chief police Marge Gunderson (Frances McDormand) as she tries to piece it all together. Frances McDormand gives a wonderful, Oscar winning performance as the multi-layered police chief. On the outside she has a comical personality, but she is also deeply caring. The movie is rounded together with fantastic performances from Steve Buscemi, Peter Stormare, and William H. Macy. The movie is beautifully shot by Roger Deakins, earning him his second Oscar nomination. The greatest aspect of the film is how the Coen brother's combated the barren landscape with dark comedy. The mixture of irony, awkward moments, and laughing at inappropriate times really make this film enjoyable to watch and a great film over all.

figueroa_j Cohen dark, very dark humor in addition to the cast, Frances McDormand heading this thriller that you want to watch several times. One of those films where you obviously see the end coming but, how?
