A lot can happeniin theimiddle of nowhere.
The sixth collaboration of filmmakers Joel and Ethan Coen, Fargo brings the Coen Brothers' unique sensibility to the frozen Minnesota winter, capturing the pathos of a kidnapping scheme gone wildly wrong. Its literate script, nuanced performances and crisp direction have received the industry's highest honors, including nominations for seven Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director.

Best film of '96 - 4.25 out of 5 (3/21/1999)
Fargo is a weird, twised, and demented movie. I LOVE IT!! Great performances all around, wonderfully dark, and full of twists and turns, Fargo is the Coens' best work. The picture has a couple of flaws but it's so slight I have no problem giving the best rating, and the audio is pretty good, but it's not 5.1 and the surround could have used more. Features are pretty run-of-the-mill except for the odd feature of being able to watch other movies' trailers, something eliminated from most later disc

Excellent movie - 4.25 out of 5 (12/4/1998)
This is a great film, with suspense, and dark humor. The disc is well done, with a superb video transfer. Never has snow looked so good. The sound, on the other hand, could have been 5.1, but it's alright. I think Polygram is afraid to release their films in 5.1, or something. As far as buying it goes, I highly reccomend that you do so!
