Fargo

"A strikingly mature, uniqueentertainment that plays on many levels ... all satisfying."

"Stands out as the Coen brothers' warmest, most accessible offering to date -- despite its frosty Minnesota setting."

"The Coens remain effortlessly ahead of the American field."

"Huntingly photographed by Roger Deakins with great, expressive use of white-outs that sometimes make the characters appear to be moving through a dream."

"To watch it is to experience steadily mounting delight, as you realize the filmmakers have taken enormous risks, gotten away with them and made a movie that is completely original, and as familiar as an old shoe."

"Written and directed with the verve, painstaking nuance and outrageously black humour that have become the mainstay of a Coen movie."

"The beauty of the film is in the subtle detail of the dialogue and performances which continue to enchant on repeat viewings."
