When I first heard about this movie, I thought it was going to be an epic thriller with a good ounce of mystery to it and considering it's in IMDb's top 250 films of all time. But having now watched it all, I'm now really confused as to why so many people like this film to begin with and thought it was a big let down. Apart from a few scenes of felony, the majority of the movie was incredibly boring and the acting was dreadful, most of the characters were really annoying and forgettable, the character of Marge Gunderson (Frances McDormand) is perhaps the most annoying character in the film, will you just quit saying "Yah" already... Apparently the movie also has some elements of comedy but it's all so poorly executed and it just wasn't funny at all.

I honestly think that this is a very overrated movie that's so poorly written, just don't bother with it. However, I will say that I highly recommend that you should watch the Fargo TV series which is far much better than this.
