Always a bit wary of any Coen Brothers films after the terrible hudsucker proxy and a couple of others that although not as bad are a bit hit and miss. However, Fargo, along with no country for old men, are, for me, their best films by far.

Fargo is a dark, sometimes violent, crime tale with black humour running all through it. It looks amazing with the snow setting and the film score really adds to the mood and story. Excellent acting throughout with Frances Mcdormand outstanding but the rest of cast were equally as good.
