Classic

Rating: 10/10 (28 August 2016)

This is my first review and I've been a IMDb member for 9 straight years. Fargo is the type of movie that absolutely forced me to write something about it. It has been on my watch list for more than 8 years or so and I have no idea what I have been thinking by not watching it. It's the absolute definition of a perfect movie.
Let's start with the cinematography. For me, the snow is one of the main characters here and boy does it fit well. It actually creates this negative background that adds beauty to every scene and accentuates every color and movement. The camera unfolds slowly and steadily so you could take your time and enjoy the beautiful shots.
The characters and dialogue. As a big Tarantino pre-Kill Bill fan, this is a little gem. Every third line is an instant classic and is delivered brilliantly. Everyone did an amazing job (Frances McDormand absolutely killed it), nothing seemed forced or out of place and every exchange is hilarious in its own way. There is not one single scene I would cut out or one actor that did not deliver.
I will stop writing now because if you haven't seen it, you should do it right away instead of reading this lousy review. You're in for a treat that you will want to watch again and again for years to come.
