When i first saw Fargo it seemed to be very short, which might be attributed to it's 98 minutes running time. In the long run, it turned out to be the Coen brothers' best effort.
If you want to relax, simply switch your brain off and enjoy the movie. Fargo is considered to be a masterpiece, but i'd name it an above-average movie. It's might not surpass the notoriety of Barton Fink (1991) or the fame of The Big Lebowski (1998) and the Academy Award winning boredom called No Country for Old Men (2007) yet it is fun to watch.
If you want to analyze Fargo, you won't get far. The characters are one-dimensional and the humor is actually "humor" yet the Coen brothers restrained themselves more than in, say, Barton Fink.
