What?

Rating: 6/10 (7 May 1999)

"Fargo" is interesting, well photographed, and well acted. Siskel & Ebert loved it. It was awarded two Oscars. And I didn't much admire it. I found it highly overrated- resulting in devastation! I had expected the thrill of my life- and was depressed that the film was nothing more than... what it was. Not to say the movie was bad, but my disappointment overshadows what greatness it does have. The accents are hilarious, Roger Deakins does an amazing job with the cinematography, and McDormand and Macy are highly amusing. A Let Down
Rating: 2 1/2 out of 3 and 8 out of 10 and 80 out of 100
