Good to a point

Rating: Null/10 (30 November 1998)

Fargo had the potential to be one of the Coen Brothers best films. However, the ending comes so quickly and suddenly and applies little to the preceding portion of the film that it almost renders the entire experience pointless. Marge simply stumbles across the crime scene using clues which she learned early on in the film. Essentially everything between could have been cut out and the film would still have been completely logical.
