Negative Positive
Title: Realism, if you want it.
Review: Once again we have a degraded piece of crap so unredeemingly sick and twisted that the human thing to do is to try to invent a 'reason' for it. This movie depicts a bunch of criminals who botch a kidnapping scheme and then try to cover it up in the dumbest way possible. Yes, the actors are good at their roles. But, so what?Artsy fartsy types make a living pretending that crap is art and Fargo is no exception. 20 years from now people will still be watching 'Seven Samurai' and 'Rear Window' and no one will even remember garbage like 'Fargo' and 'Natural Born Killers' except to wonder, "What were they thinking?."Fargo does have one redeeming value though. Hollywood almost always depicts criminals as people with intelligence gone bad. In real life criminals are every bit as stupid as the ones in Fargo. I recommend Fargo to anyone who wants to learn what real criminals are like. Fargo has the reality... not 'The Godfather'.
