Title: It is not their best.
Review: Okay, I never thought I would be one of those people who didn't "get" a critically acclaimed movie, but there is a first for everything I guess. Fargo was good. It was entertaining, not particularly funny, but good. If I didn't know about all the hype surrounding it, I would probably give it 3 stars out of 4. Roger Ebert called this one of the best movies he has ever SEEN? Now THAT I don't understand. And you can't say that I just don't "get" Coen brothers movies, because I thought Raising Arizona was brilliant. I just didn't see that in here. Oh well. As for the DVD itself, I was extremely disappointed. For such a revered movie, it had absolutely no bonus material whatsoever. It had the trailer, and that is about it. A complete waste. So I give the movie 3 out of 4 stars, and the DVD 2 out of 5.
