Dear lord I loved this

Who knew Jim from The Office would direct one of the finest horror films of the decade

The world-building, atmosphere, and sound design of this film are all impeccable

The acting is top-notch. Emily Blunt gives the performance of her life. Krasinski is also amazing especially whenever **** starts to hit the fan and he goes into Dad-protection-mode. The kid actors do a great job.

The scares are excellent outside of 1 or 2 cheesy jumps. The tension is built masterfully and I was on the edge of my seat for a good 30-40 minutes straight during the peak of the action.

Seriously go see this people, it deserves to be a huge hit and it's really an extraordinary experience. 9.5/10, only docking the half point for the aforementioned cheap jump scares and a couple questionable character decisions/minor plot holes.

^My brother saw that last night and was just saying this morning how fantastically made the movie is. Super stoked to hear that John Krasinski hit it out of the ball park. He deserves it.

After two decades of hearing how amazing Fargo was, I was finally disappointed by it tonight. No where near as complex as I expected it to be after all that praise.

So I'm not alone!
I only got around to watching the movie after I finished the `1st season of the (amazing) tv series... and while it wasn't a bad or boring movie, I was seriously underwhelmed.

I really need to see Fargo again. I'm not a huge fan of those Coen brothers movies, but I think I really liked it. I remember it as a quite funny movie.

The few other Coen movies I really enjoy:

- Burn After Reading
- No Country for Old Men
- Intolerable Cruelty
- A Serious Man

I'm a huge Coen fan! But Fargo .. well, I assume it was because of just how well the tv show was made - it set the bar really high. Had I seen the movie before the tv show, I'd probably rate it higher, but...well, as it is, it's one of the weakest imo Coen movies.
A Serious Man is by far my favorite of them all, don't really know why, it just speaks to me.
