This is a shitty review. I have no idea if Fargo (the series) is any good. But the critic is either focusing on shit thats irrelevant as useful criticism or they cant articulate what it is that theyre feeling about the show. For instance... But this is tired territory. The terrain of the white male antihero—and the struggle of defining masculinity in the modern world—has been trod over and over again, on both the small and the silver screen. Yes, we know that gore can be unexpectedly gorgeous. Yes, we know that good men sometimes break bad. Yes, we even know that sometimes, a man on-screen is a cipher for the devil. And yes—we even know that all of this is funny, in a dark, cynical way. Yes, well, pointing out that its not breaking ground is also terrible criticism. Its lazy and not useful. If you even consider this not criticism and merely a review, its still not really providing useful information. avclub/review/fargo-elaborate-gorgeous-fan-service-203325
