All Coen Brothers Movies Ranked by Tomatometer. Since their 1984 neo-noir debut Blood Simple, brother directors Joel and Ethan Coen have danced amok across American cinema with mordant...
- Inside Llewyn Davis (2013) Masterful, and a little infuriating by design, the Coens' dark musical explores the torture of an unfulfilled, unmade creative life—like perhaps no other film.
- Barton Fink (1991) At this point in the list (and maybe even before it), we're discussing top tier Coen pictures, all extraordinary films.
- A Serious Man (2009) A little less than a decade before he killed us with that monologue at the end of Call Me By Your Name, Michael Stuhlbarg gave a tragicomic tour de force in the Coens' mesmerizingly unpleasant spin on the Book of Job.
- Raising Arizona (1987) The Coens' uproarious farce stars Nicolas Cage and Holly Hunter as a couple who help them themselves to one fifth of an affluent family’s quintuplets.
- Josh Bell
- Fargo’ The Coens are at their absolute best in this masterpiece that balances pitch-black comedy with startling violence. Set mostly in Minnesota, “Fargo” starts with a botched kidnapping orchestrated by weaselly car dealer Jerry Lundegaard (William H. Macy) as a way to extract money from his wealthy, condescending father-in-law.
- The Big Lebowski’ A relative commercial and critical disappointment when it was released, “The Big Lebowski” has since amassed a huge cult following that surpasses any other Coens movie, with its own unique subculture.
- No Country for Old Men’ The Coens’ only film to win the Oscar for Best Picture is a fusion of their darkly humorous sensibility with author Cormac McCarthy’s sparse nihilism, making for a movie that is both bleak and profound.
- Inside Llewyn Davis’ Although singer-songwriter Llewyn Davis (Oscar Isaac) is fictional, there’s such a strong sense of time and place to this melancholy film that it’s easy to assume that he’s an actual figure from the 1960s New York City folk scene.
- Raising Arizona (1987) Babies are complicated. Raising children in the yin and yang homestead of criminal H.I. "Hi" McDunnough (Nicolas Cage) and his police officer wife Ed (Holly Hunter) gets even more complicated because they stole the child in question.
- No Country for Old Men (2007) Every bullet in this neo-Western crime drama has a purpose. An adaptation of Cormac McCarthy's novel, No Country for Old Men offers a colorless look at drugs and murder on the border.
- The Big Lebowski (1998) Lebowski (a.k.a. the Dude, effortlessly played by Jeff Bridges) didn't sign up to be the star in this L.A. noir, man; he's just, like, stuck here trying to find a new rug.
- Fargo (1996) The plotline for the multi-Oscar-winning dark comedy Fargo is centered on easy money but it comes at the expense of, well, everything. Jerry Lundegaard (William H. Macy) thinks he has the perfect plan to make a fast buck, but every calculation he makes is wrong.
