Pretty much every Coen brothers film is at least OK, and most get better with age and. Fargo is definitely one of the great ones.
There are a few of their movies that have felt forced/too mechanical for me, but I greatly enjoy their work for the most part.
Hard to say for sure, but I think I'd go Raising Arizona as my all-time favorite from them.
I haven't seen Hail, Caesar! or Suburbicon yet.
Hated The Big Lewbowski the first time I saw it, it was talked up sooooo fucking much by my family and a handful of friends, and it failed to live up to the ridiculously high expectations I had. I watched it maybe 5 years after that with much lowered expectations and understood why people enjoyed it still much. It's got problems, but it was an entertaining film.
Also loved No Country for Old Men. Didn't feel like a Coen Brothers movie, but it was damn near perfect. The anticlimactic finish to Brolin's story was upsetting but perfect.
