Rank the Coen Brothers films according to your personal taste:

  1. The Big Lebowski
  2. Blood Simple
  3. Miller's Crossing
  4. No Country for Old Men
  5. Fargo
  6. True Grit
  7. Raising Arizona
  8. Oh Brother Where Art Thou?
  9. Barton Fink
  10. The Hudsucker Proxy
  11. The Man Who Wasn't There
  12. A Serious Man
  13. Burn After Reading
  14. Intolerable Cruelty
  15. The Ladykillers
I think the first four on my list are brilliant, the second four are exceptional, the next few are all varying degrees of OK, but the last two are terrible.
 
I have seen most, but not all 15 so I can't play.

My wife and I are apparently the only two people on earth that love Intolerable Cruelty. I think Clooney is hilarious.

I've only seen three. I was really surprised how much I liked, "Oh Brother, Where Art Thou."

I've only seen 7, as it turns out.

1. Lebowski
2. Fargo
3. Raising Arizona
4. Oh Brother
5. No Country
6. True Grit
7. Man Who Wasn't There

2-6 are pretty interchangeable for me, and 7 is just a shitty movie, IMO.

Nothing beats the Lebowski. That movie really ties this resume together.
 
I am a huge fan of the brothers and have seen all their films. I've seen most of them more than once, and several of them multiple times. I'll bet I've seen all or most of Lebowski 20 times.

I think most critics would say I have Miller's Crossing too high and Fargo too low
 
i'll give my top 5.
1. blood simple . absolutely blew me away first time i saw it way back when.
2. raising arizona. i own this one on dvd.an absolute friggin comedy classic mordecai.
3. no country for old men. javier bardem is one of the greatest antiheros ever. "call it"
4. fargo. i own this one also. perfect mix of dark yet funny.
5. B.L. perhaps best seen on weed.probably moves to #1 after a marley moment.
 
Based on what I have seen:
1. Oh Brother
2. No Country for Old Men
3. Raising Arizona
4. Big Lebowski
5. Fargo
6. Intolerable Cruelty
7. The Hudsucker Proxy
8. Barton Fink
9. Burn After Reading
10. The Ladykillers
