It's generally a good movie and pretty watchable, but in no way is it the greatest movie of all-time. In truth, probably not even in the top 1000.

It's a boring movie and I am surprised that this is one of the top movies of all time. However, the cinematic techniques were pretty good for the time the movie was made.

However, it absolutely does not hold up today. Citizen Kane is a dull, boring and unsatisfying film that while yes, for the time its technical achievements were a marvel to see, did not live up to the hype for me. To me, this is not one of the top 100 films of all time anymore.… Expand

This movie is incredibly boring, and while it did bring to the table many modern filming techniques it's nothing to go on about.

Decent performance from Welles, but the plot meanders so much by the end you'll be wondering what the point was. Nice cinematography.

Would I say it's the greatest film of all time? No. Would I say it's even among a favourite of mine? Not really. The performances were good and I love how much depth Kane has as a character but the movie dragged in some parts and the pacingWould I say it's the greatest film of all time? No. Would I say it's even among a favourite of mine? Not really. The performances were good and I love how much depth Kane has as a character but the movie dragged in some parts and the pacing wasn't consistent, At least to me. It's alright but I really don't get all the hype behind it.… Expand

It's kind of mid, I don't know, maybe if they cut it down an hour it'd be a masterpiece.
