Plot:
Orson Welles' "Citizen Kane" is widely considered to be the greatest film to ever come out of Hollywood. The film is basically about a group of reporters who are trying to decipher the last word ever ...( read more

Absolutely a terrific movie. Debatable, the best movie ever made. I wont debate. I thought it was a very well made movie, obviously. Anyone with any kind of eye for movies can recognize the greatness of this film, and it's impact on the movie industry. It is interesting to watch a movie such as this, almost 70 years after it was made, after already having seen a couple thousand movies. It's like a rock musician that is just getting around to listening to the Beatles. There are many things to learn from a movie such as this. But on a pure enjoyment level, this movie is top-notch. A classic story about money, greed, lust and love. Perfectly executed, direction-wise, and superb writing, coupled with unbeatable acting make this movie one to truly be admired.
Though certainly not my favorite film, this is still the greatest film made. The mystery-drama is over 65 years old and is still as fresh and entertaining as ever. With a strong performance by Orson Welles, and an somewhat surprising ending, the film is beautifully cinemagraphed and shot. The plot is also intriguing and keeps the viewer entertained and interested through its 2 and a half hour long run time. This film deserves a view by everyone, film buff or not.
A classic for a reason. I never really had an interest in seeing it until recently, as I for some reason assumed it was all hype - no movie could deserve *that* much praise. Maybe it doesn't, but it's still an amazing piece of cinema. In terms of narrative structure, I was surprised by its complexities, which I haven't seen in that many films from the same era. The story really captured my interest, as Kane's rise - and downfall - slowly unravel before your eyes through anecdotes from the people who knew him, thus presenting you with excerpts from the time of his childhood in the western U.S. to his death at Xanadu, his palace. "Rosebud!"
Highly enjoyable. Certainly not all it's cracked up to be, but nevertheless an excellent, thought-provoking film. The strongest element is obviously Welles, who I could watch or listen to for hours on end.
Greatest movie ever? I think not. That title belongs to some movie that has yet to be released and is coming out in the near future.
Maybe I need to watch this again because I didn't care for it.
