Is he a heroic philanthropist or a reckless man-child? In any case, one of the most fascinating of characters.

Star Wars is a good film, no doubt. Although many critics don't consider it in the top 10. At least, from whatever listed those critics have published. Beale64's list is pretty similar, if not accurate of many high profile movie critics.

The film is so convincingly written that it's hard to imagine that it even had a script.The trouble with filmmaking is that only the profitable ideas tend to get produced... I think there would be more films as good as, even better, than Citizen Kane if the studios took bigger risks and gave more directors complete creative freedom.

mattleematlee has nailed this film on the head. I have already paid homage to it on this site but nothing can adequately express my admiration for this film. As a movie buff for many years who has an interest in world cinema, I have to say that no country has produced a work as amazing as Citizen Kane, the cinematic equivalent of Shakespeare, Dante, Cervantes et al .

Groundbreaking doesn't even come close. Everything that could ever be done in any film was done in Kane. It's so far ahead of it's time (still) that one can only watch and gawk. It's odd, off kilter, scary, deep, huge, unique...there is Kane, then there's everything else. The greatest film of all time, with the greatest American actor/director of all time, Orson Welles.

It's a tragedy, but not a weeping tragedy. It's subtle.

Everything about this film is ground-breaking; highly technical camera tricks, special effects, make-up, sound, storytelling conventions- which weren't conventions before this film- characterisation shorthand, its use of montage, on and on.

this is how you run a goddamned conversation in a film. there are a lot of people who can't even do interruptions convincingly in scenes, and here's citizen kane doing it perfectly almost 70 years ago. cheers to this movie.

its is one of the the first film to use flashbacks, the cinematography, the make up, script and the acting are amazing.
