Citizen Kane is the greatest film of all time in my opinion. In my experience everyone who I have talked to that says it is overrated or undeserving of that title has not even seen the movie and is going off of their assumptions (based on the fact it is old and black and white) or what other people have told them (usually just that it is "boring" with bad acting and melodrama). I think they are mistaken and if you actually take the time to watch the movie with an open mind, I think the vast majority of people will really enjoy it. Not necessarily agree that it is the "best ever" but enjoy it I mean. It is slow etc but it is very good with some incredible acting and a fantastic story behind it, both on screen and off. It is even better when you consider the time in which it was made. This film was very innovative and must have been quite jaw-dropping at the time. It influenced many movies to come, down to and including today.
