I could not get past the news reel the first three times I watched it, but once I did, I could see why everyone was calling it a master piece. Great performances from Welles, and some of the best cinematography ever recorded. |

There is a reason this is consistently at the top of movie lists - simply put it is as near a perfect film as you will find. Casting, directing, score, cinematography, story - it's the most well-put together film I have seen. |

There is a reason why this movie is number 1 on both of AFI's Top 100 movie lists. While I don't think it's as good as Casablanca, it is a marvel of a film and I believe one of the first films to ever use flashbacks as a way of telling stories. Definite must see to film buffs. |

Rosebud |
|
I first watched this film in an intro to film class and the professor told me that this is widely considered my many critics to be a perfect movie. A lot of people cannot get past the begining, however if you can get into this movie and follow it you can appreciate it as the masterpiece that it is. Orson Welles gives a phenominal performance, and the simple word Rosebud is so haunting right until the end of the movie. |

Not the greatest film of all time |
|
I hear that this is one of the favorite movies of all time from movie critics. Reading some of the reviews on here show that the general public likes it too.
I had to watch this movie in a film class in college. It is one of the most boring movies I have ever seen. My teacher raved on and on about how great of a movie it is and why. Sorry..I just don't feel that way.
One reviewer on here said this is one of the most overrated films of all time - I agree.
I know someone that insulted me because I did not like this film. They said I should like it because so many critics love it and so do many others. Ironically, this person has never seen it.
Now if others have actually seen this movie and really love it, then that is fine. We all have different tastes. We like and dislike m... |
