Newspaper magnate, Charles Foster Kane is taken from his mother as a boy and made the ward of a rich industrialist. As a result, every well-meaning, tyrannical or self-destructive move he makes for the rest of his life appears in some way to be a reaction to that deeply wounding event.

Artistically, it is perfect and the story behind it is really interesting. However, the actual entertainment value of it is lacking and the acting really isn't very good. It's still a classic that everyone who wants to learn about cinema should watch

Citizen Kane I can appreciate the impact this film had on cinema. The cinematography is fantastic for its time. The story of Kane is intriguing. However, I found the film an absolute bore. I would suggest to avoid this, unless you want to study film. 6/10 #NicksMiniReview https://t.co/QQaD7ekObs

Let's talk about the timeless masterpiece Citizen Kane is :)

I normally read reviews before going into a black and white movie to either curb my expectations or to increase my expectations. Citizen Kane reviews in particular were mixed, some said it's overrated and people like it just to be seen More

[9.0/10] There’s a scene toward the end of *Citizen Kane* where the title character walks down one of his hollow palace’s many gaping hallways. As he does, scores of reflections of the man cascade into infinity on either side of him, the product of two mirrors dividing the various shades of the More

It’s Citizen Kane. What can I say? The thing is, a movie like Psycho was just as influential, but with its twists exposed, it’s tricks copied, and our understanding of mental illness progressed, much of it doesn’t stand up. It’s more interesting as a case study than as a film in its own righ More
