watchable

Rating: Null/10 (16 December 2009)

The editing, the lighting, the visuals, the acting, the script: almost everything about this movie is watchable. I enjoyed it. Orson Welles did a fantastic job directing and writing this movie. I know why so many people love it, and why it always sits atop many "best of" lists. I could quote several lines from this movie before I had even seen it. The story is intriguing, and Welles does an excellent job portraying Charles Kane. So while I loved the movie very much, and it was truly groundbreaking for its time, I don't think that I could watch it over and over like some people do, and it is definitely not at the top of my "best of" list.
