The Best Movie Ever?

Rating: 8/10 (9 December 2017)

Citizen Kane is acclaimed by most as the best American made movie of all time. This had my expectations quite high going into the film. The movie starts off really interesting as it appears you are just watching a news reel, which were commonly shown before movies in that time. The way the movie is made is just beautiful from the beautiful sets to the amazing camera-work. This film was honestly difficult for me to hold my attention at times, as to me the stakes were never that high. Even though i think the movie struggles from that it is still a fantastic movie, the ending was a surprise to me as I was clueless about what "rosebud" had meant until the big reveal
