    Agree or disagree: Anyone who says that Citizen Kane is the greatest movie ever made is a nitwit.

        I don't think it's the greatest movie ever, but to say it is doesn't make that person a "nitwit." It absolutely revolutionized cinematography and was completely unique in its time.

        There are certainly other contenders, but claiming that Kane is the greatest of all time, provided there's a good rationale, isn't disqualifying. It was brilliant. It was certainly a better film than Gone With The Wind.

        I love that 100 percent feeling when I'm the first vote. I really do.

        I tried to watch it. Turned it off 2/3 through. I get it was groundbreaking in the time, but its like saying that some sprinter in 1915 was the best ever when guys now are way faster.

        I don't even agree that it was groundbreaking in its time. There are many, many other movies from the 1939-1941 era which are technically FAR ahead of Citizen Kane. That's just something that people like to say. It's complete balderdash.

        Not my favorite movie, but it was revolutionary. Certainly not a nitwit if you think it was the greatest ever.

        I don't believe there is such a thing as greatest movie ever. Is Citizen Kane great? Definitely

        That’s a silly question. It is possible to disagree with someone and not consider them a nitwit.

        Are you saying, then, that it is merely a coincidence that all of the people who tell you that Citizen Kane is the greatest movie ever HAPPEN to be nitwits?
