"I could appreciate the visual appeal but otherwise just couldn't get into it. Half way though the movie I realized it wasn't supposed to be a comedy...right ? Really boring to me aside from whatever I found so funny. "

"9.5/10. Groundbreaking Orson Welles masterpiece. Vanguard plot, acting, direction techniques. Regarded by many as greatest film of all time, but obviously dated and challenging for modern viewers to appreciate. "

"I found it riveting. Amazing to me that if it were in color I might not realize the age. I can see why it’s so revered, maybe not best ever but excellent, especially for it’s time. "
