citizen kane. I mean I get it. If you geek out on cinematography history and the first of doing stuff but its just plain boring.
For me I just feel like I'm not equipped to judge it. I haven't lived in the time period it first came out in and I've enjoyed the options of thousands of different forms of entertainment at my whim for most of my life (mid 30s). I imagine when there were far fewer things going on and options to choose from you might see this movie in a whole different light.
All that being said I like some older movies just fine, like Harvey which came out 9 years later, so maybe my judgement is fine and Citizen Kane is boring as fuck. 🤷
