Innovation, mostly. Regardless, it's simply a film that most agree is great and important, but very few actually consider it the number 1 movie of all time.

because it called out usa as being eternally a joke which europeans love to hear and since they have nothing better to do on earth anymore now that they realized how pathetic they are from world wars 1 and 2, they critique film and occasionally soccer fields and they rate highly all anti-usa propaganda

Then tell me so I know, due to it being considered the best film ever made I had very high expectations, I was expecting something of the same quality as seven samurai, technically the film is like a decade ahead of its time but I don't see anything special after that

it's pretty good plotwise... you really feel for the guy.

I may not see probably because of my taste, technically I agree, but for me the best films are those that play on your emotions

I had the same opinion you did, when I first saw it, then I watched it again fifteen years later and was blown away by it, not just on a technical level, but by its wit, its insights, its wild invention. Not my favorite movie, but objectively it's right up there.

Well, the playing on the emotions, that's a standard you're setting, and even then, I find a lot of emotional moments in Kane. When the kid is taken away from his parents (and look at how that scene is shot, for fuck's sake), when the wife's opera fails completely - it's so raw and cringe-inducing.
