"Citizen Kane," easily.

I don't hate it, but "The Deer Hunter" bored the frick out of me in any scenes where Walken wasn't playing with guns.

There's a third that I'm just sick of hearing about, but naming it would completely derail this thread as really pissed-off fans descended to yell at me for not liking something they like.

I think Citizen Kane suffers from the fact that everyone who has seen it for the first time in the last few decades already knows the ending thanks to the internet and it showing up #1 on every greatest movies poll. Given the entire premise of the movie is figuring out what "Rosebud" means, it kinda takes the suspense and ultimate emotional payoff away if you know it before hand.

It's like knowing the ending of Seven or The Usual Suspects. Yeah they're well made movies, but the final reveal is what makes them legendary.
