Aggravating plot holes in otherwise great movies - a list of 15

There’s nothing worse than a smart-alec film fan.We’ve all done it, of course. Picked apart a cheesy blockbuster for its perceived flaws. Poked holes in some sloppy plot logic. Proposed another ending that would have made oh so much more sense.The fact is, though, we’re often not as smart as we think we are. Often, films are simply more interested in telling a story than in bulletproofing themselves against pedants.Sometimes, even widely circulated complaints are totally fatuous. People watch...

CITIZEN KANE: T for Technique and T for Tragedy

Citizen Kane is the greatest movie ever made, but it’s not the greatest movie Orson Welles ever made. In his lifetime, he described the movie as a millstone around his neck. No one could ever appreciate anything else he made because it was always held to that impossible standard. With some distance and critical reappraisal behind us, now we can see that he never really failed to live up to the promise of Citizen Kane. If anything, he surpassed it. Kane reinvented filmmaking, but it looks down...
