I've never found Citizen Kane to be boring. I always think it has a very clever structure with some emotive and amusing exchanges, and the technical aspects are, for a film released in 1940, phenomenal.
I haven't yet bought a 4K Ultra HD release of a black-and-white film – I am likely to buy Parasite and It's a Wonderful Life in the next month or two – so I don't know whether this is one to upgrade, especially as Criterion releases are generally very expensive.
I have three different releases in my collection (one DVD, two Blu-ray including the 75th Anniversary), so I'm in no rushed to upgrade – perhaps in a few years when it's in the 2 for £25 offer.
