It's hard to overstate how important the film is to cinema. It pretty much established what the modern movie is.

That said, based strictly off of entertainment value. IMO it is just absolutely terrible.

That's interesting. I'm not a film guy at all, and it certainly never occurred to me that it pioneered some of the key stuff in modern movies (although that totally makes sense). But I remember enjoying it! The pacing felt quite good, there were some mysteries and character drama. Not a top movie for me personally, but pretty watchable for a B&W movie.
