Casablanca:What makes it great?

This film is so remarkably boring. The tone of the Bogart is so contrived and self aware that I can't buy into his character. He is just a two bit actor making a buck and I feel he really didn't give two craps about the film.

He worked with some babes, drank some hooch and got paid. I can't suspend my disbelief. I feel like I'm watching a theater troupe fresh out of college attempt to make a historical debut.

The possibility of getting blown to bits in an instant and nobody thinks it''s a good idea to have fun and hump? The romance of this movie stinks. I don't buy the loving aspect.

This movie is nothing but right wing propaganda to pretend like America knew nothing of the Nazis or had no desire to take part in the imperial war effort.

I think this movie is a landmark in terms of using propaganda in film.
