It's considered great b/c Orson Welles was 24 when he made the goddamned thing. He does a lot of experimental cinematographic techniques like distressing the film stock, and always showing Kane in low angle shots to make him seem larger and more ominous. It's "shot" very well, but in all honesty it doesn't hold up over time.
