It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

You get different stories and characters, not all of them connected on an obvious level. Actually they seem to be quite random, but the essence is about life and how you live it. The loneliness we go through and how we deal with it. This is depicted very well in most scenes, but could also make for a very tough watch for most people.The fact, that you get people who are workers (or were in some instances) and not a look into a higher society area, make this coherent, but you may miss some needed distraction. The characters are all very well played, though I'm not sure, we get "real" actors here or just plain people. Whatever the case, they are doing a good job and the feel of watching a documentary elevates the whole thing too.
