My opinion in a nutshell: it was definitely worth seeing. Lots of great shots inside three incredibly different regions of Iraq, and the film captures many normal Iraqi citizens discussing US occupation and various daily matters. Not surprisingly, there are practically no women shown in the movie.
There is no narrative, and, for better or worse, no insight into the differences between the Sunni, Shia, and Kurds.
It's nice to see the real people of Iraq, as opposed to the terrorist caricatures created by sensationalist news snippets.
In terms of the footage, it appeared to be a mix of film and DV, with good quality the most part with some soft and muddy shots here and there. For the situations captured, the quality of the footage actually seems quite good.
Check it out if you get the chance...
