I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
There is definitely an excellent idea hidden in the background of the film. Unfortunately, it's difficult to find it.
