The camera work is also really, really sloppy (a common factor in many documentaries that I can't really see a purpose of, just because it's a documentary doesn't mean you don't have to put some effort into it).

It is, however, funny. Very much so. Much more so than most comedies I've seen.
If it's enjoyable and it's a documentary, I would say it's a good documentary. I know I liked it a lot.

Is a stellar piece of journalism? No. Is it a powerful logical argument? No. But then it doesn't claim to be either of those things.
