It's good. Think of it more as a documentary of the tour, rather than a live concert. The mixing together of different shows was annoying at first, but I thought it was done well once I got used to it. Polly Harvey has an interview about 10 or so minutes in which she explains why it is the way it is as well. The live footage is spliced with all sorts interviews and backstage footage, so it really does have more the feel of documentary, though all the songs in the tracklisting are presented in more or less full. After you watch the movie, there's also another 30 minute interview type thing which was pretty cool. If you're already a PJ Harvey fan it's definitely worth it, especially at around $12... I'm not sure whether it would win new fans over, it's sort of more scrappy than it is professional, though the sound quality is pretty decent. I'd give it a thumbs up.
