I've just seen it. Overall, nice to watch, somewhat educational (not about technical aspects but more about BTC history) and I would recommend it especially to new people.

Although I think that for people unfamiliar with bitcoin, it may build slightly negative picture of it. They first show sites/businesses such as silkroad, mt gox, bitinstant, tradehill and later all of them go down (with some of the owners facing jail). Someone not familiar with btc affairs could think that there are no serious bitcoin businesses left.

Throughout the movie they were showing USD price at that time, which ranged $0-$300. They only briefly mentioned that price exceeded $1000. Also, a bit shame they didn't really show the scale of adoption and acceptance, leaving impression that bitcoin never went outside the narrow circle of geek community.

That being said, I kind of appreciate they aimed rather for the honest documentary than pure bitcoin propaganda.
