I watched it a second time the next day (the beauty of Netflix), and I was still riveted the whole way through -- even more so the second time, actually. There is intentionally no "story" at all, really, so it's pointless to give it a letter grade it on that basis. I think it's GVS's best film to date, and one of the best films I've seen in a while. Then I found out it won the Palme d'Or and Best Director prizes at the 2003 Cannes. It seems as if few people have seen this film.
