I found it a total waste of time.  But maybe that's what it was
supposed to convey--a black-and-white, down-and-out, going-nowhere
life in lumpen-ville, where the characters look upon a visit to
Cleveland ("It's very beautiful.") as if it were Fiji.  Well, you
share their myopia and their misery.  Bo-ring.

Pilots have a saying: "Any landing you can walk away from is a
good landing."  Only by applying this logic could you call
"Stranger Than Paradise" a good movie.
