I find the idea great. There are signs of really interesting aspects -> like connecting real-life stories with Havel's plays... I love the scenes when for instance the author works in a brewery and suddenly it turns out a play. I think this was really well done (and the connection between drama and life is really important in Havel's story)
on the other side, many scenes we not well developed, often I didnt know which character was who (for instance when Olga slips him the envelope announcing a death of someone.. I didn't get who was it.., or at the end when Dubcek, I reckon, offers to candidate on Havel's behalf. Also, many actors didnt play the role that well, and overall it was not a drama that Havel would deserve (I am big fan of his plays). There were too few scene presenting his quotes, ideas... At the final scene he just raises hand on the balcony... I find it a big shame... a final speech would totaly gradate the story... (I missed gradation of the story throughout the whole movie)
