The documentary ends up both a delightful ’90s time capsule and a sharp analysis of the social and cultural forces that shaped Morissette’s career—for better and worse.

Jagged rides the wave of that excitement, but avoids opportunities to explore deeper below the surface.

Not sure why I was expecting more, but it this is as about as by-the-numbers as music docs get, just a bunch of talking heads waxing rhapsodic. It's only really saved by the strength of the music it chronicles.
