    The documentary’s real coup is the archive material Jackson and director Ben Hirsch pull from a decade’s worth of home videos shot by her ex-husband, music video director René Elizondo Jr. ... Jackson is ultimately in charge of the documentary’s candour, but she frequently uses her friends, family and colleagues to speak for her.

    “Janet Jackson” is a sanctioned documentary with the feel of a YouTube news clip aggregation. Jackson is interviewed extensively, but largely provides play-by-play, rarely color commentary.

    Janet’s talent and career are certainly deserving of close examination and celebration, but they prove almost impossible to disentangle from the fact that while she was one of the biggest stars of her pop era, her sibling was arguably the biggest and most controversial star in pop history.
