Full disclosure-- I am a Jack White fan so I was happy to get a no-frills documentary that primarily focused on Jack's playing. Filmed largely in black and white he delivers unvarnished rock with the White Stripes. There are no dancers, few cuts away from the musicians and minimal material recording his musings and life away from these immediate performances. Too many rock documentaries contain pontifications by music critics, roadies, past romantic interests and bandmates. This has virtually none of that stuff. It delivers a slice of Jack and the White Stripes. If you are fan, or want a tasteful introduction to the music, you will like it. If not, there is nothing here for you.
