Director Melina Matsoukas showed her professional rhythm control and plot structure in her debut work "Queen & Slim"
. The whole film is full of lyrical colors that amaze the audience. It is a flawed but very powerful accusation, which is violence against the police. The deep contemplation of discrimination against people of color is also an angry hymn to the government's malicious deprivation of civil rights
. At the same time, the director also joined the passionate and romantic love between the male and female protagonists at the right time
. This road movie is a romantic provocation between social conflict and personal value. The balance between violence and sexiness, hope and despair, reality and fantasy is the focus of this movie. The road to balance is rough, but it is also a time. Meaningful travel
