Opinion | Noah Berlatsky: 'Director Melina Matsoukas is less interested in action than in romance. And that, as it turns out, makes the film both less predictable and more heartbreakingly political.' - NBCNewsTHINK
If this was a typical outlaw epic, you'd expect the violence to escalate. There should be a scene where Queen or Slim or both discover a talent for shooting and/or hand-to-hand combat. There should be explosions and blood and death, as the two former innocents are forced to make difficult, ugly decisions. They should become hardened; they should do terrible things.
The pair elude the cops not because they're bad and dangerous, because most black people they encounter see the police as illegitimate, and refuse to turn them in.
