THE MOVIE:

Slim and Queen’s first date takes an unexpected turn when a policeman pulls them over for a minor traffic violation. When the situation escalates, Slim takes the officer’s gun and shoots him in self-defence. Now labelled cop killers in the media, Slim and Queen feel that they have no choice but to go on the run and evade the law. When a video of the incident goes viral, the unwitting outlaws soon become a symbol of trauma, terror, grief and pain for people all across the country.

VIDEO QUALITY /AUDIO QUALITY:

Queen and Slim comes to UHD with a smashing HDR10 visual and Dolby Atmos audio. You won’t have any complaints about the video and audio with this one. It looks great, with deep dark thick colors and sounds terrific with the immersive audio track. I tested on a sound bar set up in addition to my home theater and it still sounds stellar. So for those with the not so elaborate set up you should be pleased as well.
