- Rather than a conventional music biopic about an ’80s hip-hop artist and her place in history, “Roxanne Roxanne” is more of a compelling personal saga that happens to be interspersed with music. While there are some plot holes, the story we see on screen of a young girl’s fierce determination is riveting, and the performances are deeply memorable.
