Arnold's elegiac and naked picture functions as a road adventure born of Dickens and Kerouac.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Apr 5, 2022

It's all the fixins. Pistol-whipped to perfection. My teeth positively ache for another helping of American Honey; I wanna eat until I pass right out.

| Original Score: A | Jul 2, 2021

Arnold's acumen with the subversiveness that lurks just beneath the surface is playfully reserved, bubbling up only when absolutely necessary.

| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Jun 19, 2021

Lane and Arnold have made Sasha a completely different person. In two-hours-and-40-minutes, they have formed a whole life.

| Original Score: 4/5 | May 5, 2021

It isn't much different than Arnold's previous film Fish Tank- on the verge of womanhood, a girl from a poor family journeying through self-discovery. The hope Arnold portrays in those two films has less to do with its setting but with youth.

A completely gorgeous and remarkable film... American Honey manages to depict the desperation of being a poor young person in a forgotten corner of America without condescending to or worshipping its destitute characters.

| Feb 11, 2021

The handheld camerawork and the lingering on minuscule details (like arms, legs, tattoos, and even mud puddles) only weaken the sequences of emotional, human interactions.

| Original Score: 4/10 | Dec 4, 2020

Whatever one's qualms concerning the subject matter, American Honey is generously conceived and gorgeously photographed, and provides Sasha Lane a notable platform.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 15, 2020

It doesn't try to cover its muddy tracks because to do so would be inauthentic, and the issues at its core are anything but.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Jul 24, 2020

If the bland story had been cut in half, the resulting product would've been much more digestible. [Full review in Spanish]

American Honey is special. It doesn't just show you these people; it makes you one with them. And by the end, you realize you've spent a whole lot of time with the future of America, and that's both thrilling and terrifying.

American Honey is never boring, but it's hard to justify a 163-minute length. The film is challenging, but compulsively watchable.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jan 28, 2020

By the time the film enters its second hour, the goodwill generated by the fresh faced enthusiasm of the actors and flashes of fleeting, accidental beauty is ground down by the editing's oppressive tedium.

| Jan 15, 2020

Overall, American Honey is sensual, grounded and honest depiction of a carefree life, reminding audiences it's okay to dream - just don't expect it to last.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Nov 14, 2019

Arnold ensures that each of these sequences crackles with tension, though one of the film's strengths is that the scenes never play out quite the way you expect.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Apr 22, 2019

Newcomer Sasha Lane absolutely owns this film - her fiery chemistry with the never-better LaBeouf is the spark that makes it ignite. This could be Arnold's magnum opus.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Apr 3, 2019

The kind of film that is objectively good from an aesthetic standpoint but the themes are barely thought out and the results are a racist and callous story that essentially romanticizes abuse and racial microaggressions...

| Feb 5, 2019

A sweeping epic that captures a side of America that rarely, if ever, has been captured on film.

| Original Score: A | Jan 15, 2019

The film clocks in at a staggering 163 minutes, and though you feel its length, you never feel bored.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Dec 28, 2018

Get lost and be lost. The millennial generation. Nothing to do, nothing to be. Dreams does not come true, or may be yes. But only may be. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 5/5 | Dec 14, 2018
