A bold film, full of energy and spunk, but a patchy, half-formed, rambling one too. Full Review
It's constantly, engrossingly active, spinning and sparking and exploding in cycles like a Fourth of July catherine wheel. Full Review
A road movie without a map that nonetheless arrives at a worthwhile destination. Full Review
It has style and its image and feel stayed with me. Full Review
The camera races and races to keep this fast and furious young woman locked in its sights, turning her into an object of both pursuit and contemplation. Full Review
It probes the murk and terror beneath the surface of contemporary life, and illuminates the vital role of ignorance, poor judgment and wishful thinking in our national character. Full Review
At 162 minutes, "American Honey" may test some viewers' patience, but for this one, it paid off with an unflinching portrait of middle America, a love letter to the open road and a dynamic newcomer in Sasha Lane. Full Review
