The term "American movie" is often taken to mean big budget action blockbuster, but this is the most American movie you will ever see. It is as big as the entire country, as rambling as its routes and has all of the heart of the heartland. Just like America, there is no beginning, no middle, no end, just life. No good guy, no bad guy, just people being themselves. If you are looking for a traditional film with characters and scripts and plot twists, this isn't for you. If you're looking for an sincere look at the real America, if you want to hear their accents and feel their roads and smell summer on their skin, then this will take you to the middle of the country for the price of a ticket and 2 1/2 hours of your day.

first, sasha lane did great for a debut. but it's boring. if you're looking to watch 4 different scenes repeatedly for 3 hours then this is the perfect movie for you.

This is an interesting look at middle american, but at times goes on for too long.

This was a really interesting watch, even if it basically didn't have a plot. It's not a movie about a story, it's a movie about people, and a reality I'm not at all familiar with, so had fun getting to know - that is if the portrait is a faithful one. The driving force of the movie, though, was the relationship between [spoiler] Star and Jake [/spoiler], because I'm a sucker for these kind of reckless, obsessive, crazy passionate couples and [spoiler] Sasha and Shia [/spoiler] had amazing chemistry. Don't think I'll ever rewatch this, but I definitely don't regret watching it at all, even considering how neverending it seemed. Oh and also, some shots in this are absolutely gorgeous, so so pretty!! Even if I did find the camera too shaky at times (in [spoiler] Star and Jake's second sex scene you become REALLY aware they're being filmed and it kind of ruins the moment, i don't know if the camera movement that extreme was intentional or not, but in that particular scene, i was not a fan [/spoiler]). 7/10

it's very hard to describe American Honey, on paper and by the plot it should just be boring and mundane, and while yes there wasn't much going on throughout the film, very basic. It felt very natural and sincere in the message it was trying to deliver. I am not from the US so I cannot state whether it's true, but American Honey felt like a very true representation of what the US is all about, I felt like I was there with them on this road trip, just life in general going by. Also a definitely nod to the soundtrack which was absolutely BRILLIANT! Just an overall good and honest film, no big budgets or high speed car chases, no good guy vs bad guy needed here, just honest cinematic. Glad I finally got round to watching this.
