Name : David Sims / Alias : The Atlantic
Thanks to Lane's natural magnetism and the director Andrea Arnold's remarkable empathy for her subjects, it's required viewing.

Name : Leah Greenblatt / Alias : Entertainment Weekly
For the most part it succeeds, gorgeously - though it will probably make anyone over 30 feel either mildly outraged or wildly irrelevant.

Name : Jesse Hassenger / Alias : AV Club
Plenty of recent films can claim Terrence Malick as an influence, but Arnold is one of the few filmmakers who takes that intuitive style in a fresh direction-who builds on it, rather than repeating its contemplative whispers.

Name : Mike D'Angelo / Alias : AV Club
It works best as a rowdy ensemble piece-sort of a co-ed, mobile, present-day version of Richard Linklater's Everybody Wants Some, examining the frayed bonds created among newly formed adults with few responsibilities.

Name : A.O. Scott / Alias : New York Times
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.

Name : Joe Morgenstern / Alias : Wall Street Journal
Just when you think you know what's going to happen, the film serves up one more surprise.

Name : Guy Lodge / Alias : Variety
It's constantly, engrossingly active, spinning and sparking and exploding in cycles like a Fourth of July catherine wheel.

Name : Allen Salkin / Alias : New York Daily News
This shimmering, raw, hip-hop hymnal of a film by Andrea Arnold is an American tale that is both gorgeously original and rooted in some of the greatest stories this country has ever produced.

Name : Sara Stewart / Alias : New York Post
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.

Name : Dave Calhoun / Alias : Time Out
A bold film, full of energy and spunk, but a patchy, half-formed, rambling one too.

Name : Danny King / Alias : Village Voice
Most of American Honey sees Arnold either mounting vague attempts at naturalistic detail or satisfying more facile, disingenuous instincts.

Name : Stephanie Zacharek / Alias : TIME Magazine
Over and over, American Honey calls attention to how observant it is, rather than just being observant.

Name : Justin Chang / Alias : Los Angeles Times
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.

Name : David Edelstein / Alias : New York Magazine/Vulture
Lane is everything Arnold must have hoped she'd be. The longing is in her eyes, but her mouth, with its thick upper lip, suggests skepticism and a healthy self-possession.

Name : David Rooney / Alias : Hollywood Reporter
A road movie without a map that nonetheless arrives at a worthwhile destination.
