Andrea Arnold's "American Honey" was a Sundance Film Festival darling this past year, which very often translates in film parlance to "overrated." And that is the case as well for "Honey," an overlong film that says enough to fill a 90-minute film but drones on for almost twice that long, incessantly repeating the plight of disaffected millennials with nowhere to go and nothing worthwhile to do. Dragging us on that journey for weeks or months onscreen feels almost that long experiencing it as a film.
