Honey Don’t tell the story of a small-town private investigator named Honey O’Donahue who investigates a series of strange deaths connected to a mysterious church. However, the plot takes a more intricate turn. Margaret Qualley, Aubrey Plaza, Chris Evans, and Charlie Day star in this dark comedy rollercoaster ride, where they navigate a mind-bending mystery of who committed the murders and what forces are at play.
Honey O’Donahue, a smooth, confident, witty, and unapologetically detective character, finds herself unexpectedly drawn to MG Falcone, a scrappy and emotionally guarded police officer played by Aubrey Plaza. Amidst her attempts to solve a crime, Honey becomes entangled in a passionate and complex romance with Falcone. Which ultimately leads to an unexpected truth. Chris Evans is hilarious as Reverend Drew Devlin, a charismatic yet shady cult leader. His character is central to the film’s darker and more twisted elements.
Now, although the story will take you down, across, over, and through various paths once you reach its conclusion, it will surprise you. Plus, I still would like to know who “The French” is.
