Leave your thoughts about Honour.
| Film ThreatAmy R. HandlerShan Khan's debut feature film, Honour, is an expose of honor killings in contemporary Britain -- a reality not easily digested. |
| ObserverRex ReedAiysha Hart delivers a mesmerizing performance. |
| CompuserveHarvey S. KartenConfused plot, accents difficult to understand. |
| The New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisMr. Khan displays a strong visual sense that makes pivotal scenes pop. The unlikely ending strains credulity, but what this confident debut lacks in subtlety, it more than makes up in execution. |
| The Hollywood ReporterStephen DaltonAn uneven mix of serious issue movie and sensational thrill ride, Honour is no masterpiece, but it is an accomplished debut. |
| Times (UK)Kate MuirThe subject is important and timely, but gets an over the top, melodramatic, thriller treatment. |
| The GuardianLeslie FelperinIt's as if the film-makers felt they couldn't deliver the didactic lesson unless they wrapped this up in pulpy, thriller trappings. |
| Village VoiceDanny KingKhan’s orchestration of suspense impresses. |
| VarietyGuy LodgeEarnest issue drama and pulpy B-thriller mechanics make awkward but not uncompelling bedfellows in Honour. |
| RogerEbert.comSusan WloszczynaHonour, for good and bad, is nowhere near as gruesome and downbeat as its subject might suggest. |
