Movie Reviews

Hollywood Reporter - 10/10 by John DeForeThe result is a film whose exploration of responsibility and addiction will interest viewers who've never heard of Smith.
Shadow and Act - 9/10 by Aramide Tinubu[IMFH] is a beautifully haunting film about the cycles that we find ourselves in. Its both hilarious and heartbreaking moments really shine light on the affects of absentee parents, drug and alcohol abuse, as well as homelessness in the Black community.
Cinemalogue.com - 8/10 by Todd JorgensonIt's neither as hopeful nor heartbreaking as it might first appear.
Boston Globe - 8/10 by Peter KeoughThough it brings limited insight to the problem of absent fathers in the black community, "In My Father's House" tells a story of loneliness, abandonment, anger, and joy that all can relate to.
Chicago Sun-Times - 8/10 by Miriam Di Nunzio[In My Father's House] could not have come at a better time.
Village Voice - 7/10 by Diana ClarkeIn My Father's House doesn't spend much time on politics, examining why rates of fatherlessness are so high among black American families, but it doesn't need to.
Washington Post - 6/10 by Mark Jenkins"In My Father's House" offers lots of interesting raw material, but it could use a disinterested observer's remix.
RedEye - 6/10 by Matt PaisHas vulnerability and a few laughs. But a story about reconnecting shouldn't seem so uninterested in filling in the gaps.
User Review - 10/10 by Maurika CThis was amazing and eye opening! Much love to All going through this you are not alone and it is never to late!!
