Critic Harry Windsor reviewed Erik Matti’s “Honor Thy Father” in the United States trade publication The Hollywood Reporter. The Filipino movie—which stars John Lloyd Cruz, Meryll Soriano and Tirso Cruz III—is part of the 40th Toronto International Film Festival, ongoing in Canada until Sept. 20. Windsor describes Matti’s film as a “muscularly indignant thriller…a flinty portrait of inequality and vigilante justice in modern Philippines.” Bayani San Diego Jr.
