Tommy's Honour's reviews
Media reviews
The Hollywood Reporter
This historical account offers an engrossing and accessible celebration of the game?s modern origins, enhanced by striking locations and a standout cast, led by Scottish actors Peter Mullan and Jack Lowden.
The Wrap
Although Tommy?s Honour has clearly been made by a golf obsessive who loves the links, it?s the rare sports biography that keeps its eye on the ball of character and milieu.
Los Angeles Times
It?s surprisingly affecting, but there?s a tendency to telegraph these pivotal emotional moments that in a way lessens their effect. It?s a tribute to the film?s overall craft, and especially its cast, that it?s as much a winner as it is.
Roger Ebert
It is a movie for golf enthusiasts, pure and simple.
The Washington Post
Tommy?s Honour is never boring, but at best it invites a smattering of polite applause, not an upturned barrel of Gatorade.
The A.V. Club
What this one offers in abundance is facts about golf in its early days. How the movie escaped a Father?s Day release in the U.S. is a mystery.
