I love how Eric Etebari protrayed his Charactor Junior Lopez. Eric Etebari made the charactor alive and believable as a thug. I enjoyed watching Eric and will be looking for him to be cast in more major roles. He is an up and coming actor worth watching. He has an amazing talent to bring the role he plays alive and believable. His body language and voice add that special touch to the charactor he plays.

This is really worth buying if you like action and brilliant camera work. It's beautifully filmed and Eric Etebari and Dominique Vandenberg give fine performances.The sound track creates just the right mood. I really recommend it.

This film had a powerful impact on me, the inner conflicts of the main character, Andre, were tangible, and reflected in the stark camera work and composition. I recommend this film highly, there is plenty of action too, with great music.

I saw this film at the First Glance Festival In Los Angeles, I really went to see it because of Eric Etebari, who I liked from the TV show "WitchBlade". But I sat enthralled by this picture of life in the LA nightclub and underworld, it's a dark and brooding piece that takes it's time unwinding. But, there's a subtle intensity that stays with you after the movie's over. Sure it was probably low budget, but the energy in the performances and the ingenuity in the story telling more than make up for that. I noticed the lead actor, Dominiquie Vandenberg is in "Gangs of New York". Perhaps this is the first work of a real "new action hero". He reminded me of Charles Bronson in his hey-day. I recommend this film, very good -- (I have ordered it!).

The Honorable is a great reason to have faith in low budget film making. It's a classic example of when a director, Jesse Johnson in this case, has a clear vision and an actor at his disposal who can bring that to life, as Dominiquie Vandenberg does here. The film evokes the barren, gutsy tone of some of Martin Scorsese's early work (Mean Streets, Taxi Driver). And Vandenberg's riveting portayal as the doorman is a thing to behold. Watching him stirs up haunting memories of intense silent types from the past like Clint Eastwood, Charles Bronson and Steve McQueen. And when he let's his fist and feet fly...LOOK OUT!

I really enjoyed this movie, it is obviously a low budget production, but I was really impressed by the passion and energy behind the film making, I highly recommend it! Also I suspect that Mister vandenberg, the lead actor is headed to higher and finer things. Keep a eye out for him. He posseses a raw energy i haven't experienced in a while!

The Honorable is a fine example of independant film making. It is a dark film about the sleezy side of nightclubs and gangster wantabe's. It is filled with action, seduction, and emotion. I enjoyed Eric Etebari's portrayal of Jr. Lopez. Eric is a fine actor and brought this character to life. This fine actor should be used in more mainstream as well as many more independant films.
