If you run systemd, halt, poweroff, reboot and shutdown are all links to systemctl. No -F option. If you run sysvinit, you should have package sysvinit-core installed, wherein halt (poweroff, reboot) and shutdown are binaries. Their manpages indicate support for -F. I can't check whether it then actually works because this laptop is running systemd; though I may be reverting for reasons that I might outline in a different thread, perhaps "No feedback from systemd ..."
