Check instance status using filter with EC2 API

I want to make sure the instance has passed the two status checks(System/Instance reachability check) using command line.

When I run this

ec2-describe-instance-status
ec2-describe-instance-status XX($InstanceID)

it would show running instances like

INSTANCE    $InstanceID $REGION running 16

But when I tried adding a filter to make sure the instance passed the status check

ec2-describe-instance-status XX($InstanceID) --filter instance-status.reachability=passed
ec2-describe-instance-status XX($InstanceID) --filter "instance-status.reachability=passed"
ec2-describe-instance-status --filter instance-status.reachability=passed

nothing ever returned.

I've double-checked the instances are running fine and actually passed the 2 status checks, but why nothing is returned after applying the filters?

Update: In response to Rico, I tried the -v option

ec2-describe-instance-status -v

returns one item in the instanceStatusSet, with the fields

    <item>
      <instanceId>i-XXX</instanceId>
      <availabilityZone>us-east-1d</availabilityZone>
      <instanceState>
        <code>16</code>
        <name>running</name>
      </instanceState>
    </item>

while

ec2-describe-instance-status --filter instance-status.reachability=passed -v
ec2-describe-instance-status --filter "instance-status.reachability=passed" -v

both return an empty instanceStatusSet...

Use the AWS Command Line Interface unified tool instead.

aws ec2 describe-instance-status --instance-ids i-01234567 --filters Name=instance-status.reachability,Values=passed
