Certain of the characters situated around the central pair are the most effectively drawn, come into the socially sharpest focus: the horrible policeman, the opportunist media types and the various do-gooders.

This desperation that grips the couple... is palpable to the audience.

"Ordinary People," is not a neo-realist film about working class life, set in a culture of poverty, making a case for redistribution of wealth. The grim reality portrayed is horrific, the moral undertones make it mean.

Rated: 2.5/5

Good exposition of the life of street dwellers but the acting could be better

Vicious and palpably realistic, Eduardo Roy Jr.'s "Pamilya Ordinaryo" is going to be a hard watch if you live and breathe in the same streets of Manila where the movie's characters thrive. Kudos to the main actors (Ronwaldo Martin and Hasmine Killip) who are so into their roles you'd believe they really are street dwellers. A hard watch but a must watch.

Sometimes, it's hard to see the realistic side of things with your own eyes. This movie showed the ugly, dark, and hideous truth the poor people in the Philippines experience, and though i kinda knew this truth, the movie managed to make me feel it, and to be honest, i felt horrible. The movie is great, no doubt, but i find it hard to watch because it is too realistic. The development of the main female character is also notable.
