Ordinary World becomes raggedly enjoyable thanks to the unexpected charms of its leading man

The film turns into a predictable midlife-crisis yarn.

Seattle Times

The film distinguishes itself by what it lacks: simple, unrealistic answers to Perry's regrets and the hole in his soul.

Rated: 3/4

Ordinary World is unable to tap into the universal themes of being uneasy growing up and accepting responsibility because its main character is just so aloof in everything that he does.

Rated: 2.5/5

It's not an unlikable film, but it ain't much.

Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong in his first leading role is fun to watch and the story is enjoyable, but it could use more work on the story and characters.

Apart from having Billie as the lead actor, this is a pretty ordinary film with boring script.

Decente, y la banda sonora es magnífica. El film es precioso de ver, la sinopsis no es nada del otro mundo, pero es algo típico de las películas dramáticas. Recalco el buen aura que desprende, eso sí.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

It's an oddly nice movie, which is not what i would've expected from the Green Day frontman. Predictable story, but with good music and surprisingly charming lead actor. I never would've pictured Billie in a typical "dad-role", but the American Idiot punk-rocker pulled it off well. It's also hard to believe he is nearing his 50s (even though he doesn't look that age), guess not even the most rebellious punks can stay young for long.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars
