Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter Ordinary World becomes raggedly enjoyable thanks to the unexpected charms of its leading man Oct 14, 2016 Full Review Neil Genzlinger New York Times The film turns into a predictable midlife-crisis yarn. Oct 13, 2016 Full Review Tom Keogh 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 Oct 13, 2016 Full Review Sean Mulvihill FanboyNation.com 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 Nov 1, 2018 Full Review Andrew Parker The Gate It's not an unlikable film, but it ain't much. Aug 28, 2018 Full Review Alistair Ryder Film Inquiry Ordinary World is charming in spite of its sheer predictability. Feb 18, 2017 Full Review Read all reviews

Paul B Ugh. What a POS. That's what you'll think many, many, many times about the main character in this movie. Selfish, oblivious POS. The character was so absolutely unappealing and STUPID, it ruined what I'm sure they were trying to do with this movie. People don't have to be selfish, morons to wake up to what actual happiness is. I was infuriated throughout. If you want to watch an unredeemable character fumble through a haze of selfishness, you'll love this clunker. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 06/30/23 Full Review Audience Member I had a more redeeming experience on the toilet this morning Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/23/22 Full Review Audience Member 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. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Wish he would have gone to play with Joan Jet but a great performance all round Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Apart from having Billie as the lead actor, this is a pretty ordinary film with boring script. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member 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 01/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews
