Reviews


75
The Seattle Times - Tom Keogh
The film distinguishes itself by what it lacks: simple, unrealistic answers to Perry’s regrets and the hole in his soul. His path to authenticity might not lead back to glory days, but contentment is closer than he thinks.
70
The Hollywood Reporter - Frank Scheck
Ordinary World becomes raggedly enjoyable thanks to the unexpected charms of its leading man.
70
We Got This Covered - Robert Yaniz Jr.
Although Ordinary World hits a number of familiar story beats, a real heart appears to be beating behind the material, allowing Armstrong and his castmates to maximize the emotional impact it has.
60
Village Voice - Michael Nordine
Armstrong, who's mostly played himself in previous forays into acting, has a low-key charm suggesting that, if he desired it, he could get more onscreen gigs in between albums.
50
Los Angeles Times - Katie Walsh
Unfortunately, the cast and a few sweet tunes by Armstrong are the only things going for this delayed coming-of-age dramedy.
