An Ordinary Man Ratings & Reviews
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Kingsley gives a hammy performance.
RogerEbert.com
Odie Henderson
Nothing in An Ordinary Man rings true; not the location, nor the performances nor the story.
Blu-ray.com
Brian Orndorf
There's sophistication in the study of guilt and emotional isolation, but the feature is alarmingly simple and repetitive, with Silberling laboring to fill his effort with anything that could inflate the material into something substantial.
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
More a strident star vehicle than a serious study of the effect of genocidal cruelty on its perpetrators and their victims.
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
The General's motives are simplified to such a degree that the movie comes close to excusing him.
Slant Magazine
Keith Watson
Yes, deep down, even brutal war criminals like the one played by Ben Kingsley are people too.
Variety
Peter Debruge
Kingsley's domineering lead performance is worth the price of admission alone, although "An Ordinary Man" is actually a two-hander...
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
Kingsley delivers such a riveting performance that it becomes easy to overlook the film's less compelling aspects.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
Kingsley is certainly committed to the arc of tough guy stripped bare, but his gifts aren't served well by an artificially studious attempt at applying Understanding 101 logic to a perpetrator of atrocities.
New York Times
Ken Jaworowski
A head-scratcher that ends with a shoulder-shrug, "An Ordinary Man" feels like a scene-study exercise in which two actors invest full measures in a script that's only half finished.
Third Coast Review
Steven Prokopy
It's a curious film that I'm not certain works entirely, but the two leads are so interesting in their performance choices that I couldn't help but care where this unholy alliance was heading.
Voices & Visions
Jim Laczkowski
A flawed film, saved by two great performances and a short running time. Kingsley manages to do a lot with very little so if you're a fan, no need to pass this by entirely.
Arkansas Democrat-Gazette
Karen Martin
This character-focused, thoughtful drama moves at a stately pace.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
Ben Kingsley again demonstrates his versatility, but even his best effort can't bring much sympathy to this redemption story.
Easy Reader (California)
Neely Swanson
I suppose there is something to be said about the juxtaposition of such incredible physical beauty and the ugliness of the actions in support of it. But in the end, there's still not much to be said, period.
Forbes
Luke Y. Thompson
If this were a legit biopic of just about anybody, it'd be a hugely irresponsible portrayal. But in fiction, eh, whaddaya gonna do.
Film Journal International
Simi Horwitz
It has its moments, but in the end the threads don't mesh.
Film Inquiry
Alex Arabian
One eventually forgets Kingsley's character's backstory, and becomes transfixed on the odd, juxtaposition of genres that unfolds like molasses to an exciting, sudden ending that will leave viewers thinking about An Ordinary Man long after viewing.
The Film Stage
Jared Mobarak
Kingsley and Hilmar ensure we believe this by delivering three-dimensional performances we're used to seeing on the heroic side.
Punch Drunk Critics
Travis Hopson
But this is Kingsley's show, he launches from rant to rant like a cannon's fusillade, only allowing himself one or two scant moments of subtlety.
