“An Ordinary Man” (*1/2 out of four) was an unusually dull and strange melodrama about a war criminal (Ben Kingsley) in hiding who forms a relationship with his maid (Hera Hilmar) as he tries to make the most of the years of his life he has remaining. Kingsley is strong as usual but his character is wearying and him and Hilmar have little chemistry together. By the end, it all seems pointless despite striking cinematography from Magdalena Gorka and a nice music score by Christophe Beck.
