Like your average three-chord rock song, Ordinary World is easy enough to get into - even if it doesn't get stuck in your head.

Ordinary World
Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong stars as an aging punk rocker coping with life after rock in this comedy-drama with Fred Armisen, Selma Blair and Judy Greer.
Former punk rocker Perry is ten years into his band's "indefinite hiatus" and is struggling with adjustment to the real world (which includes working in his family's hardware store). When Perry's hotshot attorney wife (Blair) and precocious young daughter forget his 40th birthday, his brother (Chris Messina) takes pity and gives him the money to throw a huge rockstar blowout in a fancy New York hotel. At the party, Perry's punk past clashes with his middle-aged reality as he encounters crazy former bandmates and an old-flame-turned-manager (Judy Greer), who offers him a chance to revive his stalled career.
