Extra Ordinary










Co-Directors Mike Ahern and Edna Loughman’s Extra Ordinary is a charming indie feature from Ireland with humor ranging from tongue-in-cheek to over-the-top.

A one-hit wonder singer (Will Forte), with a mansion in a in a back-water Irish town, has made a pact with the Devil to revive his fortune by sacrificing a virgin.

The only defense is Rose Dooley (Maeve Higgins), a driving instructor, who has been hiding her supernatural abilities because she believes she was responsible for her father’s death, when she bumbled an invocation as a child.

This is a broad comedy that works because the actors really go for it.

I give Extra Ordinary a 4 out of 5.
