Director Hur Jin-ho's movie <Ordinary Family> has been named one of Variety's 'Best Movies of 2025'.
Variety selected the most outstanding films from around the world that were screened in North America in the first half of this year, and <Ordinary Family> is the only Korean film included in this list.
The movie is based on the bestseller <The Dinner> by Dutch author Herman Koch, which is a thriller depicting the psychological conflict and breakdown experienced by two upper-class couples as they confront their children's criminal actions. It features actors such as Seol Kyung-gu, Jang Dong-gun, Kim Hee-ae, and Suhyun.
Variety described <Ordinary Family> as a "tense and morally painful drama" and stated that it will "captivate audiences from the very first scene."
In addition to <Ordinary Family>, the 'Best Movies of 2025' list includes <Mission Impossible: Final Reckoning>, <28 Years Later>, <Sinus: The Sinners>, <Bring Her Back>, and <Black Back> among others.
