Nicole Kidman’s New Netflix Movie Lands Low Rotten Tomatoes Rating

Date:

Nicole Kidman’s new Netflix movie A Family Affair isn’t making waves as expected. Despite the star power of Nicole Kidman, Zac Efron, and Joey King, critics are not impressed.

A Family Affair’s Plot: An Unfulfilled Promise

A Family Affair follows Zara (King), who works as an assistant to movie star Chris (Efron). Things get messy when Chris starts a romance with Zara’s mother (Kidman), leaving Zara in shock and dismay.

Rotten Tomatoes Scores: Not So Great

As of now, A Family Affair holds a 47% rating on Rotten Tomatoes from 49 critic reviews. Fans aren’t too thrilled either, giving it a 41% audience score from over 50 ratings.

What Critics Are Saying

Digital Spy notes, “A Family Affair is not as fun as the premise initially promises, and no amount of star power can fix that.” It feels like fans will be left “wanting.”

Highlights from Other Reviews

Screen Rant: “Despite flaws, A Family Affair holds together on the strength of its comedy, even if it suffers a bit from targeting a passive streaming audience.”

TheWrap: “The only joke in A Family Affair that lands is the very last one, and even that only gets a bit of a chuckle. It’s almost worth watching for Zac Efron and Nicole Kidman’s magnetism alone. If by ‘almost’ you mean ‘not really.'”

Collider: “The prospect of new Netflix rom-coms beaming with all-star casts always leaves us feeling a little excited, but the attractiveness alone isn’t enough to sustain the passion in our streaming relationship.”

IndieWire: “With A Family Affair, Efron picks up where 17 Again left off, and it’s a delight to see this former teen heartthrob back in a similar mode. A Family Affair truly is Efron’s film, for better and worse at times. And the feature does slot right in with the recent trend of age gap romances.”

Hollywood Reporter:A Family Affair’s Hollywood material and its drama feel at times like they’ve come from two completely different films. But the lines are delivered with such heartfelt tenderness that for a moment, you might be moved in spite of yourself.”

The Final Verdict

A Family Affair might draw viewers in with its stellar cast, but it seems the execution leaves much to be desired. Whether you’re a fan of Nicole Kidman, Zac Efron, or Joey King, manage your expectations before diving in.

 

A Family Affair is now available on Netflix.
