A Family Affair Review
Nicole Kidman finds unexpected love in lightweight, fun ‘A Family Affair’. Zac Efron and Joey King also star in this new comedy, about a young woman who is horrified mother starts dating her entitled, immature movie star boss.Launching on Netflix on June 28th, ‘A Family Affair’ continues the trend –– aside from most famous recent example 'Anyone But You' –– of the rom-com movie finding a more a natural home on streaming than in theaters.
And while this latest instance of the genre doesn’t come across as particularly outstanding, it does at least have enough laughs to sustain it, while also handling a slightly refreshing premise without diving too far into schmalzy cheese.
