The critics are not into Zac Efron & Nicole Kidman’s Netflix film Family Affair. Nicole Kidman and Zac Efron reunite 12 years after The Paperboy to play lovers in a comedy movie that also features Netflix darling Joey King.
Family Affair did not fare better than box office flop The 2013” Paperboy, which grossed $652.4K domestically. Like Paperboy, Family Affair is also splattered with green goo on Rotten Tomatoes.
Zac Efron and Nicole Kidman’s Netflix film tanked, with critics landing dismal reviews on the leading online aggregator Rotten Tomatoes. The film has landed 44%, with Guardian’s Peter Bradshaw writing, “When Chris (Zac Efron) has to magically stop being a hilarious airhead and start being Mr Perfect, things become pretty insufferable.”

The film scored even less, with audiences who gave it a 39% score. Zac Efron, who broke into mainstream fame with Disney’s High School Musical, has been slammed by critics for the past eight years. The 17 Again star has failed to deliver box office success since starring in 2017’s “The Greatest Showman” alongside Hugh Jackman and Zendaya, which grossed over $435 Million worldwide against a production budget of $80 Million.
Efron delivered one hit, 2022’s Iron Claw, after The Greatest Showman. The film received positive reviews and grossed over $45.2 million against a production budget of $15 Million. Let’s take a look at Zac Efron’s ratings of the last five films based on Rotten Tomatoes.
