"A Family Affair" is a scripted Netflix rom-com directed by Richard LaGravenese, starring Zac Efron, Nicole Kidman, and Joey King. The film follows the unconventional love triangle between Efron's character, a heartbreaker actor, Kidman's character, a famous novelist, and King's character, Kidman's daughter. While the plot attempts to bridge generational divides, it ultimately falls flat, with King's performance feeling disconnected from the rest of the film. Efron shines as the action hero star with a sensitive side, reminiscent of his own career, while Kidman impresses with her knowledge and charm. Despite its shortcomings, "A Family Affair" taps into the recent trend of age gap romances and offers a nostalgic return to the rom-com genre. While not a contender for awards, the film is a welcome reminder of Efron's former heartthrob status and marks a delightful comeback for the actor.
