Netflix's 'Office Romance' starring Jennifer Lopez tops charts in 74 countries
The Netflix romantic‑comedy "Office Romance" premiered on 5 June and quickly rose to the No. 1 spot in the platform’s Top 10 in 74 countries, including Poland and the United States. The film stars Jennifer Lopez and Brett Goldstein and is directed by Ol Parker, with a screenplay by Goldstein and Joe Kelly. Critical response is mixed: Rotten Tomatoes records a 51 % positive rating from both critics and audiences, with reviewers calling the plot predictable and the humor uneven, while many viewers praise the chemistry between Lopez and Goldstein and the adult‑oriented jokes. Despite the lukewarm reviews, the movie has become a global streaming hit, topping Netflix’s popularity charts. Some commentary also points readers to the 2018 rom‑com "Set It Up" as a fresher alternative, but the primary focus remains on the success of "Office Romance".
The film’s R rating in the United States and its broad multilingual promotion underline its international reach, making it one of Netflix’s most‑watched new releases of the month.
