Overview
- The film began streaming on Netflix Friday, June 5, and its launch has driven a new wave of reviews and publicity.
- Stars Jennifer Lopez and Brett Goldstein publicly denied dating during promotion after visible on‑screen rapport and tabloid speculation.
- Critics repeatedly praised Lopez’s lead turn and Betty Gilpin’s scene‑stealing supporting role while saying the script leans on familiar rom‑com beats.
- Several reviewers faulted weak or uneven chemistry between the leads and pointed to explicit R‑rated sexual humor and a graphic office birth scene as polarizing elements.
- Office Romance was written by Goldstein and Joe Kelly with Lopez in mind and is part of a recent trend of star‑led, nostalgia‑tinged rom‑coms going straight to streaming, a move that keeps the genre alive on platforms but also concentrates publicity around actors’ off‑screen lives.
