What to Know

Critics Consensus

Polished as a business presentation and just as impersonal, Office Romance is headed by a likable pairing but proves too content to follow the rules of standard rom-coms to nab a promotion into the C-suite.

Audience Says

A lightweight affair with a bit too much raunch, J-Lo & Goldstein can do no wrong -- except getting tangled up in this Office Romance.

Office Romance coasts off Lopez’s charm to be weird elsewhere. Go to Full Review
Angelica Jade Bastién New York Magazine/Vulture Jun 8
Despite their momentary delight, films like Office Romance tell us that Hollywood is stuck creating outdated movies for a version of our romantically yearning culture that doesn’t exist anymore. Go to Full Review

3/5
The character work is sharp and the supporting cast a hoot. But the film’s diversions into “raunchy” comedy are awkward. Go to Full Review

Think “Notting Hill” by way of “American Pie.” It doesn’t fly, but there are a few chuckles along the taxiway of failed funnies. Go to Full Review

2/5
“Office Romance” is the latest dime-a-dozen romantic comedy to come down the streaming pipeline. It’s also among the more inconsistent ones as director Ol Parker struggles to make something worthwhile out of its many romcom clichés and misguided swings. Go to Full Review

This plays like Goldstien scribbled a bunch of “they’ll never leave this in” notes in the margins and they left them all in. If you are in the mood for it, you will laugh out loud with eyes wide open. Go to Full Review

Alyssa K @Alyssa784 3h This was cute... I had expected more chemistry between the leads... but that didn’t come across in the movie for me. See more Carlos T @RT67858720 1d 🎬 NOTA FINAL: 3,0/10 **Paixão de Escritório** é uma comédia romântica que tinha todos os ingredientes para funcionar, mas falha justamente naquilo que deveria ser sua maior força: o romance e o humor. Jennifer Lopez continua carismática, mas parece presa a um roteiro sem inspiração e a uma história que não consegue criar emoção ou envolvimento. Para uma atriz que já entregou comédias românticas muito mais divertidas e memoráveis, este filme representa um passo para trás. **Um filme fraco, previsível e facilmente esquecível — e talvez um sinal de que JLO precise buscar novos desafios para reencontrar seu melhor momento no cinema.** See more Steve D @RT35616104 4d A complete and total mess. See more Jane D @jdtraviano 4d I created a RT account just to leave this review, it was that bad. There's a horrific scene with a pregnant woman giving birth. Normally this would be handled delicately, even in a comedy. But this was foul. Without any warning, they panned down between her legs to show the actual birth happening, with the woman's open CGI 'area' and a CGI baby coming out of it. Then after we'd both looked away, they showed it again, with the CGI 'area' stretched out fully and the CGI baby forcing its way out. Sure, birth is a miracle but showing one in the middle of a family-friendly Netflix film is completely barbaric. It was literally CGI nightmare fuel. And they know this, because they deliberately gave the audience no warning, they panned down in less than half a second to show it on purpose, to shock and disgust the audience. The rest of the film is a sub-par comedy, with some moderately entertaining laugh moments. The soundtrack is great though. It carries the film. See more Renee W @ReneeNchill 6d Fantastic RomCom. It was nice to break the mold of early 2000’s tradition. I love the nostalgia from the “How to Lose A Guy…” and “13 Going on 30” but it’s nice to see something new. See more Katie D @novagirl11kd 6d I'll always watch something with a Ted Lasso alum in it and Brett Goldstein delivers what you'd expect, but Betty Gilpin steals the movie. She's genuinely funny even though I couldn't place her from anything else I'd seen. She's one of those actors who somehow looks like several other people at once. It's a little uncomfortable at first given the office power dynamic and environment, but then it settles into a comfortable romantic comedy rhythm once it gets going. The one scene that really threw me was the birth scene, completely over the top and tonally out of step with the rest of the movie. Overall a solid, likable watch, and a good one for an easy night in. See more Read all reviews
