Anyone But You fans are going to love Zac Efron’s new movie

Zac Efron is back in this charming rom-com

If you're like me then you'll often steer clear of overly serious movies and lean towards a rom-com.

They're easy to watch, and a little predictable at times, but they never fail to cheer you up.

Netflix has produced some of my favourite modern rom-coms and comedies in recent years, and the newest Zac Efron film has to be one of the best by far.

A Family Affair stars Zac Efron and Nicole Kidman.

Joey King and Liza Koshy also star in the Netflix film.

It's a witty romance that follows a famous actor (Zac Efron) as he falls in love with his assistant's widowed mother (Nicole Kidman).

The synopsis reads:

'Zara, a young woman who works as the personal assistant to self-absorbed Hollywood star Chris Cole, discovers that her boss is having a secret romantic relationship with her widowed mother.'

I watched the movie last weekend with my sister and we were impressed from the opening scene to the very end.

It's hilarious, romantic, and featured surprisingly tender at moments.

Efron and Kidman are incredible together and Joey King plays the struggling 20-something professional too perfectly. Each character manages to steal the scene in their own unique way, but Efron comes out on top in one of his best roles since 17 Again.

It's not an Oscar-worthy drama, but sometimes all you need is a silly two-hour rom-com. Movies don't always need to be serious, upsetting or dramatic.

Sometimes what you really need is a film where Zac Efron sings along to Cher in the opening scenes.

A Family Affair is on Netflix now.
