How Have Jennifer Lopez’s Previous Netflix Movies Performed?
Despite receiving mixed reviews from critics, Lopez’s past Netflix films have drawn impressive viewership numbers. Her 2023 action thriller, The Mother, was not well-received critically, earning only a 43% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. However, the film proved to be a major success with audiences, becoming the sixth-most-watched Netflix movie of all time, amassing over 234 million viewing hours.
Another Lopez project for Netflix, Atlas, also had a similar trajectory. Though the sci-fi thriller received only 19% on Rotten Tomatoes, it still managed to attract 73 million global views. With Office Romance, Lopez continues her collaboration with Netflix, hoping to replicate this success in the romantic comedy genre, where she has long been a fan favorite, with hits like The Wedding Planner and Maid in Manhattan.
