Hugh Jackman’s latest film has earned an instant rotten rating among critics

A bad movie here or there never did much damage to an actor’s career, but The Son, the latest outing from Hugh Jackman, is an especially curious case in the sense that it will probably improve his reputation more than anything. After all, when you receive a Golden Globe nomination for your performance in a movie that fared rather poorly in most all other aspects, that’s ground to demand quite a fair shake of respect.

But, a film is the sum of its parts, and while Hugh Jackman was a dazzlingly shiny part, the rest of The Son seems to be dragging its feet as far as critics are concerned. Indeed, with a 39 percent approval rating from 88 critics just two days ahead of its release, things aren’t off to a great start for the Florian Zeller-directed drama.
