Vince Vaughn stars in this fertile comedy as a go-nowhere underachiever approaching middle-age who suddenly finds out that he’s the biological father of 533 children, an error from the sperm clinic he donated to 20 years ago. With over a quarter of his kin filing a lawsuit to reveal his identity, he must decide whether or not to come forward. From writer and director Ken Scott, remaking his 2011 French-Canadian comedy Starbuck.

"If movies were buskers, Delivery Man would be a big dorky guy with a ‘Free Hugs’ sign. It’s easy to ignore, doesn’t demonstrate any outstanding talent and you wouldn’t think to pay a lot of money for its services, but if you put yourself in its embrace, it’s hard not to walk away feeling chipper."

Variety
Variety"If this remake of 2011’s French-Canadian hit "Starbuck" feels as if it’s just going through the motions, Vaughn himself radiates sincerity and good intention. The actor doesn’t get it right this time, but he’s earned himself another chance."
