Delivery Man (2013)


I had yet another “urge-watch” at the weekend.

I’ve been wanting to watch this film again for a while so on Saturday night I watched:


Delivery Man (2013)


If you haven’t seen it, it’s a comedy drama starring Vince Vaughan (Wedding Crashers), Chris Pratt (Guardians of the Galaxy) and Cobie Smulders (Avengers Assemble) among others.


The movie is a remake of the 2011 French-Canadian film, “Starbuck”.


This is what it’s about according to IMDb:


“An affable underachiever finds out he's fathered 533 children through anonymous donations to a fertility clinic 20 years ago. Now he must decide whether or not to come forward when 142 of them file a lawsuit to reveal his identity.”


I’ve got to say, I love Vince Vaughan! 🙌

I know he’s not everyone’s cup of tea but I think he’s a really good actor. Not only is he great in the comedic roles that have made him a household name but he’s also shown us he can pull off serious roles with films like Brawl in Cell Block 99 (2017) and Hacksaw Ridge (2016).

I just find him really funny and likeable.


This is one of my favourite films of his. It has a great story and is one of those comedies that for all its laughs, also offers up some really emotional moments making it an extremely heartwarming film.


On top of all that it stars Chris Pratt who is hilarious as Vince Vaughan’s character’s friend and lawyer, Brett.

He was carrying a bit of weight around this time and tended to get cast in a lot of supporting roles. He got jacked for Guardians of the Galaxy though and everything changed. 💪

As good as Vince Vaughan is in this film, it’s Chris Pratt who stands out and steals every scene he’s in.


If you want a comedy with layers that will hit you in the feels as much as it’ll tickle your funny bone, you should check this one out.


Seen it? Let me know below.👇
