The circumstances may be contrived, but the characters feel refreshingly genuine. Read full review

Starbuck was a funny and warm-hearted trifle. So is Delivery Man. Read full review

As a modest bit of feel-good entertainment, Vaughn and Delivery Man mostly deliver the goods. Read full review

Delivery Man means well, but it’s innocuous to the point of non-existence. In trying to please everyone, the film runs the risk of pleasing no one. Read full review

Delivery Man may be a change of pace for Vaughn, but it’s the exact opposite for its creator, the Québécois filmmaker Ken Scott. Belonging to the Funny Games school of carbon-copy remakes, the film is an identical Hollywood retread of Scott’s 2011 festival favorite Starbuck. Every scene, every joke, nearly every shot of the movie is straight out of the original. Read full review

Calling Delivery Man a "comedy" is a bit of a stretch, because it's rarely funny. Dumb, yes, but not in a way that's worthy of more than a half-hearted chuckle. Read full review

The breadth of Vince Vaughn's gregarious persona has never been given free reign by any director and this certainly isn't the game-changer. Read full review

I liked the story and the heart felt feeling that it gave me watching it! Really entertaining and an enjoyable flick, that I would recommend highly to anyone seeking a nice evening by putting in a movie. Nice cast ensemble and a very nice job of acting by all. Made me realize in our own way no matter how small the contribution is, we can make a difference in other's lives.… Expand

The Good: Much better (and deeper) than expected. While Vince Vaughn's act has grated on me quite a bit over the years, his performance in this film was subdued. This leads to an unexpectedly likeable character who seems to legitimately want to turn his life around. Chris Pratt delivers most of the film's one-liners and was a comedic bright spot.

The Bad: While it ended up being a better film than expected, it wasn't really very funny. Aside from Pratt's occasional aforementioned one-liners, there wasn't much to laugh about. Colbie Smulders wasn't all that great and her one-dimensional character could have been played by just about anyone.… Expand

While the story is a goofy farce of the original Canadian film, "Delivery Man" is still brings laughs, tenderness and even heart. This movie is all goofiness with all the heart in typical heartwarming comedies. Overall, you'll find wonder in a movie like this. I give it a B.

Vince Vaughn plays his typical character, short on accomplishments but big on charm. Twenty years earlier, he was an enthusiastic donor at a fertility clinic and now he finds out he's the father of 533 children. From all signs this looks like a riotous comedy, but there aren't many laughs.Vince Vaughn plays his typical character, short on accomplishments but big on charm. Twenty years earlier, he was an enthusiastic donor at a fertility clinic and now he finds out he's the father of 533 children. From all signs this looks like a riotous comedy, but there aren't many laughs. You can expect a heartwarming conclusion, but it's pretty chilly instead. Without the heavy handed music to tell us when it's funny and when it's sweet, you might have miss it. Vaughn carries the film and it moves at a steady pace. It just never becomes special. The weird thing: none of these offspring look vaguely like him.… Expand

There is a time in the movie where someone says this is weird and that couldn't describe this movie any better. Delivery Man doesn't have anything funny and a story that is utter trash. I couldn't wait for this so called comedy to end.
