A Vince Vaughn remake of this French/Canadian comedy is already in the works - but just because it’s about an amiable slacker whose past life as a serial sperm donor catches up with him, doesn’t mean it’s a gross-out affair.
Instead, it’s a sweet if schmaltzy crowd-pleaser as ‘Starbuck’ (Patrick Huard) secretly embroils himself in the affairs of his 533 biological children.

Huard’s charm offsets the plots contrivances, while Ken Scott’s finely balanced direction humanises the high concept.
