Review
A really good central performance by the lead actor. The story itself well it does contain a lot of clichés and stuff you'll be expecting when watching a movie like this. Plot holes can be found as easy as holes in swiss cheese. But maybe we started off the wrong foot here. Be aware that the only really ⊭ult" scene (if you want to call it that) is right at the beginning. Let's call that scene the "shot that made everything happen" (it's more than one shot of course).
There was actually a man in the news last year who did father quite a lot of children. This news came out in America in 2012 and was received like a big shock. Of course the man who did donate his sperm is not entirely to blame here. Pretty sure he needed the money and if he could get it by doing nothing that he wouldn't do anyways ...
So here we have a case of a comedy that has a lot of heart (and meat but not story wise) but lacks a bit on the big drama. And some other minor failings. Overall a more than decent effort that probably will be remade in America sometime soon
