From writer-director Thom Harp, THE DONOR PARTY follows recently single Jaclyn (Malin Åkerman), who desperately wants to become a mom -- by any means necessary. After a messy divorce and countless wasted online dating attempts, she realizes she doesn't need a husband to make her dream come true. Enlisting her best friends (Erinn Hayes and Bria Henderson), Jaclyn devises a plan to pull off the ultimate sperm heist on unsuspecting donors Tim (Jerry O’Connell), MJ (Dan Ahdoot), Mateo (Jeff Torres) and Armin (Ryan Hansen), all while celebrating an intimate birthday party for her oblivious friend, Geoff (Rob Corddry).

1/5
In a day and age where "stealthing" can be considered a form of criminal sexual assault, it's odd to see a movie turn the act of poking holes in a condom or using a man as free insemination for laughs. Go to Full Review

Characters and subplots come and go seemingly at random, and writer-director Thom Harp has no sense of what's potentially funny about any of them. Go to Full Review
Joel Fisher Battle Royale With Cheese Mar 7, 2023
There are some very nice moments which are well thought out and some laugh out loud characters. However, in the end Jaclyn doesn’t really feel like a character who’s learned anything. Go to Full Review
Peter Gray The AU Review Mar 4, 2023
2/5
In trying to inject a serious discussion about sex and parenthood it feels disjointed and ultimately too soft for the rule-breaking comedy it so clearly wants to be. Go to Full Review
Todd Jorgenson Cinemalogue Mar 4, 2023
Contemporary parenting suffers a setback in this thinly sketched comedy. Go to Full Review

..not even vaguely amusing or in any sense believable despite the arduous over-acting of an appealing star who deserves better material. Go to Full Review
