So much average

Overrated and overhyped

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

This is a parody on the modern relationships style between men and women in America. Men are diminished to a pet role and are in the mercy of its owners- hysterical bit***s called women. I am a woman myself, but with non-American cultural background. Children are copying this model of behavior from an early age. Just look at how little girls talk to little boys. I could only stomach 30 minutes of this so called comedy. Frankly, if people rate this movie as light and insightful, funny and smart, excellent and hilarious, we have gone too far. Humiliation of men as species and showing women as dominating hysterical bit***s became a trend and many find it quite entertaining. Rather sad picture. Men are losing their masculinity and then complain when women dump them because they don't find them appealing anymore. This is not an equality feminism was fighting for, this is an ugly distortion of a healthy role of men and women in a relationship.

"Conception" is charming, cute, and sincere. The situations are realistic and relatable, and the characters are true ... and it hits every note perfectly. I won't summarize it here (it's pretty clear what the storyline is!), I'll give the filmmakers credit for finding new ways to surprise us, to keep the stories engaging, and to make the relationships, whether they're brand-new or established, realistic and sweet. And although you might think it's going to end in a very predictable way, it doesn't. The ending is more poignant than you might expect. It's certainly not a movie for kids, but certainly a good movie for a date (maybe not a first date!), or if you and the Mrs. (or Mr.) have a night without the kids. It's easy to understand why this was a festival success.

This is a great date night movie to either inspire baby-making or discourage it, depending on your place in life ;)It is really funny, the characters were all really human, and I could relate to the situations.The film touches on all the ways in which babies are conceived, for better and for worse, but handles it all with levity and humor. The performances are all excellent and it's directed and shot with a light touch.Gregory Smith, one of my favorite young actors, is a adorable and very sexy. This film should have had a theatrical release, but I was lucky enough to be able to see it on demand.Cute, refreshing, and a little bit of raunch!

Caught this terrific little movie at a film festival and wondered why can't Hollywood, with its huge budgets, manage to turn out something half this good.Conception tackles a tricky subject with humor and warmth. In our baby obsessed culture, trying to conceive is on many people's minds. The script managed to find the humor in it and reveled in the small moments.The cast was terrific. Great to see some television actors get to flex different muscles. The interactions felt genuine and real and touching. It's nice to watch a movie that manages to walk the line between comedy and being heartfelt without feeling overdone and treacly. Conception does this with style and grace.I wonder why there aren't more smart, charming romantic comedies like Conception.
