Critic Reviews

Sheri Linden

A light touch keeps the film from being an ordeal, but the story's trajectory is as predictable as the setup is contrived. Read full review

Owen Gleiberman

Graham is charming, but Miss Conception is a cloddish biological-clock bedroom farce. Read full review

Carina Chocano

Isn't so much a movie as an extended sitcom -- it looks like one, it acts like one, it reduces everything to the lowest common denominator like one. Read full review

Tim Grierson

Miss Conception's dim view of women soon transcends unexamined and goes straight to offensive. Read full review

Peter Debruge

Miscast and miscalculated, Miss Conception hopes to collect on Hollywood's recent baby-on-board craze, delivering instead the least credible take on human pregnancy since Arnold Schwarzenegger gave birth in "Junior." Read full review
