Conception

The movie is just so very well done. It is truly excellent. It's about what happens at conception. I am a prude and I went to see this movie at the Newport Beach Film Festival because Alan Tudyk is in this movie. In my opinion Alan usually steals every scene. In this movie everyone did a great job. I really loved Jonathan Silverman and Jennifer Finnigan all the couples had different situations and it was well balanced. There are many different situations in which people conceive. There were moments when I looked away during certain parts. I enjoyed all the stories because of the honesty that came through. The way this movie was edited was really well done. Alan Tudyk was great as always.

I left the theater very happy to have been able to see this movie. This is one of those little gems that is precious and hard to find. If you want to watch a hilariously funny, sexy romantic comedy this is the movie for you.

Saw this at Palm Beach!!! Outstanding! So well written and executed.One of my absolute favorites of the PB Film Festival. Cast is so diverse and all the couples stories flow so well. Several of my favorite actors are in this movie. I went to high school with the writer/director, Josh Stolberg and I am SOO proud of him. His amazing talent truly shines in this film. For anyone who has had a baby, is trying to make a baby, has kids, etc - you will totally get this movie. Just found out it is being released on Video on Demand Friday, February 24th!! I will be watching it again. I strongly urge anyone who likes sexy, romantic comedies to put this at the top of your Must See list!

Conception (2011) is a comedy drama movie that was written and directed by Josh Stolberg with a great ensemble cast and it was pretty good.

Positives for Conception (2011): I like the idea behind this movie where you focus on these 7 different couples on their relationships in small sections. You have a great ensemble cast and they play their roles very well. The comedy and drama are balanced well enough. The movie moves at a great pace that keeps your attention from start to finish. And finally, the ending montage during the end credits is pretty funny.

Negatives for Conception (2011): Theree isn't enough time given with these couples for me to fully care about them. This movie needed 20 or 30 more minutes to spend time with these characters for me to care about them as people. And finally, this doesn't feel like a movie that Josh Stolberg would make, it could literally be made by anyone and you wouldn't know the difference.

Overall, Conception (2011) is a good comedy drama movie from a filmmaker doing something different which I can respect, but I won't be in the rush to rewatch it anytime soon.

"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.

Some truly memorable lines. I would like to quote a few, but it might distract others. Excellent ensemble cast. Parts of the film hit so close to home that it could be uncomfortable in a good way. Rent it on Apple's website. Sounds cliché, but there is something for everyone. The age range of the characters and both sexes are (almost) equally represented is a plus. Some big names in the film. Check it out. The film is easy to relate to. Some interesting scenarios and circumstances. A good date movie. I learned a lot about the details of conception and childbirth that I didn't previously know. Both actresses form Modern Family were excellent.
