It takes more than sex to make a baby

ComedyRomance

Conception is a clever, romantic comedy that proves it takes more than sex to make a baby. From a couple fighting the odds of fertility to young teenagers losing their virginity, the film follows nine very different couples on the night they conceive, showing that sex can sometimes be more neurotic than erotic. The hilarious ensemble cast includes Emmy-winner Julie Bowen and Sarah Hyland (“Modern Family”), Connie Britton (“Friday Night Lights”), David Arquette (Never Been Kissed), Jason Mantzoukas (“The League”), and Alan Tudyk (Dodgeball).

VIBE

This film feels like a series of awkward, yet endearing, conversations about sex and relationships. It's a neurotic, funny, and surprisingly heartfelt look at the messy realities of conception and the diverse paths to parenthood.
