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

Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly
Rotten

Miss Conception 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.

Carina Chocano, Los Angeles Times
Rotten

It feels more like a small-screen distraction.

Sheri Linden, Hollywood Reporter
Rotten

A film that views heterosexual relationships with the sensitivity of a beer commercial.

Tim Grierson, L.A. Weekly
Rotten

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.
