Inconceivable (2008)
2/10
tiresome style and flat repetitive story
27 January 2018
Dr. Freeman (Colm Feore) runs a fertility clinic in Vegas. Over a weekend, eight out of nine cases deliver a baby. Sally Marsh (Jennifer Tilly) is the only failure but she seduces the doctor. Tutu Williams (Elizabeth McGovern) notices the similarity in the babies and investigates the possible malpractice.

The only thing going for this is the cast. It's filled with interesting actors. The plot moves slowly and story telling is very repetitive. Every step is taken a dozen time. The first step should be DNA tests on the babies but the movie doesn't touch it. The camera and editing style is over-the-top which is ill-fitting for this movie. It's not an action movie. It's some kind of bad flat writing trying to be an experimental thriller. There are interesting tidbits about the clients but it's well into the second hour before it's revealed. When the style doesn't drive you nuts, the pacing would bore you to tears. There is also the ridiculous reveal where unbelievable incompetence is the explanation. When the character can't explain it, the movie has no chance.
