Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Justine (the delightful Laura Fraser), the heroine of Virtual Sexuality, thinks her life is ruined because she's a 17-year-old virgin. Through her friend Chas (Luke DeLacey), she tries to maneuver a cute but boorish athlete into a date, but he stands her up. Despondent, she and Chas go to a virtual reality exhibition, which features a virtual makeover machine--but instead of modeling a different version of herself, Justine creates a 3-D image of her perfect man. Due to a freak accident, Justine suddenly finds herself inside of that male body--she's become her own ideal mate (Rupert Penry-Jones)--and the life of a boy isn't the one she wants to live. This charming comedy is being marketed as if this plot twist didn't exist, which is peculiar because this is what makes the movie fun. There aren't any stunning revelations about gender roles as Chas teaches "Jake"--the name the male Justine gives herself--but there's a sweet playfulness to how Jake interacts with his body and the rest of the world. Fraser and Penry-Jones are perfectly matched; they do a superb job of seeming like the same personality in two different bodies. Its ads make Virtual Sexuality look like yet another movie about two girls fighting over a guy, but that doesn't describe this unexpected British comedy at all--its female perspective on sex takes it in an entirely different direction. Based on a novel by Chloë Rayban. --Bret Fetzer

- amzon has it all
This is a movie I had seen when I was very young, I doubted I would be able to see it any other time, but amazon had It and I am very happy with the fast delivery and the quality of the product. Great Purchase.

- Don't get out much, do you.
My first observation is that a lot of your 4/5 star reviews of Virtual Sexuality are from american viewers. All I can assume is you have a slightly tainted view of British humour, and assume this garbage passes as decent movie fair here in Blighty. It doesn't.
Justine. A weak character on whom the basis is thankfully rarely placed, her only motivation is that at 17 (if she or any of the rest of the cast is really 17 then this is a 5 star film) she has yet to lose her virginity. Incapable ... Read More

- Not what you exected...
...If you read the description on the back of the box. I was looking for a stupid, pointless, and thoroughly predictable romantic comedy. What I got was a wry, funny, and unexpected movie more than willing to poke fun at itself for the silly premise. Rather than a Pygmailion-like story of a creation come to life, this movie was more about understanding both sides of the gender line.

When Justine becomes Jake, her computer designed fantasy bloke, she gets (or has) to go places always ... Read More

- Cute movie!
At first this film seemed like it wasn't going to be that great - it was coming across to me as puerile and unoriginal. However, ten minutes later I decided I was completely wrong - it's an excellent movie! All right, it's never going to be great art, but it was still very enjoyable. All three leads were brilliant, interacting really well together and making me laugh out loud lots of times, and the slightly offbeat humour was refreshingly different from a lot of chick flick movies.
