Storyline

Desperate to find her perfect man Justine goes to a technology fair with her nerdy classmate Chas. It's not really her thing but is eventually persuaded to try a virtual reality makeover machine and discovers that she can create her perfect man even if it is only an electronic facsimile. The power surge from a freakish accident causes a part of her psyche to be copied into her virtual perfect man and he becomes real! Chas befriends the somewhat disoriented newly created man, who calls himself Jake, and he explains that it is really Justine inside. Justine is immediately attracted to Jake but he seems more interested in the voluptuous, man-eater known as "the Hoover" who seems to posses an innate ability to attract men without even trying! In sheer frustration Justine decides to date the sleazy Alex in an attempt to become a woman. As the day of the big date looms what will Chas and Jake do to thwart Justine and eventually what will become of Jake?

[Talking about the differences between teen boys and girls]
Justine: Girls can laugh till they wet their pants together, why can't boys do that too?

Alternate Versions

The imposing "magic marker" lines over the guys' genitals in the locker room were ostensibly placed there to avoid an "NC-17" rating.

Silly But Funny – In the End, A Good Entertainment

Justine (Laura Fraser) is a Londoner teenager, frustrated for not having a boy friend and for not having had sex yet. Her best friend and advisor is Fran (Marcelle Duprey), and she is decided to have her first sexual experience with the athlete Alex (Kieran O'Brien), who is disputed by many girls. When Justine goes to a Fair of Technology with her nerd friend Chas (Luke De Lacey), she uses a virtual machine and creates her perfect man. However, due to an accident with a great explosion, the virtual man becomes real. He self-calls Jake (Rupert Penry-Jones), becomes a close friend of Chas and is a good athlete and successful with the girls. The predictable conclusion of the story offers no surprises. "Virtual Sexuality" is a silly, but also funny romantic comedy. The actresses are very beautiful, the soundtrack is excellent and in the end, this movie is a good entertainment. My vote is six.
