John Lewis, a programming genius, has it all- a beautiful wife and a child, a lavish home and he's on the brink of making it big after he finishes one last project, a CD-Rom Sex Game called Virtual Girl. However, things get complicated when a woman in a VR simulation becomes “real” and falls in love with the VR system creator.

If you like fake boobs, special effects that were cruddy in 1998 and practically look like cave paintings today, the worst episodes of shows like Tales From The Darkside and The Hitchhiker, being bored out of your skull and seeing a man embarrass himself as a writer, director and actor…Virtual Girl is your dream movie. If what you enjoy are motion pictures that don't make you want to wrap your belt around your neck and do an impression of David Carradine…keep your eyes and ears away from this base concoction.John Lewis (Max Dixon) is a computer programmer who's getting no love at work and no love at home from his wife (Miche Rene Straub). His dickish boss assigns John to work out the bugs in a new game called Virtual Girl. Players strap themselves into a sensor suit, enter the artificial reality of the game and they get to have sex with a cyber-hooker named Virtuality (Charlie Curtis). The program appears to have a mind of its own and Virtuality becomes so obsessed with John that she extends her influence into the real world until John is forced to confront his digital fatal attraction. There's also the completely pointless appearance of the real world model of Virtuality and a twist that is so groan-inducingly stupid even M. Night Shyamalan would say "Man, that was really dumb".Now, there are a lot of scenes in this film were women are topless, particularly the physically impressive Charlie Curtis. That tells me the folks who made Virtual Girl weren't total nincompoops. They can probably dress and feed themselves and know to have exact change for the bus. But those topless women are the only thing of any value in this movie, only two of them are attractive and some of the boobs are quite fake-looking. The writing and direction on display here barely qualifies as professional, the acting is porn-level bad and the computer effects look like the product of a dateless 17 year old with an Amiga and nothing to do over the weekend.If this thing were 25 minutes long and on HBO so all the nudity was intact, this would have been perfect for frustrated adolescents to try and watch on scramblevision. At 84 minutes long, it's like watching your grandma die. From continuing to employ establishing shots for locations the audience has seen 5 or 6 times already to a soundtrack that defied space and time to travel back to 1998 from the 2000 Gene Roddenberry TV show Andromeda, Virtual Girl is a cornucopia of weak-ass movie making.Let me put it this way. There's only one thing you can use this film for and you'd be better off using the women's underwear section from a 1956 Sears catalog. At least you'd be less ashamed when you finished.

OK, I really haven't sat through many soft-core flicks because they are just terribly boring.But there are three good reasons to remember this film. Two of them are on sex kitten Charlie Curtis. And, the third is that this is the funniest, campiest script I have hear in a long time. The lines -- whether deliberately written as a parody or not -- are just devastatingly funny. For example: "if you're not happy all the time with your wife, I can take up the slack."or,Programmer: "You're asking me to work on a cyber-sex toy for chronic masturbators!"Boss: "They're our client base."It's just a totally outrageous, deadpan acted, mindless, cheesy looking story. It's sort of a soft-core TRON, with poor sap Max Dixon (yep, now there's a stud stage name for ya) wresting to save his virtue in cyberspace. Curtis plays the role of a virtual-reality sex doll to the hilt, and gives a whole new nuance to "hard drive" and "interface." In one arresting scene she morphs into various ladies who all manage to have the same bra cup size for the sake of, er, film continuity.If you want to do your own home-grown R-rated version of "Mystery Science Theater" this is the flick to watch.

It is about a virtual girl who falls in love with a man. How can a software/computer fall in love with its programmer? well!!! the case is that they live a torrid romance in virtual world where she knows exactly all of his fantasies and will do anything to satisfy him... UNTIL he decides to quit dating the virtual girl. Somehow she goes out of the vitual world to the real world and things could turn freak and nasty. And yes!! it's got a plot. And yes!! it is about sex.Do I recommend it? I don't know it just depends on what you're looking for. I just like science fiction and this movie contains a lot of science fiction. How can anyone know the deepest sex fantasies you have? And further more, how can a computer program use them? It's weird, but in a sense wouldn't you like to know a woman who knew all this and was acting the way you ever dreamed? the virtual girl does it.

Caught this one on a trip to Florida in 2000 to see the Jets game. It was my first night on the trip, and I was beat so I headed back to the hotel from the bars around 1 AM. This was showing on whatever the heck station in Fort Lauderdale. The plot is decent - you dont often get that in soft core stuff. The main characters are bearable to look at and listen to. Even Charlie Curtis showed some ability to act. It could've been done better perhaps. The computer-ish graphics, while part of the plot, serve to cheese up things a bit. In summary, yeah I'd nail Virtuosity. Er, I mean decent, catch it if you can.
