Twelve extremely talented men and women have been chosen to be part of the Phaeton mission, a 10-year trek to explore a distant planetary system. In order to endure the stress of being confined to their high-tech vessel, the crew passes the time using advanced virtual reality modules that allow them to take on various identities. But as the ship approaches a critical phase of their journey, a deadly flaw is discovered in the virtual system, forcing them to question if someone onboard might be a killer.

SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped
CommentsXp Best movie ever!
Seraherrera The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity
Wayne Please, don't bother with this trash. On the pretense that you are going to send people to space, wouldn't you think that they would have done some compatibility tests beforehand, really, not let them just have a drama llama space flight. C'mon, really? This is nonsense and five minutes anywhere to finish, five minutes you get the idea that this is ridiculous. side note, camera work is awful, just absolutely awful. It refines the words blah blah blah. I'd rather watch slugs eating lettuce than this mental drainer piece of crap. If this movie comes up in your guide, pass. Eat cardboard, that we would be more rewarding, though I cant vouch for that. This movie makes the advertising more interesting, really. Love to all.
Gordon-11 This film is about the twelve astronauts who are on a spacecraft, going to a distant star that takes ten years to arrive. On board, things start to go wrong and yet they cannot turn back."Virtuality" seems good on paper. It is directed by a famous director, has several known (but not very famous) stars, and an intriguing plot. However, it does not seem to work well. The story might have been interesting, but the delivery of the plot is very confusing. There are many mystifying events on board the spacecraft, and these events are not explained well. I was hoping that the ending would bring some answers, but it brings even more unanswered questions. All the confusion annoys rather than being thought stimulating. In addition, the film fails to grip viewers or to provide suspense for viewers to beg for me. "Virtuality" is a disappointingly confusing film.
hella_bull Being that this movie has an avg rating of a 6.8, I thought I'd give it a shot. Thank God I didn't pay to see it. It had several flaws that I noticed, but I ignored them to give the movie a chance. Then, without notice, the movie all of a sudden ended! I was like, WTF?? I had to come back on here just to read some reviews to see what the hell the story was. When I found out it was a made for TV movie, and the pilot to a TV series, it made a lot more sense. This movie just leaves you hanging. Many parts of it are totally unbelievable and there is no resolution whatsoever. If there were at least a few episodes after it in which you could pick the story up I may be a little less judgmental. All in all, I could have found something better to do with my time than watch this movie.
Lars Madsen While it isn't the be-all/end-all, I liked it overall. I can't believe though that the comp rating for this is 6.6 when Event Horizon gets a 6.3 and Terminator Salvation gets a 7.1 and Transformers gets a 7.4. Where's the justice in that? Anyway, I'll be interested to see what comes of this as a series. BSG had its moments that stretched into infinity, but overall the series was spectacular, so I'll give these guys enough rope to run with or hang themselves.The infiltrated VR system is a neat hook, the idea of a possible life-after-death in VR land, the problems of whom to believe and trust as cabin fever sets in, this is all fertile ground for plot (and thus character) development. Plus, they took the entire pilot introducing you to a character who dies in the end. Gotta respect a writing team who is willing to invest in a doomed character! True: none of the characters were dazzling, but then, have you ever watched a reality show and given a damn about anyone on it? (If so, please seek help.) A few of them at least have potential; Jensen and his simulated child, for one example.Man up, folks. Whether you like it or not, sci fi is not always about chest-bursting aliens, "moon-based lazers", killer cyborgs (whether they disguise themselves as crappy American cars or not), or spaceships that become possessed by demons. Sometimes its just about how technology affects the way people live and interact with each other.
