Editorial reviews

Amazon.co.uk Review
Cruel Intentions plays like high comedy for its first two-thirds, as its two evil heroes, rich stepsiblings Kathryn (Sarah Michelle Gellar) and Sebastian (Ryan Phillippe), blithely ruin lives and reputations with hearts as black as coal. When the movie sticks to the merry ruination of Kathryn and Sebastian's pawns, it's highly enjoyable. Unfortunately, writer-director Roger Kumble undermines everything he's built up with a false ending that's true to neither the reconceived characters nor the original story--revenge is a dish best served cold, not cooked up with unnecessary plot twists. --Mark Englehart, Amazon.com

Based on a novel by Chloë Rayban, Virtual Sexuality is a charming comedy. There aren't any stunning revelations about gender roles and it sometimes looks like yet another movie about two girls fighting over a guy, but that doesn't describe this unexpected British comedy at all due to its female perspective on sex that takes it in an entirely different direction. --Bret Fetzer, Amazon.com

A nice change to see Sarah Michelle Gellar play the evil one instead of the sweet and sensitive one and with her hair back to natural color she pulls it off well.
Sebastian Valmont is bored of the girls he has so easily seduced in the past, sets his shight on his ultimate challenge - the headmasters daughter, Annette Hargrove. Kathryn Merteuil (Sebastians step sister) sees the perfect opportunity for a wager. If Sebastian fails to lure Annette into his bed, he will have to surrender his priceless jaguar, but if he succeeds, he will win the one thing he can't have - Kathryn.
Keeps you interested 'til the end with the movies twists and turns.
