this is a pretty decent movie.it's quite funny at times.it is a bit too cutesy at times,and a bit dated,but i still liked it.the acting was quite good,and the movie has lot of charmth and warmth.the gimmick in the movie has been done before,so that's not original.but it is done a bit differently here,and its just as good as any other movie in a similar vein.true,it's a fluff piece,but in this case it works.it's certainly a pleasant diversion.it'll probably make you forget about any problems,at least for 2hours,anyway.if you have some time to kill,and nothing else to do,you could do worse than watch this movie.for me,Virtual Mom is a 6/10.

I have seen this movie, I was blown away by the young up-and-coming stars. They were completely in control of their characters. The little girl who played "Hilary" was great. She did a good job, considering she had to play a 40 year old woman in a younger person's body. She is a cross between Julia Roberts and Jennifer Love Hewit.
Sheila McCarthy should be extremely proud of this project.

This movie is woeful, utterly woeful. Anyone who gives it a 10 or anything higher than a 5 needs to get out there and watch some good films. I know I am probably being hard on something that is intended to be children's entertainment - but the film relies on a tired old plot that has been done so many times now (older person gets trapped as younger person etc.) and has been done better. Some examples are Freaky Friday, Big and Vice Versa. I would recommend these movies for children over this film any day.
I would stay well, well clear of this film. Go rent a quality children's movie - don't subject them to 90 minutes of terrible acting a boring and tired plot and an overall bad movie experience.
