Review of G.I. Jane

G.I. Jane (1997)
5/10
Yo Jane!

The movie is part of what I call, Demi Moore's bad movie trilogy (this includes Striptease and The Scarlet Letter). GI Jane is the worst of the three. The movie was a wanna be Top Gun with a political intrigue. By the way all three movies, Demi's characters all stood up to corrupt politicians. The movie was over the top, goofy (not in a good way) and Viggo Mortensen's Master Chief was creepy. Ann Bancroft was campy as the sleezy politician.

However, the movie came out in the wrong time. If it came out today, people would praise it as daring, brave and progressive and Mrs. Moore would have received all sorts of accolades. Should the film be remade? Yes with a director who focuses on the human story of a lone woman competing in a male dominate world.

Though in Demi Moore's defense she did not deserve all those Razzie Nominations. At that time, it was cool to dump on her because she starred in a string of stinkers and she demanded equal pay.
