DVD Reviews of G.I. Jane

DVD Review: Ridley Scott's "Lemon"
Summary: 1 Stars

I never had the opportunity to see this movie on it's initial release so decided to purchase the dvd.I was looking forward to a good action and some drama for which Ridley Scott is known.We also enjoy Anne Bancroft's acting and her appearance in the movie would be a bonus. My wife and I sat down and watched it and were annoyed at wasting good money on low-fare entertainment.The gung-ho portrayal of the navy is very typical of hollywood, unrealistic and extremely corny (I cringed when the characters all started saying "hoo-ya" ). After the torture scene we just felt annoyed that a possibly good story turned farcical and I watched the rest of the movie on fast-play out of mere curiosity. I would give this one star and no more.This was highly dissapointing, the only redeeming part was the opening scene with Anne Bancroft and the end-credits.

DVD Review: G.I. Jane
Summary: 5 Stars

My partner's favorite movie. Demi is hot! Especially when she shaves her head.

DVD Review: Lame movie
Summary: 1 Stars

The lamest movie ever. The whole movie is fake, of course. Aside from its anti-military MAN message, it's a catastrophe. What's all with the grey, filtered and dark scenes? It was like every scene was strangling me. Dark, grey, color-less and boring. The final scenes were horrible. First of all, the US Navy does not operate Eurocopter Super Puma helicopters (shown being used to rescue the stranded SEAL team) and it also does not operate AH-1 single engine Cobra attack helicopters. It never did. US Army for a while used them in Vietnam in mid 60s before switching to more modern versions of it. The last scene is horrible. Were they filming a disco dance? I think instead shaking the camera like idiots they should have really spent a few more bucks using high quality special effects. I can't give this junk movie any better rating. Zero! Horrible!

DVD Review: Waste of time
Summary: 1 Stars

Why anyone would want to waste time and money seeing this movie is beyond me. Demi Moore, even to the most generous critic, has limited talent as an actress, and the movie stinks! I have no objection to a woman wanting to serve in a commando unit, but the plot line is laughable, unless you want to see how well Demi Moore fills out her tightly fitted t-shirt. And how any woman in the military managed to get such tight-fitting outfits is interesting, did she have a custom tailor? The business about seeing her as one of the 'guys' is a bit hard given her apparent choice of attire. Still, maybe that's why people watched it, it was good for a laugh. Movies like this make it clear why Demi Moore's movie career, such as it was, has tanked.

DVD Review: superb
Summary: 5 Stars

its been along time since i have seen this movie so thought i would buy it as i remember it was a good movie. well it was fantastic and on blu-ray it made the movie seem like a recent movie it didn't seem old at all great story, very well done and demi in one of her best

Description of G.I. Jane

Demi Moore (DISCLOSURE, INDECENT PROPOSAL) is in top form in this action-packed hit! Moore stars as gutsy Lieutenant O'Neil, the first woman ever given the opportunity to earn a place in the armed forces most highly skilled combat unit -- the elite Navy SEALS! But the already brutal rigors of training camp turn into an unimaginable test of courage and determination once it becomes clear that no one -- powerful politicians, top military brass, or her male Navy SEAL teammates -- wants her to succeed! A critically acclaimed triumph directed by action hitmaker Ridley Scott (ALIEN, THELMA & LOUISE) -- you'll cheer for G.I. JANE as this brave soldier proves she belongs among the best of the best!
It seemed like a pretty good career move, and for the most part it was. Demi Moore will never top any rational list of great actresses, but as her career stalled in the mid-1990s she had enough internal fire and external physicality to be just right for her title role in G.I. Jane. Her character's name isn't Jane--it's Jordan O'Neil--but the fact that she lacks a penis makes her an immediate standout in her elite training squad of Navy SEALs. She's been recruited as the first female SEAL trainee through a series of backroom political maneuvers, and must prove her military staying power against formidable odds--not the least of which is the abuse of a tyrannical master chief (Viggo Mortensen) who puts her through hell to improve her chances of success. Within the limitations of a glossy star vehicle, director Ridley Scott manages to incorporate the women-in-military issue with considerable impact, and Moore--along with her conspicuous breast enhancements and that memorable head-shaving scene--jumps into the role with everything she's got. Not a great movie by any means, but definitely a rousing crowd pleaser, and it's worth watching just to hear Demi shout the words "Suck my ----!!" (rhymes with "chick"). --Jeff Shannon
