  • G. I. Jane is a 1997 action film, directed by Ridley Scott. The main stars were Demi Moore and Viggo Mortensen. Senator Lillian De Haven of Texas (Anne Bancroft) publicly criticizes the United States Navy for its failure to integrate both male and female recruits to all its services. She strikes a deal, arranging for a series of test cases. A single woman will join each branch currently fully-staffed by males service and try to perform as well as her male colleagues.

  • G. I. Jane is a 1997 action film, directed by Ridley Scott. The main stars were Demi Moore and Viggo Mortensen. Senator Lillian De Haven of Texas (Anne Bancroft) publicly criticizes the United States Navy for its failure to integrate both male and female recruits to all its services. She strikes a deal, arranging for a series of test cases. A single woman will join each branch currently fully-staffed by males service and try to perform as well as her male colleagues. The first test case has Lieutenant Jordan O' Neil (Moore) joining the U.S. Navy Combined Reconnaissance Team. The Lieutenant has to contend with the brutal training regime of Command Master Chief John James Urgayle (Mortensen), trumped up charges of being a lesbian (violating the "Don't ask, don't tell" policy), attempts to relegate her to desk jobs, Senator De Haven' double-cross of her protégé. Her graduation test involves an actual operation in the Libyan Desert. The film performed rather disappointingly in the box office. It earned $48,169,156 in the United States market, the 39th most successful film of its year. But this was still below its overblown budget. Critics felt a major problem was its failure to regard the subject matter sincerely. In a film supposed to "explore the implications of females in the US Military", there is actually very little exploration of the matter. It mainly serves as an excuse for Moore's character to defy gender roles and prove being a badass. Not unlike any other action film. There isn't even mention of other women following in her footsteps or anyone else actually undergoing similar tests in another branch (however, see Executive Meddling on the Trivia page). Others pointed there are exactly three characters with any depth to them O' Neil, Urgayle and De Haven. Anyone else is scenery. It remains an entertaining action film, but not a deep one.
