" When the daughter of a well-known and well-respected base commander is murdered, an undercover detective is summoned to look into the matter and finds a slew of cover-ups at West Point. Based on the novel by Nelson DeMille, the film ended up being a hit in theatres, but not with critics."

“Hammy, overwrought, and over-the-top, The General's Daughter is still good for some rainy day entertainment, as long as the creepy rape/homicide story”

" Timothy Hutton as Colonel Kent Clarence Williams III as Colonel Fowler James Woods as Colonel Moore"

"When: July 27th First-Time Viewing: Yes. How: DVD from the library. What'd I Think?: Melodramatic, overwrought and exploitative, this film lacks the nuance needed to handle this subject matter. My Rating: 4/10 Other Notes: NA."

" DVD- 1hr. 56min. First Viewing The General's Daughter is just really stupid. It's a regressive, exploitative film that honestly believes that it's making a point about the military, gender and rape culture. The only point it makes, however, is that Hollywood really needs to pick better scripts. "
