The General's Daughter
Directed by Simon West
When the body of Army Capt. Elisabeth Campbell is found on a Georgia military base, two investigators, Warrant Officers Paul Brenner and Sara Sunhill, are ordered to solve her murder. What they uncover is anything but clear-cut. Unseemly details emerge about Campbell's life, leading to allegations of a possible military coverup of her death and the involvement of her father, Lt. Gen. Joseph Campbell. From TMDB

15 of 15 · most liked firstIn 1999 I was 17 and went to see "The General's Daughter", a movie so technically bad on every level and ALSO offensive that it is probably the single piece of art most responsible for me having a pessimistic side to my personality.

neutral · AI labelView post →I'm off today and am lightly baked. I decided to watch a movie and stumbled on The General's Daughter. I haven't seen it in a while but remember it being solid. As I've been watching, James Woods entered the scene. It kills me that he's MAGA because he's a brilliant actor. Same with Jim Caviezel. 😢🤬

neutral · AI labelView post →Nelson DeMille had his protagonist watching the film of The General's Daughter, which was disappointing.
negative · AI labelView post →You ever see the General's Daughter? That movie reminds me of where we are.
neutral · AI labelView post →Not the strongest mystery-drama-thriller but serviceable if not also pretty heavy in a few scenes dealing with a woman's brutal sexual assault. Travolta gives a fine performance as does the reliable James Cromwell, not to mention James Woods and Madeline Stowe. This is probably my third time viewing, first in a long while, but still found it engaging as well as really sad. 3.75/5
