    USA Today Susan Wloszczyna

    Well-intentioned even as it surrenders to commercialism, G.I. Jane comes on like the ultimate battle of the sexes. But it ends up being an unfulfilling exercise in pseudo-feminism. [22 August 1997, p. 7D]

    Chicago Sun-Times Roger Ebert

    The training sequences are as they have to be: incredible rigors, survived by O'Neil. They are good cinema because Ridley Scott, the director, brings a documentary attention to them, and because Demi Moore, having bitten off a great deal here, proves she can chew it.

    Variety Todd McCarthy

    A very entertaining get-tough fantasy with political and feminist underpinnings.
