	Media	Author	Review
		Roger Ebert rogerebert.com	"The training sequences are as they have to be: incredible rigors (...) Scott brings a documentary attention to them (...) Demi Moore proves she can chew it (…) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 4)"
		Todd McCarthy Variety	"A very entertaining get-tough fantasy with political and feminist underpinnings. After a number of respective career stumbles, Moore and Scott return to fine form."
		John Krewson AV Club	"If you're looking for a film that addresses a woman's place in a combat unit, keep waiting. If you want a film where a woman can get big muscles and shoot guns and have her husband still love her, here you are."
		Peter Travers Rolling Stone	"Down in the mud with the guys, Moore finds the heart of her character and a career beyond vanity and hype. She's never looked better."
		Deborah Brown Empire	"In spite of a catalogue of downsides, including clunky dialogue, fuzzy morals and preposterous story lines, 'G.I. Jane' does offer a perverse level of enjoyment (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"
