When the body of Army Capt. Elizabeth 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.

I got no understanding of the hate for this movie. The General's Daughter is a good crime thriller with good acting and some good twists. Yes...it pulls on some strings I'd rather see it didn't, but it doesn't break the movie or the story in any way. The movie also brings light to an ugly problem in the military...and that is never a bad thing. In any case, I recommend The General's Daughter to anyone with the slightest interest in crime movies...

Not quite sure why this has a below 7 average rating. It´s a crime movie in a military setting. Plot isn´t that bad, acting is decent. It´s not even a bad cast. It´s a good two hour entertainment.

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 More
