This movie seemed to me like the remake of an old 'Cagney and Lacey' plot. Dated, in a word. James Woods is too in-your-face as usual. John Travolta did a good impression of Bruce Willis, but what do you expect from two limited actors? Madeleine Stowe was underused. There were too many scenes of the 'victim' spread-eagled on the grass. And the corporal in the locker room was just too glib. Doesn't everybody know all this already? Especially after 'tailhook'? Then again, a story of, and vivid pictures of, a violent gang rape will pack 'em in, so ... Hooray for Hollywood. What did I expect?
