Unfortunately, the accent is soon revealed to be part of a disguise, and the movie is just as quickly unveiled as a clumsy, run-of-the-mill potboiler. A female officer is discovered strangled and tied to the ground; she's the title character, and because of the general's political ambitions, the mystery of who did it and why has to be wrapped up in 36 hours by Travolta and fellow CID officer Madeleine Stowe (\nLast of the Mohicans,\n12 Monkeys). Sexual violence and lurid S\u0026amp;M have been thrown in to shore up the incomprehensible plot, but that only adds to the queasy atmosphere. The supporting actors--an impressive collection including James Woods (\nSalvador), Timothy Hutton (\nOrdinary People), and James Cromwell (\nBabe,\nL.A. Confidential)--don't embarrass themselves, but even they can't make sense of their blustering, macho dialogue. It's amazing that screenwriter William Goldman (who wrote such great and genuinely thrilling films as\nButch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid,\nMarathon Man,\nAll the President's Men, and\nMisery) left his name attached to this script; there's no sign of his usual skill and intelligence. Madeleine Stowe, a graceful presence in any film, is equally wasted. Directed with a lot of empty flash by Simon West (\nCon Air).\n--Bret Fetzer\n\n\nSpecial Features\n\n\nThe Special Edition contains four deleted scenes along with commentary from director Simon West on why they were edited out. Most include character development between Travolta's and Stowe's characters (who knew each other in the past), and one is a different final scene.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 097363290346\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780792159650\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e DVD\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e UsedVeryGood\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ID Shop.ca","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45943178592290,"sku":"MN-ZEJZ-3P5Y","price":5.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0889\/9428\/3554\/files\/51JSE81H05L_7e172ec2-95bb-48f5-b895-f7aa8244bf86.jpg?v=1783606904","url":"https:\/\/kastor.club\/products\/the-generals-daughter-dvd-used","provider":"Kastor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
