Senator Lillian DeHaven (Anne Bancroft) is eager to push through full gender integration into the armed forces, and persuades the would-be Navy secretary that a woman should be given the chance to train alongside men. Lieutenant Jordan O'Neil (Demi Moore, pictured) is given the tough test assignment of elite Navy SEALS combat training, with all involved fully expecting her to fail and be defeated by the punishing physical regime involved.

The sadistic Master Chief John Urgayle (Viggo Mortensen) gives none of his trainees special treatment, especially a woman, but O'Neil shaves her head, develops muscles aplenty and is determined to prove everyone wrong as she is put through her paces, including seeing service in a raid on Libya.

Ridley Scott's film casts Moore, the star of Ghost, in an altogether new role as action heroine, which she pulls off with aplomb. Scott also had a special touch for the action scenes and managed to include submarine footage left over from his brother Tony's film Crimson Tide.
