I haven't seen Private Benjamin for years - I must see that again, to see what I think of it today. I remember watching the TV series as a kid, and when I did see it, it was not long after rewatching reruns of the show - and I was comparing the two and didn't like the film as a result. But it would be interesting to rewatch the film today, since I have very little memory of the TV series today, other than that I watched it. I might be able to judge the film on its own merits.
