Private Benjamin
1980
After her husband drops dead on their wedding night, spoiled society girl Judy Benjamin (Goldie Hawn) decides to join the army -- a choice with consequences both explosive and explosively funny. The situation is mined (no pun intended) for plenty of laughs, but in the end, this classic comedy is about Judy's inspiring search for identity and independence. Eileen Brennan co-stars as the tough-as-nails captain determined to teach Judy a lesson.

Comedy, Spoof
Goldie Hawn plays a ditzy blond well. A bit funny, and somewhat cute, though a lot of the movie felt like filler. Not a compelling story or comedy.
