Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
The new players, like the original ones (who are still here in full force), are limited to one-shtick roles and are sometimes even more limited than that.

More of the same from the wackiest police force on the streets, and their newly recruited civilian helpers.

Script is merely a collection of gags tied together by the slightest suggestion of a story.

What's so amazing about the Police Academy movies is that they keep being made even though they stopped being funny after the hilarious original.

Jim Drake is credited with the direction and Gene Quintano with the script, though they'd probably appreciate it if you kept it to yourself.
