Police Academy
When the Police Academy adopts a completely open admissions policy, no height or weight restriction, and most worryingly no intelligence tests. Hence a large number of unemployable social misfits promptly enroll. The academy instructors have the most difficult wave of recruits to train up: they include Laverne Hooks the tiny voiced woman; Karen Thompson the sociopath (Kim Cattrall); Eugene Tackleberry the firearm fan and Larvell Jones the walking sound-effect. Carey Mahoney (Steve Guttenburg) is a reluctant cadet of a different kind--he must last the course at the Academy as an alternative to jail. This hilarious motley crew are the last, blundering buffoons you would want as upholders of the law, as your protectors. The crooks never had it so good.

Appallingly unfunny series of snippets about police training, like an American Carry On with few jokes leading to a punch line and occasional resorting to dirty bits.

Guttenburg, the Marlon Brando of the comedy genre
This film is mint. The comic timing the fresh jokes the innuendos, oh how I laughed until I soiled myself. I watched Police Academy as a ten year old boy, and ... read more »

Classic 80's comedy
A classic. It feels a little tired and dated now but the original Police Academy has enough laugh out loud moments to stay entertaining today.
