gwnightscream Bubba Smith, Michael Winslow, David Graf, Leslie Easterbrook, Marion Ramsay, Matt McCoy, G.W. Bailey, Lance Kinsey, Kenneth Mars and George Gaynes star in this 1989 comedy sequel. In this installment, police misfits, Hightower (Smith), Jones (Winslow), Tackleberry (Graf), Callahan (Easterbrook), Hooks (Ramsay), Harris (Bailey) and Proctor (Kinsey) encounter a trio of criminals working for a mastermind who plans on shutting the city down for profit. Gaynes returns as Lassard, McCoy returns as his nephew, Nick who helps solve the case, Mars plays the Mayor and Bruce Mahler also appears as Fackler. This isn't a bad sequel, I've always liked it and recommend it.
kdulai Having seen #5 I had profound doubts that this series, that has exhibited a relentless decline in quality per sequel, could collapse to a less refined sedimentary layer of contemptible trash. Now these eyes have been exposed to the unabated cinematic horror of #6 I must stand corrected. Improbably, the descent to the very yawning maws of the comedic Underworld have abundantly gathered pace through this bloodied abortion.I refuse to believe there was a script. My theory centres on a colonic explosion, smeared upon a roll of toilet paper, that the piffling "stars" were encouraged to interpret through their acting "skills". How else can such loathsome mental detritus be explained?
bob the moo With a crime wave hitting the city, Captain Harris is embarrassed that the Mayor turns to Commandant Lassard for help. Things get worse for Harris when Lassard brings his own men into the department to create a special unit to try and cut out any leaks within the department. With Lassard's team making good progress in the investigation into the gang behind the crimes, Harris seems more concerned with saving face with the Mayor by trying to show up the rest of the unit.Hard to imagine that anyone would come to the Police Academy series in the sixth film and expect it to be anything but the same old stuff that it has been doing for years. As such the plot is the usual collection of simple pratfalls and antics with the slightest plot about catching criminals that few will care about (and more fool those that do). The material drearily goes over old territory but the few fans the film series have will enjoy it and indeed it did draw the very occasional chuckle from me. However I was in a forgiving mood and even I didn't get more than that from it.e of the cast have anything approaching ambition or drive. They seem happy to be sitting in their cartoon characters for all these movies! Gaynes is as dopey as ever but I like that. Graf is dead now and it's sad to think this is his legacy. I have seen him in other films and he's OK when he's not just shouting and firing comedy guns. Winslow needs to get a new act – does anyone find 'the human sound effect' funny anymore? Easterbrook is blonde with large breasts – and that's all the film needs her to do. Schlatter makes a weak lead man and is real poor.Overall then a pretty poor comedy that just does what all the other films do without any real effort or imagination. Fans may forgive it and at least find comfort in the familiarity of the whole thing but the vast majority of viewers will find nothing of value here and probably have had enough within the first twenty minutes.
thebigeasy555 The entire police academy series was one big unfunny absurdity but among the pile of turd the others were this actually stands out.Albeit ever so slightly. Without Steve Guttenberg as that damn idiotic Mahoney you will be actually be able to watch this in full.Normally with his inclusion your praying for the end. The only remotely entertaining character in the series Harris is there with his hapless sidekick Proctor.Their incompetence(a regular occurrence throughout leaks information to the mastermind who is able to carry out the robberies with his criminal gang while the rest of the police academy try aimlessly to track down the law breakers.An average enough story not exactly carried out with great conviction by the actors concerned. The final scenes are pretty acceptable though with the chase scene providing a good build up to the end where the mastermind is revealed as the mayor. If you can bring yourself to watch a police academy film make it this one
