Stephen C Funny in 1 hour and 35 minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/30/25 Full Review Oaklee D A witty and smartly stupid comedy film. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/03/25 Full Review Erik B First in the series of movies about misfit police recruits trying to survive the academy. Super silly and very 80's, but a good time can be had if you lower your expectations and remember the era this movie was made in. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/07/25 Full Review r96 s 'Police Academy' is proper lacklustre. I didn't find any of it amusing, even so I can usually see why a film may actually work for others - not here. Given I've heard of this franchise, I assume folk enjoy these so I am a tad surprised. To me, it's just all a rather limp effort. The characters have one joke associated to them (e.g. tall man, quiet woman, wannabe war guy etc.) and it's just repeated numerous times throughout the movie; it doesn't get any funnier. How many times do they play the theme song, btw? It is catchy to be fair, but damn. Michael Winslow is the only plus that I have for this. I wasn't aware of him until this very moment, those voice sounds are outrageously brilliant; even had me questioning if they were dubbed over sound effects. Awesome talent! Of the rest of the cast, Donovan Scott is the 'best' (?). I found lead Steve Guttenberg to be more annoying than anything else, shame we never got Bruce Willis instead; he auditioned for the role, so I read. Elsewhere, Kim Cattrall is underused; interesting to see her 'Mannequin' co-star G. W. Bailey in this though, he is OK. Despite everything, in the end when the credits rolled around I didn't hold any annoyance or anything towards the flick. The feeling is more so how lame and low quality it comes across, I expected snappier comedy. Lastly, how are there 7 of these movies?! I'm in for a ride... Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/23/25 Full Review thiago s Filme bacana, o roteiro é bacaninha, o filme tem cenas bacanas e algumas engraçadas, o filme só faz Paródia sobre a polícia mesmo, não tem Paródias sobre outros filmes, tem um personagem bom que faz o beatbox ajudou um pouco no filme, de resto o filme não é muito engraçado, mas eu recomendo só por algumas cenas. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/25 Full Review Cedric G Not sure how anyone can hate on this movie although I only see a few critics giving it a bad review. I was 9 when this movie came out and I still love it to this day as much as I loved it then. Maybe it's nostalgia or the reminder of simpler times in life & the world but this movie always puts a smile on my face and puts me at ease. Might I might add that a young Kim Cattrall is a always bonus. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 09/02/24 Full Review Read all reviews
