| Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Police Academy |
|---|
George Gaynes stars as the commandant of the police Academy. When Carrie Mahonie gets in trouble for tipping a customer's car at a car park, he has two choices, either go and join the police academy, or go to jail.
--Simon Webb, Resident Scholar

Polica Academy... What can I say... It was the movie that produced series of the worst sequels to date ( PA:s 3,5 and 7 are disaster movies!). But still, even though it's silly humor and unbelievably poor plot might drive you insane, it is still pretty nostalgic to see this first one.
--Tero Hakulinen, Resident Scholar
