It has some moments. Characters are insanely over the top cliche's, but it's goofy enough to be entertaining.
Just fun. Like all the others. Great watch with family.
A Decreasing level of quality with every sequel.
For a fourth movie in a series it holds up well against the first three.
Pretty funny but definitely not as good as the first three. It’s the final film to feature Steve Guttenberg so that alone is worth watching.
Continues the slapdash comedy of the series. The citizen recruits made it slightly better than (not as bad as) some of the other sequels.
Goofy and churned out, America's answer to the carry-on movies
things started to take a very downhill turn after the first 2 films. the third was where it got cartoonish and this is just awful.
The last good Police Academy movie. Once Steve Guttenberg departed, there was no point.
Overly simplistic humor, aiming for easy laughs. Falls short in delivering substantial comedy.
