Best Quote: "Not exactly a four star hotel, is it?" "Well, we spend our police budget on fighting criminals, not on pampering out of town visitors." "It was your government that brought us here!" "They also bring in monkeys for zoo, but we don't put them in four star hotel either!"

- Captain Harris & Lieutenant Talinsky

The Russian Government, in it's infanite wisdom, has hired Commendant Lessard and his wacky bunch of officers to help stop the Russian maffia!

Some of our favourite heros are back: sounds master Jones (Michael Winslow); Gun maniac Tackleberry (the late David Graf); well-formed Callahan (Leslie Easterbrook) and Captain Harris, the foil of the movie.

The Russian mob leader is using a nerd who created a video game that the whole world is playing. With this game, he can hack into any bank he wants. He steal money, card numbers, you name it. That is, unless our heros can stop him.

Personal Comments

This movie is SO bad that I didn't even finish it. (!)

I can't stand it! MOST of the original Police Academy stars are gone; the plot stunk; and, I was wondering, WHY would the RUSSIAN GOVERNMENT hire some unknown looser cops from some city in the USA? wouldn't they want to use THEIR OWN soldiers against the mob?

Plot:
This plot just plain SUCKS!

Visual Effects:
MAYBE a couple. (I'm being VERY generous.)

Sound:
Even the Police Academy theme can't help this catagory.

Character Development:
next to none.

Atmosphere:

Realism:
This is just too much. I mean, the plot is TOTALLY unbeliveable. WHO GETS PAID TO WRITE THIS SCHLOCK?!?!?

Warren's Rating:

FINAL RATING
