The third Police Academy movie, and I'm still liking it! Why? It's still funny, has all the same actors, and the story's not bad. If you liked the first two, see this one too.

On my defense, i was sick on bed these days. Two stars just for Leslie Easterbrook's boobs.
A fairly solid sequel that goes back to training, but doesn't become a rehash of the first film. Another thing...Goodbye, Mauser! It was nice knowing you.
I watched this on a triple showing with parts 4 & 5, so it's a blur. It couldn't be too bad if Steve Guttenberg and Bobcat Goldthwait were in it.
One of the better entries as all walks of life are allowed to become cops with some funny results.
Former gang Bobcat Goldthwaite and nerd Tim Kazurinsky are so hilarious in the Police Academy.
Steve and co rehash the same old jokes yet again in an utterly inane and pointless sequel to an inane and pointless original.
More of same slap-shtick w/familiar cast of goofballs.
You can argue quality, you can argue taste, but you can't argue the phenomenal success of these cheaply made joke-fests. Full Review
Deadly-dull pacing and overuse of old gags ruin Police Academy 3, the first of the franchise to come anywhere near 'enjoyable.'
The franchise hasn't changed, but that means the humor is still amiably the same, too.
