Editorial Review:
A new batch of civilian volunteers joins the new Citizens on Patrol program but Captain Harris is determined to see it fail. The "boys in blue" are back for the fourth installment in the immensely popular "Police Academy" series which has collectively earned over $238000000. This time our favorite crimebusters face yet another major challenge when they attempt to train a group of oddball civilians to help control community crime which leads to both disastrous and hilarious results.Running Time: 87 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY UPC: 085393184520

Rating:  - The last in a great tradition.
I am sad to see so many of the reviewers here are not even giving this movie or the other's in the series a fair chance. I'm not saying only fans should be allowed to review this series or anythign to that degree, but if you didn't watch the films in chronological order, then its sort of rough comparing them against one another. I grew up with these movie's when I was very young and I have nothing but fond memories of PA 1-4. PA 1 is and always will be the best in the series for its freshness. It ... Read More
Rating: - Working And Training, Training And Working
It was pretty obvious at Police Academy 3 that the series really had nowhere to go. Part 4 slams that point home rather well. There is absolutely nothing original here. Lassard has a new Citizens On Patrol program which allows normal citizens to do police work. Basically it's like being trained as a police officer but without a gun. It seems like a silly idea to me, and really isn't much different from the open door policy of the first film. However, the writers needed some excuse to get folks ... Read More
Rating: - Best In The Series...
This really was the best movie of the series, next to Police Academy 2:Citizens On Patrol. I think the transfer to dvd was pretty good on all of these movies, the only complaint I have is that 4 and 5 are Full Screen. Why couldn't they release it in Widescreen along with the rest of em?
Oh well. I give it a 4 out of 5. If it was in Widescreen I would give it a 5. I definitely recommend this if you love the comedies of the 80s.
Rating:  - This movie tried so hard to be funny, but it still failed at so many levels
I really enjoyed the Police Academy movies when they came out in the eighties. The cast was fantastic because everyone had their own unique personalities. But, I really think that they should have stopped making these sequels after Police Academy Three: Back in Training, because all the humor started to really be repetitive and boring. That's too bad too because this movie "Police Acamedy 4: Citizens on Patrol, really did gather together quite an impressive cast of stars. Most of the original ... Read More
Rating: - This had a lot of potential
Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol isn't a bad film; it's just uneven and underdeveloped. And even though none of the previous three films were masterpieces, exactly--although for my money, Police Academy 2 comes pretty close to that designation--Police Academy 4 is something of a letdown in context.
I just finished writing my review for Death Wish 3 (1985). In that review, I also referenced Aliens (1986). I mention this here because writer Gene Quintano and director Jim Drake take a similar ... Read More
