Rating: Summary: definate improvement over Police Academy 5 Review: Even though I did not like Police Academy 5, I decided to give this one a chance and I'm glad I did. Sure, Police Academy 6 doesn't have Steve Guttenburg in it but its still a good movie. G.W. Bailey gives a better performance as Captain Harris than he did in the last movie. Also, the plot is more interesting unlike the last movie. If you are a fan of the Police Academy series, you might want to include this one in your collection. In my opinion, Police Academy 6 should have ended the series. Word of caution; don't bother viewing Police Academy: Mission Moscow.
Rating: Summary: Better than Police Academy 5........but Review: not that much better and certianly not in the same class as 1-4. It was nice to see Fackler come back. I guess when his wife threw him from his car in PA 3, it really disabled him for a few years. I had to laugh at a few of Tackleberry's parts, especially the line "TAKE THE BUS!" when he has the hand grenade. The battle between the cops and villians at the end seemed to last forever and became more boring. Don't bother watching this, unless you could put up with number 5. Just stick to watching 1-4.
Rating: Summary: The best Police Academy movie of the 7 Review: Police Academy 6 City Under Seige is by far the best movie of all time!!! It totally makes Police Academy 5, which was previously my favorite movie, seem like Gigli. Marion Ramesy preformance was outstanding as Sgt. Laverne Hooks, her best role yet. And who could forget the classic memorable acting skills as Darryl Honriques who played the man in a hurry. His talent showed that no other actor could pull out such an outstanding preformance. You could tell by watching his acting skills that he was in a hurry. No doubt about it. And who could forget Allison Mack who played the little girl. In past movies she played characters such as little crying child or girl with ice cream cone. This was her major breakthru preformance as the little girl. She has now gone onto play in movies with such roles as teen in classroom and girl with braces. And Gerry Lack who played an unforgetable role as an old lady. The makeup job done to transform this 56 year old woman into a 58 year old woman was supurbub. Lots of time, money, and effort was put into perfecting this transformation. It was said in a rumor that half of the budget of the film was part of her makeup job. And she pulled of the role perfectly. Most older actors have a problem of acting too young for their roles. Like Wilfrid Brimley in Cocoon or Scatman Crothers in Twilight Zone the Movie. But not Gerry Lack, she pulled off the role of being old perfectly. Michael Winslow is also one of the coolest actors of all time. Like that time in Police Acedemy 1 where he makes a siren noise and nobody has any idea it was him or that time in Police Academy 2 where he makes a different siren noise, which sounds similar to the first siren noise but has an extra "E-rahh" at the end instead of "E-rahh, E-rahh". Don't get me started on that siren sound from Police Academy 3, that one was a classic. I am also thinking of starting my own Police Academy fan web site where people from all over the world can send pictures of their favorite characters. Also I will be starting a petition to have an 8th Police Academy movie made. Yes, an 8th movie. It will be made even if it means me directing it. I can not wait to get this movie on DVD watch it with my surround sound. Right now I only own this movie on Beta and VHS, so I am missing out on the DVD quality sounds of the police cars driving, the time where they shoot the guns, and Michael Winslow. And at a price of only $12.73, you can't go wrong. I would truthfully spend anywhere from $25-$35 for this movie. I am such a big fan of the series that I even have the rare one and only copy of Police Academy 1 signed by Bob Guttenburg which says is the cousin of Steve Guttenburg. I had even spent $128.13 on E-Bay to recieve this one and only copy which is sought after by many collectors. And for those of you that think Ski Patrol or Meatball IV is the best movie of all time, you're wrong. What are you thinking its obviouly POLICE ACADEMY 6: CITY UNDER SEIGE!!!

Rating: Summary: AN IMPROVEMENT OVER 5, BUT THAT'S NOT SAYING MUCH Review: THE COPS COME BACK TO BATTLE ANOTHER CRIMINAL. A BIG STEP UP FROM THE LAST INSTALLMENT, BUT THAT'S NOT SAYING MUCH. STILL MORE OF THE SAME OLD TIRED JOKES. LET'S FACE IT, WITHOUT STEVE GUTTENBERG, THE ''POLICE ACADEMY'' SERIES WILL NEVER BE THE SAME.
Rating: Summary: One of the worst movies I've seen... Review: This film is devoid of any humor what-so-ever. It tries to think of something funny to do, but leaves the viewer bored and wishing something else were on. I happened upon this movie on HBO one day and didn't laugh once. It's simply one of the worst comedies ever created. Never funny, ...
Rating: Summary: Boring. Review: This is a very boring movie to watch,and to sit through.The script is terrible,and the cast does terrible jobs at playing their roles.Do not,and I repeat do not watch this [movie],or buy it.
Rating: Summary: "Go ahead, make my christmas." Review: This is basically the same cast line up as 1988's Police Academy 5 - Assignment: Miami Beach except Officer "House" Conklin isn't here and accident causing Sgt. Fackler makes his return with a bang...literally. The rest of the classic gang (minus Mahoney, of course) are all here: Lassard, Hightower, Hooks, Callahan, Motormouth Jones, and of course Tackleberry! This is the one where they go after the 3 goofy robbers and their "mastermind". I think the only people who give Police Academy 6 bad reviews just don't like these movies because this one is filled with memorable moments. In defense of how funny the movie is and in case you forgot, here is a list of many moments of hilarity that take place in City Under Siege:1. Tackleberry shoots the milk carton in his Dad's hand 2. Hooks yells at the uppity guy after giving him all those citations and having his car towed 3. Callahan working out! 4. Fackler knocks a lit cigar into a box of fireworks 5. Hightower slams his hand down on a table sending Tackleberry's grenade onto Capt. Harris' car 6. Hooks & Hightower rap 7. Jones does Jimi Hendrix, Bruce Lee, & the Terminator Let's not forget those classic Harris & Proctor moments: 1. Proctor sings Christmas songs & Harris misses the robbery 2. Harris gets glued to his chair 3. Harris & Proctor go undercover as window washers 4. Harris & Proctor go undercover as armored car security 5. Harris and the exploding dye pack The list goes on! What more evidence do you need? These movies are great. Very glad to see they're all making it to DVD finally. A 7 pack set will be available...I highly recommend picking one up!
