“Proctor, I don’t see a salad bar.” We’ve enlisted in the ker-raziest cop department in Metro City, and are skating through the streets with Tony Hawk and David Spade for the 1987 madcap fourquel Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol.
As the surprise comedy hit of 1984, the original Police Academy quickly spawned an annual franchise, with canny producer Paul Maslansky rushing budget-conscious, increasingly family-friendly fare out to the market for the remainder of the decade (and one ill-advised 1990s entry). Film-picker Matt has chosen this pivotal middle entry as his quintessential crystallisation of the oft-maligned series, using this final picture in the Carey Mahoney saga as a lens through which to examine the whole run. We discuss its influences, its relationship to the comedy movie landscape at the time, and its latter-day reputation as a critical punching bag that nevertheless persists as a nostalgic guilty pleasure for a very specific generation of fans.
Why not throw on your icky blue uniform, become one with the gun, mace your armpits, and learn the correct way to eat a donut with Gali, Devlin, Matt, Patrick, Mahoney, Jones, Tackleberry, Hightower, Zed, Sweetchuck, Hooks, Callahan, and dozy old Commandant Lassard as we fire up the proprietary rap theme and hand-dance in our patrol car on our way to a climactic air show spectacular. Jerk!
