Not the Greatest Movie Ever, But Still Entertaining
24 May 2013
While Police Academy 6: City Under Siege is certainly no cinematic masterpiece, it is a very entertaining and funny film that gets a bad rap, probably in part to how bad the previous and following films in the series were. Police Academy 6 is actually, in my opinion, the best of the sequels and is rather funny if you give it a chance.

The main characters from the previous film are all here, with Michael Winslow (as Jones), Bubba Smith (as Hightower), David Graf (as Tackleberry), and G.W. Bailey (as Harris) as the main characters, with the other half dozen good supporting actors. The main story, about a gang rampaging a certain part of town, is not exactly rocket science but it also isn't the dumbest, either. The film is aimed at a younger audience, but adults should enjoy the numerous jokes, especially Harris' overbearing scenes, Jones' sound effects, and Tackleberry's use of firearms and his obvious joy in driving Bigfoot during the awesome chase scene.

While maybe the not greatest comedy, if you are looking for some simple fun, I'd say Police Academy 6 is a very good and entertaining film. Give it a chance and you shouldn't be disappointed.
