Police Academy 3: Back in Training
Directed by Jerry Paris
When police funding is cut, the Governor announces he must close one of the academies. To make it fair, the two police academies must compete against each other to stay in operation. Mauser persuades two officers in Lassard's academy to better his odds, but things don't quite turn out as expected... From TMDB

Before streaming, when we only had a VHS collection to rely on, we watched *EVERY* movie a dozen times. THERE WERE NO OTHER MOVIES AVAILABLE. Christ, I've seen Police Academy 3 more than six times.

Latte is fragile and has me worried sick. Some days I handle that stress better than others. Bo has an infected tooth, hoping antibiotics are helping.

Die hard fans of these films will probably get a kick out of this one as well but I've always found #PoliceAcademy3BackInTraining to be the point at which the series begins its decline. 📽️🎞️
negative · AI labelView post →But seriously, Police Academy 3 and onwards toned down the offensiveness a LOT as the movies hit the mainstream. I think that was also around the time the cartoon series aired, so they needed to keep it PG. For the kids. I mean, it could be funny to have Vincent putting on the first movie and

positive · AI labelView post →'Police Academy 3: Back in Training' continues where the previous films left off, in that I don't hold any major pluses but, to be honest, they do make for easy viewing; to the point that I don't dislike watching them. I may feel differently after watching all seven, granted.

It's cool to see, at least for me; I like seeing a…
