This Shouldn't ruin the film for you. I've never been good with summaries., 10 April 2004

This may not have been THE best of the Police Academy film series, but it also wasn't the worst. As with most comedy film series, old and new elements(and characters) are mixed together to bring you a new chapter to the continuing story. Some of the "gags" may be similar, but unless you're going to sit down and watch all seven of the films back-to-back-to-back-to-back.., you may not notice. The Academy Officers go down to Florida to honor Commodant Eric Lassard (George Gaynes). Eric's nephew joins in as the new male lead, taking over for Steve Guttenberg's 'Carey MaHony' character. Comedy insues along with a chase, or two. It's great when a sequel comes along, and most (if not all) of the original cast shows up, too! In this case, most do! :)
