1.0 out of 5 stars
a final sequel that shouldn't have been made,
By Movie Dude (Georgia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Police Academy 7 - Mission to Moscow [VHS] (VHS Tape)
After the disappointment of Police Academy 5 and the improvement of Police Academy 6, you would think this final sequel would have been a nice finish to the series. Wrong! Police Academy: Mission to Moscow is the worst of the films. It even makes Police Academy 5 look somewhat good. Most of the actors from the previous Police Academy movies have left the series by now and with good reason. The plot is no good and not even Captain Harris (G.W. Bailey) could have saved the loss of humor in this movie. If you are a person who has never seen any of the Police Academy sequels or have not gotten past #4, do yourself a favor by skipping #5, watch #6, and avoid this final sequel at all cost! To sum up this review, only watch Police Academy 1,2,3,4, and 6.

What the heck happened!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Police Academy 7 - Mission to Moscow [VHS] (VHS Tape)
The 6th one was better than this. Read the other review it says the same thing I want to say. Rent 1,2,3,4,5, not 6 and certainly not 7.

Best of the Series!,
This review is from: Police Academy - Mission to Moscow (DVD)
Tagline: Kicking buttski. Making you laughski. The Academy is backski!
If you haven't seen this movie, you really should do yourself and your loved ones a favor and check it out. I know a lot of people think the Police Academy series wasn't too great after the first one, but they are dead, dead wrong. First of all, the loss of Steve Guttenberg as Mahoney is no great one, as his character was silly and unbelievable. This film puts our favorite recruits in Moscow (which is near Russia), and has a delightful fish-out-of-water premise. Now, for those that haven't seen the prequels, you should know that the Police Academy men and women are a ragtag group of ne'erdowells who use plain moxy and hijinks to solve crimes. In many ways it's similar to the Law and Order TV show, but much much funnier. You will be amazed at all the silly sound effects that the sound effect policeman makes, and you will be charmed by the general buffoonery that the rest of the gang makes as they try policing Moscow. It may be out of their jurisdiction...but this movie proves that there is no jurisdiction for funny. On a more serious note, this movie came out at the height of what is known as "the Red Scare" in America, and instead of dealing with the tensions between two world superpowers with heavyhanded, treacly drama like Warren Beatty's ultra-conservative "Reds," Police Academy's Mission to Moscow makes excellent socio-political commentary under the guise of a lighthearded romp, and it pays off in spadeskis! (If you want to turn American words into Russian words, the best way is to add "ski" to the end of them. Ditto for Polish things). This movie is a treat for almost all of your senses!!!
