Police Academy 3: Back in Training (1986)

Written by r96sk on March 25, 2025

'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.

I do enjoy seeing the cast remain, I'm a fan of characters remaining across franchises without any recasts etc. So far, we've had basically all the people involved return. It's cool to see, at least for me; I like seeing a character's trajectory, even if the films aren't the best (like here).

It is neat to see the likes of Steve Guttenberg, Bubba Smith, Michael Winslow and Marion Ramsey again. Bobcat Goldthwait is even minorly watchable, his character should be irritating but somehow it almost works. Overall, there's a noticeable camaraderie between the main cast.
