More of the same but more adventurous and not trying "too" hard like some people think.

Here is where the series really took a turn for the worse. The group heads to Miami Beach to help honour Commandant Lassard. Guttenberg wisely took a pass and his replacement Nick is not a value add amid mostly poor slapstick humour. Proctor saves this one from an even lower rating.

I really like this movie and the standards it introduces to our society. Police Academy 5 changed MY LIFE.

I have love for the franchise, not because any of the films are at all that good, but more so because everything this franchise represents I love. There is no Guttenberg in this film and that's a real shame, instead we get to see some of the rest of the Academy get more time in the sun. Gaynes and Bailey are really what makes this series tick and even though its horribly tired, they do put in some pretty decent comedic performances.

Hands down the best Police Academy movie. Just enough zany cop humor and a rounded cast of veterans from the series a new introductions.

Generic raunchy comedy. not for kids. Be wary of sequals where the original star isn't in it. I.E. Steve Geutenburg passed on this one

*PS: The bad guys in the movie look more like the 3 stooges.
It is very different from the last movies. They are not in a mission anymore, it's more like a summer vacation. Replacing Steve Guttenberg, who was the funniest guy in the series, for Matt McCoy was huge mistake. In the end you can see some ridiculous action scenes and the movie lacks on humor.

The Gute leaves the reigns of the franchise to new comer Matt McCoy and the Police Academy franchise doesn't suffer for it; the graduates are still up to their typical antics with Jones kung fu dubbing his way into the hearts of Miami diamond thieves, Tackleberry fending off great whites with his magnum, and Captain Harris douching his way into the lamest academy pranks. Assignment Miami Beach is a pure dumb goof but if you've made it this far into the franchise than you're all in, plus who doesn't love a jet black Rene Abuberjonis running afoul of George Gaynes' Lassard clumsy buffoonery? VF.

Now this is just milking a franchise.

Another craptacular Police Academy movie. This time no Mahoney. If the Gutt passes on it you know it ain't a quality flick!

Hold everything! The cadets are dropping in on Miami Beach for an all new adventure.

I would have enjoyed it perhaps slightly if some of the previous cast had returned.

Not really interesting. The gags against Proctor and Harris weren't that funny and the rest of the stuff was below the earlier movies. No Guttenberg this time and the replacement didn't have the same charisma. Sadly a big disappointment.
