The CinePearl Take
Police Academy is a 1980s English film that blends comedy and crime — expect laughs built on situation and character and the pull of crime and its consequences. Hugh Wilson directs and the script comes from Neal Israel. With 9 credited cast members, it has a wide, ensemble feel. Made in United States, it is a natural pick for anyone exploring English-language films. Released in 1984, it has had time to build an audience and word of mouth. At 96 minutes, it is a comfortable evening's watch.
