Meet the most unlikely recruits in law enforcement history! Hugh Wilson's hilarious 1984 comedy follows the misfit cadets of the Metropolitan Police Academy as they stumble, bumble, and somehow manage their way through basic training. When the mayor decides to remove discriminatory requirements for police academy admission, a motley crew of characters including the smooth-talking Mahoney (Steve Guttenberg), the sound effects master Jones (Michael Winslow), and the soft-spoken giant Hightower (Bubba Smith) enter the academy.
Under the stern command of Lieutenant Harris (G.W. Bailey) and the compassionate leadership of Commandant Lassard (George Gaynes), these unlikely heroes transform from civilian misfits into... well, slightly more competent misfits with badges. The film's slapstick humor, memorable characters, and quotable one-liners made it a surprise box office hit that spawned six sequels.
Michael Winslow's incredible vocal sound effects steal every scene, while the ensemble cast creates perfectly timed physical comedy that never gets old. From driving lessons gone wrong to graduation day disasters, every sequence builds toward the ultimate question: can these recruits actually protect and serve?
