Vice Academy Part 6

....but that's NOT to be taken as a recommendation in any way! Of course if you're reading these lines you're probably familiar with at least some parts of this series, and you already know that it makes the "Police Academy" films look like the works of the Marx Brothers. When I say that "Part 6" is possibly the best in the series, it's mostly because a) the camera setups are a little less static and lazy than usual, and b) one of the "bikini bank robbers" does a KNOCKOUT of a striptease early on - certainly a better way to spend time than listening to Miss Devonshire's and the Commissioner's endlessly repetitive banter! Don't get me wrong, the film is still amateurish, stupid and largely unfunny, but the enthusiastic cast tries and ultimately manages to make this as painless as possible. *1/2 out of 4.

After winning the lottery "Mrs. Devonshire" (Jayne Hamil) and her husband "the Commissioner" (Jay Richardson) entrust their money to their Vice Academy subordinates, "Candy" (Elizabeth Kaitan) and "Traci" (Raelyn Saalman) to deposit at the local bank. However, while they are waiting in line three female bandits appear and rob everybody. Needless to say this causes a stir within the police force and as a result a detective from Internal Affairs named "Hank Grisham" (Brad Blumenthal) is dispatched to investigate the case. Unfortunately, the lack of any solid clues leads him to believe that both Candy and Traci were more than innocent victims which further impedes bringing those responsible to justice. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this was the last film in a series that remained relatively consistent in its mediocrity. While certainly not award-winning comedy there were some elements of humor to be found in all of the preceding movies and this particular film is no exception. On the other hand, it would also be fair to say that the goofiness associated with these movies was beginning to get a bit old and because of that it was probably best to end the series at this point anyway. Lack of original humor aside, there were a couple of fairly attractive actresses like Nikki Fritz (as "Saavy"), Angela Castilli ("Tease") and Charlene Blaine ("Jenny Moans") which at least helped to brighten what amounted to a rather dull picture overall.

Its surprising how many hollywood writers think wearing sunglasses changes your appearance ... two of the female cops are wearing us air force female airman uniforms ... i should have turned it off at that point ... the rest just made me want to wretch ... there is no comedy anywhere
