Loucademia de Mulheres 3

Holly and her sister face off against a hair-spraying robber in the second sequel in this worthless franchise (more worthless then the Leprechaun, Police Academy & Children of the corn franchises combined) Only the fact that all the girls who get topless have VERY ample chests keeps this from getting a deserved grade of F.

My Grade: D-

DVD Extras: :Director's commentary;Interviews ;filmographies for Jay Richardson and Julia Parton; and theatrical Trailer (which features nudity)

Eye Candy: Toni Alessandrini as a stripper, Elizabeth Kaitan as Candy, and Julia Parton as Melanie each unleash their own respective huge hooters

This movie essentially picks up where the previous film left off with "Holly Wells" (Ginger Lynn) still in prison working as an undercover vice cop. However there have been a couple of changes in the cast with Holly's nemesis, "Didi" (Linnea Quigley) being replaced by her sister "Candy" (Elizabeth Kaitan) while the character of "Miss Devonshire" is now being played by Jordana Kapra instead of Jayne Hamil. Two noticeable losses to be sure but I suppose the show must go on. Be that as it may, while Holly is trying to survive in prison, a new convict by the name of "Melanie" (Julia Parton) manages to escape and in the process is accidentally sprayed with a poisonous insecticide that causes her hair to turn green which subsequently results in her changing her name to "Melanthion". It's at this time that she begins a crime spree which only the characters from the Vice Academy can stop. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this film had two noticeable improvements from the last movie. For starters, I liked the increased focus on Miss Devonshire and I thought Jordana Kapra performed rather well in that role. The other factor that helped this movie was that it seemed a bit more polished than either of the two previous films. Additionally, Ginger Lynn looked quite nice in her bikini which surely didn't hurt this film in any way. Even so, while this certainly wasn't a great comedy by any means--it wasn't necessarily that bad either. That said, I rate it as about average.

If you have survived this far in the Vice Academy series the third entry is even worse than the first two. Linnea Quigley steps out (which may have been a good decision) and in steps Elizabeth Kaitan (who plays Quigley's sister Candy). I think Rick Sloane had read too many bad comics as here the main baddie Melanie (Julia Parton) breaks out of prison and after robbing a convenient store is sprayed with malathion which gives her green hair and a nastier attitude. Because, you know that is exactly what would happen. So, Candy and Holly Wells (Ginger Lynn Allen) must foil her crime wave. Also, third time Rick Sloan uses that same title song. My suggestion is to skip it and maybe watch what these movies spoof in POLICE ACADEMY. But, if you liked the first two...enjoy.

I'm a fan of the Vice Academy series. I own VHS copies of the first 3 (haven't been able to find the rest). This second sequel is funny and corny and campy and I love it.

Ginger Lynn Allen returns as Holly and one of my favorite b-movie starlets of the 80's Elizabeth Kaitan makes her first appearance in the series as the sister of Linnea Quigley's character. Also, Jay Richardson returns as the commissioner and as always, he's a hoot. Joining the cast are Darcy DeMoss (who for some reason is uncredited, even though she has a major role) and Julia Parton as the evil Malathion. And you will recognize actors from the previous entries in smaller roles.

There's the usual nudity and goofy dialog. If you like the first two, you will like this one too.

My only complaint is that 'Ms. Devonshire' is played by a different actress who sadly is not as good as Jayne Hamil was.

There is no way to put into words just how bad, how shapeless, paceless and laughless these "Vice Academy" films really are. You have to experience one for yourself. For the third time in a row, writer-director Rick Sloane does not show even an ounce of writing or directing talent. There is nothing here that a person above the age of 5 will believe or laugh at, yet the (very brief) nudity and other "plot" elements make the films unsuitable for kids. Which leads me to believe that they are really aimed at adults with the mental capabilities of 5-year-olds. Elizabeth Kaitan makes a more than welcome replacement for Linnea Quigley - she is winningly bubbly and cute, and her wonderful big smile is about the only thing that can make a viewer smile as well. But watching her and the other girls in this film is like watching a bunch of flowers in a desert covered with horse manure. (*)
