Leave your thoughts about Police Academy 2: Their First Assignment.
| EmpireIan NathanIt’s juvenilia, straight-up goofballing, but there is a tittering innocence at work here. |
| The New York TimesJanet MaslinFollow-up features much of the original’s cast but none of its key behind-the-scenes creative talent, save producer Paul Maslansky. Only actor to get any mileage out of this one is series newcomer Art Metrano, as an ambitious lieutenant bent upon taking over the department. |
| Chicago TribuneSid SmithToning down the smut for a PG-rating, and bringing in veteran comedy director Paris, who made his feature debut with 1968's Jerry Lewis vehicle Don't Raise the Bridge, Lower the River, ensured slightly more in the way of comic consistency for this modest sequel. |
| Los Angeles TimesKevin ThomasNot since The Heretic tried to follow up The Exorcist has there been so dismal a sequel as Police Academy 2: Their First Assignment. |
| Washington PostPaul AttanasioThey're not movies so much as variety shows featuring talented young comics. |
