Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol

Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol (1987) is the comedy sequel you can watch online on iFILM. Commandant Lassard rolls out a bright idea — train ordinary citizens to back up the cops — and hands the job to the same goofballs who barely graduated themselves.

Mahoney, the towering Hightower, sound-effects wizard Jones and the rest swap their badges for clipboards and try to whip a ragtag crowd of volunteers into shape. Skateboarders, retirees and one very loud recruit turn every drill into chaos. Captain Harris, naturally, schemes to sink the whole program and squeeze Lassard out. Keep an eye out for early bit parts from Sharon Stone and David Spade before either was a household name.

Warner's fourth go-round leans all the way into slapstick: hang gliders, a hot-air balloon, skateboard chases and Michael Winslow's one-man-band noises. It's loud, dumb and undemanding — exactly the low-effort watch some nights call for. Stream Citizens on Patrol (1987) online on iFILM.
