Vice Academy Part 6 (1998) User Reviews

The Sixth and Last Film of the Series

[Uriah43 · 4/10 · 10 June 2016]

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.

Perhaps the best of the "Vice Academy" films....

....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.

Sad to see the end

I don't know what I'm more upset about: the fact that I have watched six Vice Academy movies or that they never made the seventh film.

Candy (Elizabeth Kaitan), Traci (Raelyn Saalman), the commissioner (John Henry Richardson), Devonshire (Jayne Hamil) and Irwin (Chad Gabbert) are all back, while Holly Lauren is playing a new character named Monique McClure, soap star Tamara Clatterbuck shows up and Nikki Fritz is in this as a character named Savvy. And yes, Ginger Lynn shows up as Holly. She really should have had a spin-off.

Rick Sloane made all six of these. This time, the plot has masked bikini bandits who get our heroines put in jail, because, well, the universe of these movies makes no sense. But who cares, right? I mean, let's face it. The world kind of is in a horrible place right now and it's really simple for me to wallow in depression and wondering when people will start being decent to one another. So if I decide to watch all the Vice Academy movies in one day - perhaps more than once - and yell the lines out at the screen like a moron, aren't I engaging in a form of self-care?

People make fun of how bad the Police Academy movies are. Let me tell you, these movies make Mahoney and company look like the cast of an Altman movie by comparison. But I could care less. The world is poorer for the fact that USA Up All Night is no longer on the air, playing movies like this that are complete - and wonderful - wastes of time.

Another cheesy sequel

[Leofwine_draca · 3/10 · 23 October 2018]

VICE ACADEMY 6 is yet another in the endlessly cheap and derivative series. The stars return from the last time, once more as undercover vice cops battling low rent criminal types. The emphasis is very much on the sex lives of the main characters so there's a lot of stripping off and random sex scenes which are anything but sensual. The comedy is decidedly lowbrow and overall this is quite an embarrassing watch; it's hard to imagine much worse or why they continued churning these out.

dumb dumb dumb

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

A perfectly stupid final installment in the enjoyably idiotic series

[Woodyanders · 8/10 · 24 August 2008]

Lovable airhead Candy (the adorably daffy Elizabeth Kaitan) and her brassy rival Traci (the delightfully sassy Raelyn Saalman) run afoul of a gang of sexy, but nefarious bikini-clad bank-robbing strippers. Ramrod Internal Affairs detective Hank Grisham (a perfectly jerky Brad Parker) wrongly assumes that Candy was an accomplice to the robbery and sends her to jail. Meanwhile, the ever-frustrated Miss Devonshire (essayed with trademark sidesplitting slow-burn comic aplomb by Jayne Hamil) is fuming over the fact that the pompous buffoon commissioner (Jay Richardson in excellent blustery form) has forgotten their first wedding anniversary. Writer/director Rick Sloane works his customary engagingly witless no-brainer cinematic magic with a steady succession of amusingly lowbrow jokes on such utterly uproarious topics as strippers, women beating up men, tabloid TV shows, annoyingly perky bimbo cheerleaders, and phone sex hotlines. The lively and attractive cast have a ball with their broad roles: Kaitan and Saalman display an engagingly loosey-goosey chemistry as the fetching female leads, Honey Lauren is a tart treat as brash hooker Monique McClure, plus there are nice supporting turns by Chad Gabbert as the commissioner's nerdy son Irwin, Tamara Clatterbuck as yummy blonde Sophisticacia, Angela Castelli as scorching hot brunette Tease, Joanne Rubino as hardened felon Lactacia, Karen Knotts as chipper prison guard Mavis, and Mark Richardson as sleazy strip club owner Bojangles. Stephen Crawford's static cinematography is merely passable while both Alan DerMarderosian's zany score and Marky Desade's gnarly-thrashin' theme song "Pistol Whipped" both hit the funky spot. The bank robbery sequence is hilariously horrendous; the madcap ending is positively gut-busting as well. As an added bonus, both Kaitan and Castelli bare their beautiful breasts. A total dippy hoot.
