This seven-disc box set contains DVD releases for all of the Police Academy movies. Easily the best of these titles is the 20th anniversary edition of the original Police Academy. The disc offers a widescreen transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio. Many of the people involved in the film's production contribute to a commentary track that plays more like a class reunion than anything else, but a very warm and happy reunion nonetheless. Among the notable participants are stars Steve Guttenberg, Michael Winslow, and G.W. Bailey, as well as director Hugh Wilson. An extensive 30-minute documentary on the making of the film features interview footage with many people who could not take part in the commentary track. None of the other discs in the collection have extras as nice as those on the first film, but each does contain a short making-of featurette that was obviously created from the same materials and at the same time as the documentary on that disc for the original Police Academy. Each of these titles is available individually, but this set offers the most cost-effective way to acquire all seven titles.
