Hightower. Mahoney. Tackleberry. Those were just some of the new recruits of the 1984 megahit, Policy Academy. The first installment of the seven-film franchise delivered raunchy humor, social satire, and slapstick comedy. Steve Guttenberg, Kim Catrall, and team had audiences rolling in the aisles but had most critics rolling their eyes. But now, does its humor suffer from arrested development? Does its sexism, racism, and homophobia get an 80s "get out of jail free" card, or does it warrant a penalty? The Old Roommates give up the right to remain silent and revisit it all through a middle-aged lens. Listen to this.
