Collection of all seven films from the highly successful comedy
series. In 'Police Academy' (1984), a new mayor offers a motley
crew of misfits the chance to oil the wheels of justice when he
lifts the restrictions that normally apply for recruiting new
members to the police force. The academy has the onerous task of
knocking them into law-enforcing shape. 'Police Academy 2 - Their
First Assignment' (1985) sees six of the inept recruits being
transferred to another precinct, where the lieutenant's promotion
depends on them flunking their training course. They also face
trouble on the streets in the form of a gang of sociopaths, led by
a psychobabbling lunatic. In 'Police Academy 3 - Back in Training'
(1986), the police budget is being cut, so one of the two training
academies faces the chop. It's up to the former graduates of
Commandant Lassard (George Gaynes)'s academy to save their old
training ground. In 'Police Academy 4 - Citizens On Patrol' (1987),
our rookie cops try to involve the local community in order to
prevent crime. However, their efforts are thwarted by Captain
Harris (G. W. Bailey) who is determined to scupper the plans of the
group which has caused him so much trouble in the past. 'Police
Academy 5 - Assignment Miami Beach' (1988) sees Commandant Lassard
finally reach retirement age. The whole gang fly down to Miami to
watch him receive an award. The only problem is that he's picked up
the wrong bag at the airport and is now in possession of some
stolen diamonds belonging to a bunch of crooks. In 'Police Academy
6 - City Under Siege' (1989), a criminal holds the city to ransom
by masterminding a spate of burglaries and fraud. To make matters
worse, the rookie cops have a plan to stop him. 'Police Academy 7 -
Mission to Moscow' (1994) sees the fabled police team helping out
in post-Soviet Union Russia. The Russians have a problem on their

control the entire world via an addictive computer game. The fate
of the planet lies in the police academy's hands, much to the
planet's concern...

he undertakes a mission to murder every first born son in Gotham -
a plan which will avenge his own beginnings. Meanwhile, he has two
adversaries to contend with: Catwoman (Michelle Pfeiffer), the
embittered ex-secretary of Max Shreck, and, of course, the old
caped crusader himself (Keaton). In 'Batman Forever' (1995), former
District Attorney Harvey Two-Face (Tommy Lee Jones) is terrorising
Gotham City, when a new villain appears on the scene - the Riddler
(Jim Carrey). Together they plot to discover Batman's (Val Kilmer)
identity, using a device which can probe the human mind. Meanwhile,
the caped crusader has been joined by Robin (Chris O'Donnell),
whose trapeze-artist family have recently been slain by Two-Face.
'Finally, in 'Batman and Robin' (1997), Batman (George Clooney) and
Robin (O'Donnell) have to stop the vengeful Mr Freeze (Arnold
Schwarzenegger) from taking over Gotham City by using his new ice
weapon. To make matters worse, the venomous Poison Ivy (Uma

undefeatable double-whammy of a team. Luckily for the caped
crusader and his rebellious ward, they can team up with a new tough
and courageous new partner - Batgirl (Alicia Silverstone).
