*Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol* is a 1987 comedy film directed by Jim Drake and the fourth installment in the popular *Police Academy* series.

The film features a mix of familiar characters, including Steve Guttenberg as Officer Mahoney, Michael Winslow as Larvelle Jones, and G.W. Bailey as Captain Harris, alongside new recruits like the energetic and eccentric citizens joining the force. The movie is known for its slapstick humor, zany antics, and the series' signature blend of comedy and camaraderie, though it also marked the beginning of a decline in critical reception compared to the earlier entries.
