Combat Academy is a 1986 comedy film by the creator of Police Academy, Neal Israel. Best friends Max Mendelsson and Perry Barnett are sent to military school after one prank too many. Max, the real troublemaker and loudmouth , begins plotting ways to get out while Perry realizes that it's time for him to straighten up. Trouble begins when Russian cadets visit the school and begin wargames that the school isn't ready for. The movie was filmed at an actual military school, Kemper Military School and College, in 1985. Actual students and instructors served as extras and consultants during the... shooting of the production. Despite starring several popular actors such as Richard Moll, George Clooney and Jamie Farr, the film was both a commercial and critical failure. It was released on video cassette in the United States, and in the United Kingdom.
