Plot

edit

Police Academy trainer, Pandey, has been assigned to train some new recruits who are likely candidates for senior positions in India's Police Force. He does his best to train them, and get them assigned to their duties. What he is unable to teach them is about dishonest police officers, especially high-ranking ones; equally dishonest politicians, who have open links with gangsters and terrorists. These young men must now decide to carry on and compromise with this situation or become rebels and ultimately lose their jobs.

Critical response

edit

Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama gave the film 1 star out of 5, writing "None of the performances really stand out. Akshay goes through his role without much of an effort. His stunts are well executed of course. Raveena looks least interested in the goings-on. Amrish Puri gives a good account of himself. Raj Babbar tends to go over the top. Mohan Joshi is as usual. On the whole, POLICE FORCE has nothing forceful about it. Dull.[1] Shruti Bhasin of Planet Bollywood gave a negative review stating "Our recommendation is that you check out a better quality cop flick such as Khakee or Ab Tak Chappan.".[4]
