Critics Consensus

Infectiously easygoing charm and a leading man in the role he was born to play help Crocodile Dundee make the most of its familiar fish-out-of-water premise.

The vote for the movie is a vote for human beings in a screen age elsewhere engulfed by ducks, chimps, puppets or aliens, and a vote for the "special effects" of a credible hero an: large in a credibly unnerving environment.

[Crocodile Dundee] serves to demonstrate how enthusiastically the public will still respond to comedy of die most simple, good-natured, old-fashioned soft -- and to a star of human scale.

Crocodile Dundee demonstrates that Australians have a talent for comedy as well. It's a joyful movie, full of the wonder of vintage Frank Capra, with an ingenuous hero plunked down in the big, bad city.

… the ideal way to experience or even re-experience this Aussie classic, at least as far as entertainment value.

3.5/4

Sure, it's predictable. But this comedy about an Australian mountain man at sea in the wilds of New York is saved by the sure hand of director Peter Faiman... and, last but not least, the acting charms of Paul Hogan.

Crocodile Dundee ought to be acclaimed and celebrated far above many another movie. It ought to be reported as a feminist favourite. Yes, I am being serious. Who is the star of the show, so to speak? Michael J. "Crocodile" Dundee. But who is the person that makes everything happen? Who is the decision maker? Sue Charlton. Linda Kozlowski plays Sue, a New York journalist on assignment to Australia, who insists that she has to do one last feature before coming home: the Crocodile Dundee story. After her adventure with Dundee in the bush, she hits on him and then invites him back to the USA for a taste of urban jungle. He continues to impress her, stateside, and when she realises where her feelings are now leading her, she acts! She doesn't wait around. She takes charge! She goes after what she wants, and how! And why not, indeed! This is a marvellously funny romantic adventure movie. Kozlowski and Hogan really did fall in love and got married. The perfect ending.

A fun 1980's comedy with a no name acting genius named Paul Hogan playing Mick Crocodile Dundee!

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom

A few cute scenes but otherwise nothing but bad acting, lame script and nonsense cliches. It all rides on Paul Hogan’s easy like ability which apparently was enough in the 80s to gross $169 million.
