Paul Hogan, Linda Kozlowski

How long has it been since Paul Hogan's grizzled but charming alter ego appeared in a new movie? Well, long enough for the character, Crocodile Dundee, and his American companion, Sue Charleton (Hogan...( read more  read more... )'s real-life wife, Linda Kozlowski), to have raised a 9-year-old son, Mikey (Serge Cockburn), in the rough-and-tumble Australian outback that Dundee calls home. As with its two predecessors, however, Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles is no domestic comedy but a fish-out-of-water comic adventure, this time finding Dundee and his mate Jacko (Alec Wilson) relocated in balmy Southern California to help journalist Sue investigate a crooked studio executive. The jokes are predictable (L.A. traffic, Hollywood phonies, yoga) but fun, anyway, and there are some celebrity cameos to spice things up. Australian director Simon Wincer, who worked with Hogan on Lightning Jack, is very effective at keeping this light material briskly moving along even if he can't make it any more memorable than it has a right to be. All in all, this is a pleasant but forgettable experience, a far cry from the Capra-esque leanings of Hogan's first screen outing as Crocodile Dundee. --Tom Keogh

    Pretty good movies.

    Certainly not in the same league as the others and Paul Hogan 'surgery', just takes away all the character of the rough diamond Mickey Dundee we all knew and loved.

    The third film in the Crocodile Dundee series. Dundee and Sue live in Australia with their son. Sue is offered a job in Los Angeles to help one of her father's papers. So the family move to Los Angeles and get into a adventure. Though this film is not nearly as good as the first...( read more) two Crocodile Dundee films it still has it's moments. The movie is more family friendly for adults and kids to enjoy. Paul Hogan is still great as Dundee. He still brings that nice mix of a tough guy with humour to Dundee. The story is kind of weak but was nice to see them bring Dundee back for one more adventure. Worth a watch if you enjoyed the other Crocodile Dundee movies.

    It was'nt shocking, just a very lazy effort. It would have been funnier if they had got Steve Irwin to play Croc Dundee.
  • August 13, 2009
    Never heard of this one, but I'll bet I can tell you the plot

    I think we should have stopped at the second Dundee, this was prety bad and if it hadnt been for the marvellousness of the first two, this would have ruined the series. If you loved the first two, dont get this.
