AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks
Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
Uriah43 Having returned to Australia, "Michael 'Crocodile' Dundee" (Steve Hogan) and his girlfriend "Sue Charlton" (Linda Kozlowski) have set up residence in Walkabout Creek and are contentedly raising their son "Mikey" (Serge Cockburn). But that all changes when Sue gets a call from her father who tells her that he needs her to fill in for the newspaper bureau chief in Los Angeles who has recently died under mysterious circumstances. Although the assignment is only temporary both Crocodile Dundee and Mikey accompany her. However, as soon as they arrive their ability to adapt to their new environment is immediately put to the test. So much so that they arrange to have a good friend from Australia by the name of "Jacko" (Alec Wilson) come to Los Angeles to help out. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this was a mediocre sequel which doesn't quite measure up to the previous two films in the series simply because it doesn't really add anything new. Even so, I still got some measure of enjoyment out of it and for that reason I have rated it accordingly. Average.
Fluke_Skywalker Crocodile Dundee's third go 'round is actually a bit more generically entertaining than the somewhat leaden 'Crocodile Dundee II'. Here they dust off the fish out of water shtick again, substituting L.A. stereotypes for New York ones, but that kinda makes it feel freshish. Especially if you decide to watch the three films over consecutive days for some sad, completionist reason.They keep the Croc as a man of action thing from part II, but instead of drug dealers, he's facing off against art thieves. On paper that's a major downgrade, but the tone here is even more overtly family friendly than the moderately softened second film, and it actually almost kinda sorta works in fits and starts.This might be the most unnecessary sequel ever, but it's far from the worst.
bigverybadtom The story: Dundee and Kozlowski have been together and have had a son, though they didn't marry (this is pointed out in the movie). Then Kozlowski is contacted by her newspaper publisher father to go to Los Angeles to work there, and the others come along. Once there, Dundee is a fish out of water again-which is much less credible after 13 years of having lived with a native New Yorker. Rehash many of the jokes from the prior movies, add a thin plot of their getting involved with a movie studio which is involved in drug smuggling, and there you have it.Overlong, slow, and dull. Even if the original charmed you, this movie will not. Don't expect a "Crocodile Dundee Four"; Paul Hogan was age 62 when he made this one!
lagudafuad This new addition to the Crocodile Dundee franchise is like one of the worst thing that ever happened in 2001, at the end of the film you feel like Paul Hogan should pay you back for seeing this. The movie from the set go lacks vision, entertainment and if it were a direct to DVD movie it would have made more sense.There was definitely no reason for them to have made this movie, but they did anyway and put it out there for us to see and dislike. This movie was so bad that I couldn't believe that it left the storyboard. Dundee (Paul Hogan) and Sue (Linda Kozlowski) are now together for like 15 years and they have a son named Michael after his father.While living in Australia Sue got a call from her father that she should come and help hold down his office (a newspaper company) in Los Angeles while he attends to other matters. Sue (after Dundee said that he and Michael their son will go along) accepted the offer and moved with her family to Los Angeles, there both father and son were kind of out of it and made the news once for just not getting how things work in America.The antagonist in this one is a phony movie production company, and in this flick we get to see Dundee go undercover. A side story to the whole movie plot has both Dundee and Sue not being married for the whole 15 years they have been together with Sue wanting it but not pushing it and Dundee just not manning up to do the right thing.Trust me after you have read this review just run away from this flick, it is not worth the one hour thirty minutes I put into it. In this movie Hogan is all old, so is Sue and the whole cute lovable couple is not so cute anymore then there are scenes were we see some ladies go gaga for Dundee, I'm no woman but that guy looked old and out of it, so I didn't see the attraction.I felt the makers wanted to see if they could still make some more money off the franchise but this $21 million production only made 39 million in the box office, maybe the DVD sales helped later on, that I don't know but one thing I'm glad for is that, I don't think there will be a Crocodile Dundee IV.www.lagsreviews.com
