 That is not a knife... this is a knife... April 14, 2007
There seems to be a recipe for making great movies, and this film has all the ingredients. Adventure, action, romance, and great comedy.
A modern day Tarzan, Crocodile Dundee is simply one of those movies we must see. Paul Hogan is superb as he plays the audacious and brave hero out in the wilderness of Australia. Linda Kozlowski is the reporter who sets out to surface the story of man who was attacked by a crocodile and survived to tell the story.
Mick, as he is known by his friends... and he has many... has never set out foot from his environment. Invited by the reporter, he travels to New York City, where great adventure ensues.
New Yorkers are not ready for someone like Crocodile Dundee, but soon, they find themselves admiring and becoming friends with this simply, kind, respectful, and courageous visitor.
The end of the movie is one of the best scenes, capturing great love, and how, total strangers can become instrumental in bringing a relationship to its climax.
Don't miss this movie and you will find yourself saying... "That is not a knife... this is a knife!"

This had more dialog and alittle more skin than I remember, but the humor and storyline are just as much fun as when it first came out!

Took me a while to get around to watching "Crocodile Dundee". Only just did this year, which I feel a bit funny about, being Australian. I'd kind of seen bits of it on the TV and stuff, but I wouldn't say that I'd grown up with it or anything. Seeing it, I think it's not too bad. Strange sort of Australia though. There are some parts that are sort of authentic and some parts that are cartoonish and stereotyped, yet its all blended so well that if you weren't Australian you wouldn't know one from the other. It's funny that way. Bit crude in places though, bit blunt I guess....
Mick Dundee (comedian Paul Hogan) is a bit of a character in his hometown in the outback. Though it's illegal to go around killing crocodiles, he has had a tangle or two with the when he's been out walkabout. A journalist from America goes to investigate, and becomes quite interested in him. Perhaps she'll take him home to New York, see what he thinks of her hometown...
It's worth a look for anyone who's interested, I think.

fun, a laugh at the iconic outback bloke. well acted some excellent characters, including the man himself. hogan is somewhat "stagey"and over the top in his acting which just happens to be right for his part.
Heck, it's just fun, fun, fun from opening to close... October 5, 2006

Although this movie has the feel of "low-budget" and a cast of unknowns at the time, it just turned out to be so enjoyable that I can't downgrade it. It is impossible to dislike Paul Hogan, and while Linda, his co-star, only grows on you slowly as an actress, by the end she is effective as well. The first sequel was tolerable, the second was excreable, but the original holds up even over many years. The film makes you want to be a macho man like Mick Dundee, and to win a woman like Linda. I saw it once on the big screen, but every time it shows up on television I watch between 10 and 30 minutes of it, just to have a laugh or smile.
