Crocodile Dundee Review
The worldwide hit Crocodile Dundee made Australian Paul_Hogan a household name in the U.S. and introduced "G'Day, Mate" to the popular vernacular. The basis for the film is simple and relatively charming: girl brings tough country guy to the big city and he falls in love with her. It's King_Kong all over again; or more specifically, an idea loosely stolen from one of the Johnny_Weissmuller Tarzan movies, Tarzan's_New_York_Adventure. Unfortunately, the romantic angle in Dundee is undermined by the lack of chemistry between Hogan and co-star Linda_Kozlowski, whose performance is generally poor. What remains is a comedy about an out-of-towner winning over the loonies of New York City, and cartoonish as it may be, the film is carried by Hogan's charisma. He's bemused, good-natured, and darn-near irresistible. This is the role that Hogan was born to do, and it's hard to imagine him ever finding a more suitable part. Brendon Hanley, Rovi
