Editorial Review:
This 1986 comedy out of Australia is so old-fashioned in its romantic charm that one can't help but wonder what it would have looked like with Clark Gable and Carole Lombard in the leads. On the other hand, it's hard to imagine anyone besides Paul Hogan as the title character, a laid-back Aussie tracker who shows an American reporter (Linda Kozlowski) around bush country, then accompanies her to New York City. Sure, Hollywood has done the fish-out-of-water scenario to death in the last 20 years, and while this film has sufficient sport with the gimmick, it is largely driven by the principal characters and their developing love affair. Hogan cowrote the script and director Peter Faiman evokes the goofy, enchanted air of screwball comedies. The climactic scene, set in a subway station with scores of bystanders witnessing a conversation about relationship commitment, feels like vintage Capra. --Tom Keogh

Rating:  - Likable Paul Hogan and lovely Linda Kozlowski in a FUN adventure
Linda Kozlowski plays a reporter who goes to the Australian Outback to do a story on Mick "Crocodile" Dundee, Played by Paul Hogan. She gets a good taste of Dundee's simple Tarzan-like life in the wilderness and decides to invite him to New York City. Dundee is a fish-out-of-water in the big city, of course, but it doesn't take him long to adapt, and the New Yorkers love him. Linda and Dundee naturally start to fall in love despite the fact that she has an arrogant fiance.

I remember watching this movie when it can out in 1986 & loving it! I was so happy when it was released on DVD in 2001. It is such a funny, adventurous & feel good movie. Paul Hogan is so FUNNY & his character is so endearing! You will laugh at his innocence as he leaves the Outback to explore the Big Apple! I L-o-v-e this movie as well as the next 2 installments of Dundee.
Rating: - Good day mate!
Paul Hogan aka Crocodile Dundee enchants the audience with his rugged good lucks and animalistic characteristics- This is the original Croc movie or Crocodile Dundee I where a reporter from New York comes to Australia to write an article on the Outback but ends up getting much more! The infamous seen where the croc jumps out of the swamp and bites her water bottle while Mic Dundee jumps in and saves the day by knifing him between the eyes!

Rating: - Time For A Reappraisal?
This film is not considered 'cool' these days due mainly, I think, to lazy TV schedulers who will run a butchered version of the film on Sunday afternoons because it's a 'good family film'. I've caught this film on TV about four times and on each occasion it was in a badly cut version but this DVD seems, so far as I can tell, to be complete. The film deserves to be put alongside the best comedies of any era and should be regarded as one of the prime examples of the form(I would compare it to Capra ... Read More
Rating:  - Really good if you are 7 years old and think an Aussie accent is cool
Dumb girl is saved from big ol crocodile by wise outback guy who stabs it with big ol knife instead of just leaving it alone. Because girls of course could never survive in the outback. Natives with innate wisdom.
Sheech.
Every cliché in the book. Can't believe any adults swallow this one. It's going to be below the threshold for smart kids, let alone adults.
