Summary
RATING: PG for some language and brief violence
Starring Paul Hogan, Linda Kozlowski, Jere Burns, Jonathan Banks, Aida Turturro, and Paul Rodriguez
The big challenge in Spring 2001 will be not how American TV contestants survive the Australian Outback, but how a simple Aussie survives the City of Angels. Wrestling crocodiles is nothing compared to swimming with sharks in Los Angeles. (Paramount Pictures)

What The Critics Said

San Francisco Chronicle Bob Graham
The no-sweat clunkiness of the detective plot becomes kind of charming.
Read Full Review >New York Daily News Jack Mathews
He (Hogan) and the other backers of the movie are betting that Dundee has been gone long enough to make him seem fresh, or -- like that old uncle -- at least welcome.
Read Full Review >Chicago Tribune John Petrakis
The film is surprisingly easy to sit through, digest and even enjoy. Why? A lot has to do with Hogan's well-documented charisma as a performer.
Chicago Reader Lisa Alspector
The running joke about coffee enemas will date this innocuous, crowd-pleasing adventure comedy.
Read Full Review >Mr. Showbiz Larry Terenzi
Wincer keeps the insubstantial story moving and the comedy light.
Miami Herald Curtis Morgan
Isn't a total crock.
Chicago Sun-Times Roger Ebert
It may not be brilliant, but who would you rather your kids took as a role model: Crocodile Dundee, David Spade or Tom Green?
Read Full Review >Entertainment Weekly Lisa Schwarzbaum
The punchlines are as tired as Hogan looks.
Read Full Review >Film.com Sean Means
Hogan's rough-and-ready charm remains intact, but it's not enough to salvage this instantly forgettable movie.
Read Full Review >New Times (L.A.) M.V. Moorhead
It would be hard to imagine a less exciting movie. Still, inoffensiveness can sometimes lead to success, at least initially, for a family film.
Read Full Review >The New York Times A.O. Scott
Nostalgia and comedy are run through a food processor until they become a flavorless paste.
Read Full Review >Austin Chronicle Kimberley Jones
There's something good-natured, even sweet about this well-meaning affair.
Read Full Review >LA Weekly Paul Malcolm
Despite the lack of zing in Hogan's frequently self-deprecating zingers, director Simon Wincer repeatedly lets scenes dribble on until an awkward silence engulfs everyone onscreen.
Read Full Review >USA Today Mike Clark
When movies have degraded to the point that Tyson is acting more than Quentin Tarantino is directing, maybe it is time for an industry shutdown, strike-induced or otherwise.
Read Full Review >Wall Street Journal Joe Morgenstern
A rube's-eye view of Hollywood, but the rube is weary, and those around him seem to be suffering from terminal torpor.
Washington Post Michael O'Sullivan
This latest, utterly gratuitous chapter in the saga of the wisecracking reptile hunter will add nothing to the ever-dimming reputation of the Subaru pitchman.
Read Full Review >TV Guide Maitland McDonagh
Hogan returns with what feels like a feature-length vanity project.
Read Full Review >Philadelphia Inquirer Carrie Rickey
I laughed once.
New York Post Lou Lumenick
The lackadaisical pace of CD3 is a disappointing surprise.
Boston Globe Jay Carr
A sequel whose time has come - and gone.
Los Angeles Times Jan Stuart
Where there was a modicum of charm to Mick Dundee's earliest exploits in New York City, the joke has withered as markedly as Hogan's face.

Andrew M. gave it a 7:
(7.5) Sure it's not outstanding, but it ain't that bad either. I believe this film has been quite hardly done by, especially by critics upon its release. It may not be as fresh and witty and original as the first (few ever are!) but surely it is a genuine improvement on the tacky second. There may be a deficiency of side-splitting moments, but I found myself chuckling aloud several times while watching this film. It just has this good feel and atmosphere to it throughout, one that permeates to the viewer. If you watch it expecting something equal to or funnier than the original, you won't get it, but if you want a light, fun, feel-good comedy that won't tax your brain, this is a winner!
Pat C. gave it a 3:
Hogan attempts to hang a spackling of his down-underisms in L.A. and call it art. It's innocent, mindless, and close to cute, but is never art. It's just a bare-bones plot with Hogan's mannerisms hung on display in case anyone's still interested.
Damian P. gave it a 6:
The humour is 1980's, but it still has it's moments. Funnier than I thought it would be.
Conrad R. gave it a 3:
Very light comedy, lost much of its charm from the first two...disappointing actors and wandering plot.
