Crocodile Dundee
A New York reporter (Linda Kozlowski) goes to Australia to meet eccentric croc hunter Mick Dundee (Paul Hogan) and invites him to the Big Apple in this Australian, culture-clash comedy classic. Hogan - who took inspiration from real-life bushman Rodney Ansell - won Best Actor at the Golden Globes in 1987 while the film itself was 1986's second highest grossing worldwide. It remains Australia's highest grossing film domestically.

Reviews & comments
Variety
pressProceedings are intermittently enlivened by John Meillon who is slyly humorous as Dundee’s manager and partner in a safari tour business.
Time Out
pressA canny construct is old Crocky, and a star-maker of a role for bronzed, wiry Hogan.
Roger Ebert
pressMany of the best scenes have the same whimsical quality as "The Gods Must Be Crazy," in which a character with a truly direct and open mind is able to see right through the strange conventions of civilization.
BBC
pressHogan's affable charm contrasted with the modern city lifestyle is still of comedic relevance.
