Critics Consensus

Retelling its predecessor's same joke with diminishing returns, Crocodile Dundee II sees the franchise's enjoyability go down under.

Variety Staff Variety Too slow to constitute an adventure and has too few laughs to be a comedy. Mar 26, 2009 Full Review Time Out The violence is still pleasantly paddling-pool stuff, but the disarming G'day factor has been pasteurised away. Feb 9, 2006 Full Review Nell Minow Movie Mom Stick with the first one. Rated: 2/5 Jun 20, 2003 Full Review Rene Jordan El Nuevo Herald (Miami) Like a vengeful prize to such torture, I find personal satisfaction in saying that this crocodile is only useful for make shoes, and wallets. [Full review in Spanish] Jun 27, 2022 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy Much of the charm of Crocodile Dundee is from its lack of an overly aggressive plot; it unfolds at its own rhythm and refuses to insert any dramatic contrivances that would go against its very nature. Alas, that's not the case with Crocodile Dundee II. Rated: 2/4 Oct 2, 2021 Full Review Mike Massie Gone With The Twins Designed just to give Dundee a few more opportunities for humorous, heroic problem-solving rather than to create a worthwhile plot for the Australian's unique talents. Rated: 4/10 Aug 31, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Ethan G Nothing more than an embarrassing rehash. Wasted talent, poor humour. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/18/24 Full Review alan g The first one was fun but this bomb should never have been made. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/08/24 Full Review Joel H Crocodile Dundee came out of nowhere with the first movie and surprised audiences all over the world. When Crocodile Dundee II came out, viewers knew what to expect and what we got wasn’t quite as good. This is still an entertaining movie, especially in the second half when they arrive in Australia. But this feels more like an action/adventure film than a comedy, which is a little disappointing. Paul Hogan is still very likeable as Mick Dundee, though, and it’s his subdued charisma that really props up this sequel. Maybe it’s just because I used to watch it as a kid, but I like Crocodile Dundee II. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/30/24 Full Review Forged S So, while this ISN'T a remake, it's a sequel, this is a prime example of Hollywood not understanding a character or property. Where the first movie is more or less a rom com, about a neglected, rejected fish-out-of-water character, the sequel finds its titular character taking on the role of action star (a fact addressed in the third movie during a meta-analysis of Hollywood and the need to change character motivations). Overall, this movie feels wildly out of place, especially during the first half, that feels uninspired, forced and poorly conceived. It isn't until the second half of the movie, when it returns to what made the first movie so great, that the sequel actually has any entertainment value. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/10/24 Full Review Carla M This one is my favorite out of the 3 Crocodile Dundee movies. However, I do like them all. I'm still watching and enjoying this movie! They're just fun, nostalgic movies that I have enjoyed watching with friends and family on many occasions. Also, got the DVD! 😀 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/14/23 Full Review Bill T Oddly more entertaining from the first time I saw it.. I believe I saw it in the theater? CDII takes up where the 1st one left off, Mick (Dundee) and his lady are living the good life in NY, when an ex-bf of her's gets assassinated because of photos he took of his killers doing a drug deal, they begin looking for the film that has those pictures.. Well wouldnt you know it, those pics were mailed to NYC! So CD and GF need to hide out and they go back to Australia. Story up to this point is fun, but when it gets to Australia, it definitely slows down a lot of notches when CD takes on the drug lords in the outback. It just seemed a little TOO slow and methodical. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews
