The Very Excellent Mr. Dundee makes one long for such comparatively stellar Hogan vehicles as Almost an Angel and Lightning Jack.

Paul Hogan has always been a buoyant, optimistic presence on our screens, so it's particularly sad that this particularly awful new movie brings us the newly octogenarian Hogan playing himself as a man mortally diminished in every way.

A lot of it comes across as weird, self-pitying flapdoodle.

Rated: 2/5

…Paul Hogan’s unusual willingness to be the butt of jokes about himself just about gets this oddball little film over the line…

There is something so good-natured and genial about the film, though, that it is near impossible to get too worked up about anything on display.

The Crocodile Dundee movie series is like a good meal that went rotten years ago, then retrieved from the trash, and then served up to people who never asked for this stinking mess in the first place ... Everything about this movie is a colossal mistake.

This was far better than what I was expecting going in. Great cameos by John Cleese and Chevy Chase. A fun, funny movie. A very pleasant surprise.

Some movies start out with a low ceiling. If they do everything perfectly, they'll still never be thought of as good (because they aren't). But they CAN be fun. This one was just fun.

Enjoyed the cast. Didn't enjoy watching the main character being misunderstood and treated unkindly.

A great film. Really catches the spirit of the Crocodile Dundee films but with the twist of it being a spoof of Paul Hogan’s life. A good laugh

I guess Americans don't quite get Aussie humour. It's a hoot...self deprecating humour...love it

Sometimes I feel like I'm from another universe, because I seen to like movies everyone else hates. this is one of those times. Mr Dundee is not a great movie by any stretch, but it's also not as bad as many claim. It has some funny moments, and it's enjoyable in its own way. Paul Hogan might be past his prime, but that does nothing to drag the movie down. Somehow it works in the movie's favour. Some of the gags don't quite land, but that also doesn't't run things. Overall, this is fun movie to pass the time with.
