Crocodile Dundee [Region 2] (English audio. English subtitles)

This video is a gift for my son who because of mental health issues doesn’t go out.

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', rather than showing the unedited version at a sensible time in the evening. I've caught this film on TV about four times and on each occasion it was in a poorly cut version. 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 was lucky enough to see this film at the cinema, knowing no more about it at the time, than that it was supposed to be a good comedy. Well it turned out to be a very good comedy indeed. The film offers so much more than just some very funny moments though. Everyone I know who saw it at the time loved it and it was no surprise that it became one of the years biggest hits. It is strong in all areas, well written and directed with good chemistry between the leading actors and an excellent cast who all perform their parts to perfection. Hogan stands out of course and had the difficult task of throwing off the tag 'Australia's answer to Benny Hill' something he manages effortlessly.It's difficult to realise now how much of a 'breath of fresh air' it was at the time, since Hollywood immediately co-opted (or stole) so much of the style and approach of the film for its own projects in the following years.The film quite naturally, divides into two parts. The first in Australia, has a surprising depth to it and a real feel for the place(the Outback)and its people and of course you get to know the characters. The second part of the film is set in New York and provides the bulk of the humour but still remains character focused and never descends into pointless gag-making.It manages to be hilariously funny one moment and sweetly touching the next. Put simply the film is a delight and a joy to watch and can be seen many times without tiring of it.

Classic film great to watch . Worth buying

Bought this for my husband and we both love watching this film. It is simply one of those films that you can watch over and over and never get fed up with. Paul Hogan is just brilliant and with the fantastic scenery of Australia, what more could you want in a film? Bought 1, 2 and 3 and they are all never far away from our kitchen dvd - normally just watch them again and again! Some really corny bits, but brilliant too!

Oldy but a goody

So happy with my purchase, DVD works very well (on ps4/main source for playing DVDs ) love the film as it's one of my favourites and lucky to get the DVD when I did as I couldn't find it anywhere else

A classic comedy about an Australian hunter who leaves the wilderness for New York City. Good fun.

finally, i've got all three of these films. thanks amazon. i dare anyone to sit down and watch all 3 of these and not get pleasure from them. even if you don't laugh your head off, they will at least bring a smile to your face and these days, that's something that we could all do with more often.
