Amazon.com:
How long has it been since Paul Hogan's grizzled but charming alter ego appeared in a new movie? Well, long enough for the character, Crocodile Dundee, and his American companion, Sue Charleton (Hogan's real-life wife, Linda Kozlowski), to have raised a 9-year-old son, Mikey (Serge Cockburn), in the rough-and-tumble Australian outback that Dundee calls home. As with its two predecessors, however, Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles is no domestic comedy but a fish-out-of-water comic adventure, this time finding Dundee and his mate Jacko (Alec Wilson) relocated in balmy Southern California to help journalist Sue investigate a crooked studio executive. The jokes are predictable (L.A. traffic, Hollywood phonies, yoga) but fun, anyway, and there are some celebrity cameos to spice things up. Australian director Simon Wincer, who worked with Hogan on Lightning Jack, is very effective at keeping this light material briskly moving along even if he can't make it any more memorable than it has a right to be. All in all, this is a pleasant but forgettable experience, a far cry from the Capra-esque leanings of Hogan's first screen outing as Crocodile Dundee. --Tom Keogh

Rating:  - Third time unlucky
While great comedy should often appear effortless, that doesn't mean that the word should be taken literally, though on one level Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles can truly be said to be an effortless comedy. Absolutely no effort whatsoever has been made: it's in focus and the microphone never creeps into shot as uninteresting things happen in the most uninteresting way possible while the cast are given uninteresting things to say to bulk out the running time to the contractually agreed length, but ...

Rating: - Third Time, Not Quite the Charm
The first Crocodile Dundee movie was great fun. Crocodile Dundee 2 was almost as much fun. Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles was still fun, but less so. The producers explain that they came to Los Angeles because it is so unlike the Australian Outback. The thing I liked the least was the use of Paramount Studios playing itself. While the story made a good reason to be there, it always seems like a way to save money. The story picks up about ten years after the previous left off with Dundee and Sue not ... Read More
Rating:  - ~Judge for yourself~
I was so afraid of getting this DVD after reading the bad reviews some gave this movie. I decided to give it a shot as I adored the 1st & 2nd Dundee movies. I was not disappointed & felt is wasn't a waste of money as some have stated.
Maybe the bad reviews are because it ISN'T full of filthy language, violence, sexual situations & nudity that some think is needed to make a "good movie". I personally enjoy watching something that all my family can enjoy & laugh to. Sure ... Read More
Rating: - Mick as transplanted hick is used once too often and there is no strong villain to compensate
This movie is an existence proof that the same approach to comedy can be done once too often. In this third movie in the Crocodile Dundee genre, Mick Dundee is transplanted to Los Angeles, where he is once again trying to play the hick in the big city. However, that premise fails, the jokes are predictable and when they are not, they come across as dumb. The scene where Mick and his friend are ordering food at Wendy's is too long and very boring. There is another scene where some Hollywood people find out ... Read More
Rating: - Crocodile Dundee is back!
The opening scenes of the last of the Crocodile Dundee films is reminiscent of Jurassic Park as we see a crocodile's eye open on camera. Great shot. Paul Hogan returns as Mick Dundee after many years. The first movie was completed in 1986, the second in 1988, and this movie brings our hero back in 2001.
The thirteen years have taken their toll and both Paul Hogan, as well as the leading lady, Linda Kozlowski now look more mature. The chemistry is still there! At first, we see Mick attacked by a ... Read More
