Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Intrigued by the near-death experience of the rugged hunter, Michael J. "Crocodile" Dundee, after a close encounter with a monstrous saltwater crocodile, the New York City reporter, Sue Charlton, travels to Australia, to meet the legend in person. There, in the dusty hamlet of Walkabout Creek and the formidable outback, dangerous situations and unforeseen romantic complications await; however, Sue already knows that nothing compares to the urban jungle of the great Big Apple. So, like a fish out of water, Mick leaves Australia for the first time in his life for Manhattan's concrete maze, where he comes face-to-face with the complexities of modern life. But, will the unpretentious bushman ever adapt to the big city? Written by Nick Riganas |

Did You Know?
| Trivia | The Sydney Harbour Bridge is shown in the beginning of the movie from the hotel window while Sue is on the phone to New York. Paul Hogan helped paint this bridge before he started his life as an actor and was said to have kept his co-workers laughing a good bit of the time. See more » |
| Goofs | When Sue goes down to the water to fill her canteen, the reptile that lunges forward is not a crocodile, but a large American alligator, it's evident by the roundness in the snout and the placement of the teeth when it's mouth is closed. See more » |

| Quotes |
Teenage Mugger:
[Dundee and Sue are approached by a black youth stepping out from the shadows, followed by some others]
You got a light, buddy? Michael J. "Crocodile" Dundee: Yeah, sure kid. [reaches for lighter] Teenage Mugger: [flicks open switchblade] And your wallet! Sue Charlton: [guardedly] Mick, give him your wallet. Michael J. "Crocodile" Dundee: [amused] What for? Sue Charlton: [cautiously] He's got a knife. Michael J. "Crocodile" Dundee: [chuckles] That's not a knife. [he pulls out a large bowie knife] Michael J. "Crocodile" Dundee: THAT's a knife. [Dundee slashes the teen mugger's jacket and maintains eyeball to eyeball stare] Teenage Mugger: Shit! [he and his friends run off] Michael J. "Crocodile" Dundee: [to Sue] Just kids having fun. You all right? Sue Charlton: [relieved] I'm always all right when I'm with you, Dundee. God, that sounds corny. Why do always make me feel like Jane in a Tarzan comic? See more » |
