Quartorze ans après leur rencontre à New York, Mick "Crocodile" Dundee et Sue Charlton, sa charmante épouse, vivent toujours dans leur modeste maison au nord de l'Australie. Là, ils passent le plus clair de leur temps à éduquer leur fils, Mickey. Mais voilà que Sue vient de recevoir des nouvelles du bureau de son père depuis Los Angeles: le directeur d'un magazine est décédé dans d'étranges circonstances et Sue est demandée pour assurer la succession. Se sentant coupable de l'avoir retenue à l'autre bout du globe durant toutes ces années, Mick accepte de son plein gré de déménager la petite famille sur la côte ouest des États-Unis.

The beginning is good and properly Dundee-like, but as soon as the family starts moving out of the jungle, disaster looms. Unfortunately, in Los Angeles, a boring and predictable attempt to capture the old magic has emerged, but it lacks something like a plot. I like Hogan for his spontaneity, but unfortunately, this didn't turn out as expected.

I first saw this movie years ago at the Galaxie theater complex, the first time I heard Dolby Surround and, come to think of it, my first ever visit to a movie theater complex (several movies playing all at once! amazing!). The movie is no blockbuster, but I had a marvelous time watching it. No shortage of funny scenes and Dundee in L.A. works, also as Paul Hogan’s symbolic farewell to the silver screen.

But what the heck, I'll give the movie a little more points than another film would deserve. However, the Hogan-Kozlowski duo works well even in this third, at times slightly awkward film. Here, it's enough for me that my overall favorite characters are still here, and thanks to that, I had quite a good time. Some scenes are entertaining, that cannot be denied.
