Better Than Expected
Lots of humor at Paul's expense, cool cameos and many of the jokes are well-written and effective. I liked it. John Cleese is especially hilarious.
loved the movie
This is not academy award material, but it was a lot of laughs. mr dundee was like a deer in the headlights kind of role. bad things kept happening to him despite the fact he kept trying to do the right thing. meanwhile the reporters kept coming down on him hard in one wild scene after another. watch it for the laughs and don't get to serious.
Pretty funny movie
Okay, Hoges is 80 now so those expecting him to be as funny in his heyday is expecting too much.
That being said, this movie is still very funny because he plays the situations he's placed in well and, frankly, he's still got it in my opinion.
Whoever wrote and directed this deserve praise too.
Some probably don't like that the current politics is played for laughs but its hardly something that hasn't been done before, the random person the goofball stuffing up and being falsely accused, and becoming a social pariah.
I laughed a lot so that's the main thing.
I Tapped out after 30 minutes
I didn't have high hopes for this and at the time, there were no ratings or reviews on IMDB, so I though I'd check it out.
Paul Hogan plays Paul Hogan trying to resurrect his acting career. I love Hoges, but nothing even remotely amusing had happened a third of the way through this 90 minute film. Don't let the impressive cameos fool you. This is atrocious. I can't even see who this is aimed at. Kids? Adults looking for a dose of 80s nostalgia?
Please don't even bother with this.

Typical Aussies Self Depreciating Humour
I don't know why the ratings on IMDM are so low. I though it was a great movie. Typical self depreciating humour. We don't take ourselves too seriously and we like to take the piss out of ourselves and everyone else and this was evident in this movie with some great cameo's. I really enjoyed it. Anyone GenX or older I think will have a few good laughs. I know I did . Loved it! On ya Hoges

- TriviaThis movie, as reported by 'The Daily Mail', ''...comes after a Tourism Australia's hilarious faux movie trailer aired during the US Super Bowl back in 2018. The big budget advert, which cost $36 million, took the form of a fake movie trailer for a new Dundee film called 'Dundee: The Son of a Legend Returns Home' [2018].''
- GoofsAustralia's Honours system no longer includes knighthoods. As an Australian citizen, Paul Hogan could not be knighted by the Queen.
- Crazy creditsThe main credits appear in both the beginning and end, and the title only appears at the end.
