Australian TV's Paul Hogan stars in this clever comic adventure, which blends the exotic joys of "Romancing the Stone" with the camp of "Tarzan's New York Adventure."
"Crocodile" Dundee succeeded where Tarzan the Ape Man and Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan, Lord of the Apes failed because it remembered not only to keep in the vein of the archetypal Weissmuller-O'Sullivan Tarzans, but also to remake their funniest outing (Tarzan's New York Adventure). 1 What the modern reboot industry doesn't get is that while audiences love being told the same stories over and over again, a brand name just as often represents the baggage of legacy as it does credibility.
