Hogan returns in 3rd 'Crocodile Dundee' movie
|
PAUL HOGAN, who captured movie fans' hearts as the friendly hunter in 1986's ''Crocodile Dundee'', is at it again with a third ``Dundee'' movie, but for this one, tough guy Hogan seems a tad bit tired.
The new movie, ``Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles'', opens around the country on April 20, and fans who remember how Mick Dundee (Hogan) wielded his big crocodile hunter's knife around the mean streets of New York will be glad to note that the knife has returned, as big as ever.
Hogan, now 60, still looks the part of a skilful crocodile hunter. He appears just as fit and trim in this new movie as he did in the first two, his face only a bit more weathered than it has ever looked as the rough-hewn hunter.
For the first five years after ``Dundee II'', Hogan said he would ``never'' make another. As time passed, however, animation companies kept coming to him saying kids were bananas for Mick Dundee on home video and on TV repeats, which led Hogan to think he might make another one.
Critics will likely not like ``Dundee III'' because it does not break any new ground, but that doesn't necessarily bother Hogan.
``It's a funny, feel-good movie. There's no, sort of, Pulitzer Prize for the plot. There's nothing intricate in it,'' he said. ``It's just go along, and go for a ride and look at the world through the eyes of Mick Dundee for an hour or so. And you know, that's what the others were about, too.''(SD-Agencies)
