I love it. Paul Hogan is great as Crocodile Dundee in a perfect adventure comedy that I always enjoy watching. Also, the year of release is the same as mine :).

A breezy comedy well deserving of its enormous popularity. The mingling of two completely different cultures may be more than a tired premise, but it can still offer a thousand new avenues for a script. Everything is carried by the likeable character of Paul Hogan, who’s perfectly spontaneous as he warmly greets all passers-by and endearingly blunt as he shouts from a hotel room window asking what the bidet is for. The beautifully shot happy ending and the gorgeous setting of Australia just underline everything and makes this romantic tale quite possibly the funniest Australian film ever (after Finding Nemo, of course...). :D 80%

There's a lot of nostalgia in it, really a lot of nostalgia. But still, I think it's a good movie, not only because the actors fit perfectly (so much so that Paul and Linda got married in 1990, only to unfortunately divorce in 2014), but also because it's pleasantly gritty, manly, and yet romantic enough to appeal to women too.
