'Infectiously charming' classic movie fans insist is 'underrated' now streaming
A “joyful” comedy film that is the “definition of a cheesy 1980s movie” is now ready to watch.
An “infectiously charming” film is now streaming, boasting high praise from critics and viewers alike.
Comedy-adventure film Crocodile Dundee sees a reporter travel to Australia to interview an eccentric crocodile poacher but when he rescues her from an attack, she invites him to go back with her to New York City.
Crocodile Dundee himself is portrayed by Australian star Paul Hogan who won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a Motion Picture Musical or Comedy for the memorable film.
He is joined by actress Linda Kozlowski as reporter Sue Charlton, John Meillon as Walter Reilly and actor and professional wrestler Steve Rackman as Donk.
Now, almost 40 years after its initial release, Crocodile Dundee and its sequel is ready to stream on Paramount+.
The films have proved to be a hit with movie buffs over the years with Crocodile Dundee scoring an impressive 89% on Rotten Tomatoes.
Taking to the review section, someone praised: “A proficient blend of comedy, romance, and thrills that stays consistent from beginning to end.”
Another agreed: “Crocodile Dundee demonstrates that Australians have a talent for comedy as well.
“It's a joyful movie, full of the wonder of vintage Frank Capra, with an ingenuous hero plunked down in the big, bad city.”
A third labelled it as an “underrated funny comedy”, as a fellow fan remarked: “Infectiously easygoing charm and a leading man in the role he was born to play help Crocodile Dundee make the most of its familiar fish-out-of-water premise.”
To get access to the Crocodile Dundee franchise, fans will need a Paramount+ subscription, with the option of a seven-day free trial.
It then costs £4.99 per month for the Paramount+ basic plan with ads, followed by the standard ad-free plan priced at £7.99.
There is also the option of a premium plan priced at £10.99 per month.
But the Paramount+ basic plan is also often available at no extra cost for those with a Sky Cinema subscription.
Crocodile Dundee 1 and 2 are available to watch on Paramount+
