Crocodile Dundee

‘That’s not a knife. That's a knife!’

Crocodile Dundee remains the most commercially successful Australian film ever made, with Paul Hogan’s iconic Mick Dundee at the heart of the film. It opened in Australian cinemas on 24 April 1986 and has gone on to be one of the most successful non-Hollywood films of all time. It also spawned two sequels: Crocodile Dundee II (1988) and Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles (2001).
