Critic Reviews for The Very Excellent Mr. Dundee

The Very Excellent Mr. Dundee makes one long for such comparatively stellar Hogan vehicles as Almost an Angel and Lightning Jack.

Frank Scheck
Hollywood Reporter
Paul Hogan has always been a buoyant, optimistic presence on our screens, so it's particularly sad that this particularly awful new movie brings us the newly octogenarian Hogan playing himself as a man mortally diminished in every way.

Brad Newsome
Sydney Morning Herald
A lot of it comes across as weird, self-pitying flapdoodle.

July 17, 2020 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

Luke Buckmaster
Guardian
Hogan tries to remain unruffled, but appears bemused and somewhat confused as his world crumbles... The satire is as labored as his nonchalance.

July 16, 2020 | Rating: 2.5/5 | Full Review…

Paul Byrnes
Sydney Morning Herald
It's just a cringe-inducing film that one wonders why it was made.

A sad, disappointing self-parody...

Susan Granger
SSG Syndicate
Unnecessary comedy sequel has some language, innuendo.

December 17, 2020 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

Brian Costello
Common Sense Media
The Very Excellent Mr. Dundee couldn't make us laugh even if it was holding us at knifepoint.

John Serba
Decider
For fans who ask for nothing more than something upbeat and friendly, it should satisfy, even if it isn't long remembered.

December 12, 2020 | Rating: 2.5/5 | Full Review…

Daniel M. Kimmel
North Shore Movies
Perhaps the saddest thing about "The Very Excellent Mr. Dundee" is that Paul Hogan has still got it even in his 80s. His deadpan, nothing phases me attitude almost makes this ludicrous project work.

Jonathan W. Hickman
The Newnan Times-Herald
So witless and creatively dodgy that not only does it leave you with no particular urge to see Hogan on the screen again in the future, it will cause you to wonder what you ever saw in him in the first place.

December 11, 2020 | Rating: 1/5 | Full Review…

Peter Sobczynski
eFilmCritic.com
It takes a surprisingly effective, self-aware approach to legacyquels by basically arguing that it doesn't need to exist and there's a dozen more reasons why it won't work, even if Hogan and a team of creative geniuses can figure out a reason to try.
