Critics were largely disappointed, often describing the film as "toothless" or a "trainwreck".
The Very Excellent Mr. Dundee (2020) is a meta-comedy that stars as a fictionalized version of himself . Instead of a traditional Crocodile Dundee sequel, the film follows Hogan in Los Angeles as he navigates a series of social mishaps and public relations disasters just weeks before he is set to be knighted by the Queen. Key Plot and Themes
: The film features numerous stars playing exaggerated versions of themselves, including John Cleese (as a wacky Uber driver), Chevy Chase , Olivia Newton-John , and Wayne Knight . Critical Reception
: The humor stems from Hogan being in the "wrong place at the wrong time," such as accidentally throwing a snake at a bystander or being falsely accused of child abuse after an encounter with rowdy kids.
: Directed by Dean Murphy, a frequent collaborator of Hogan.
: Filming took place in Australia, Los Angeles, and Vancouver.
: Some audience members found it to be a harmless, lighthearted "pleasant way to spend an hour and a half," appreciating Hogan’s willing self-deprecation. Production and Release
