Too slow to constitute an adventure and has too few laughs to be a comedy.

The earlier one had novelty to keep it going, and this time the novelty has begun to wear thin, even if Mr. Hogan remains generally irresistible.

"'Crocodile' Dundee II" is about as laid-back a movie as you're ever likely to nap through. The actors take forever to recite their lines, and scenes unfold as if the filmmakers had rented the screen by the month.
Hal Hinson, Washington Post
Rotten
Doesn't follow so much as drag itself along like an alligator on dry land.
Desson Thomson, Washington Post
Rotten
The violence is still pleasantly paddling-pool stuff, but the disarming G'day factor has been pasteurised away.
