- TriviaAlec Wilson appears in this film as 'Denning', a local Australian hired goon for the drug lords. He later appeared in the sequel Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles (2001) as 'Jacko', a long-time Australian friend of Mick.
- GoofsThe lens on Sue's ex-husband's camera changes between shots when he is taking pictures of the drug lord executing a captive. When seen head on it is a 500mm mirror lens and from the side it is a 50-300 zoom lens.
- Crazy creditsAt the end of the credits Dundee can be heard to say: "Are you ready to go home now" for a second time.
- Alternate versionsUK cinema and video versions were cut by a second to briefly shorten the scene in Colombia where Rico shoots a man in the head. The footage was restored for the 2003 DVD release.
Featured review
Whilst not as smooth, slick or satisfying as the box-office storming original, Paul Hogan's sequel is still crowd-pleasing entertainment and for those who felt the first film could have done with a tweak in the plotting department, Hogan seems to have moved up a gear here. The plot is in fact reverse to the original with Aussie Mick Dundee running into trouble when his journalist girlfriend Sue (Linda Koslowski) is kidnapped by an evil drugs baron. "I need to be someone where I can see them coming", the hero exclaims and that can only mean one thing - a return to the bush! Indeed, the second half of the film in Australia is notably more successful and inventive. Hogan's screenplay again features a bunch of memorable and exciting moments, whilst the delightful Peter Best score is also retained.
