Yeah, I like Mik Dundee. Saw the first 2 flicks when they premiered on TV and enjoyed it. Surprised that a 3rd one was coming out so long afterwards, I curiously went to the cinema to watch it. I must admit, it sort of dragged on a bit for me. The Audience rarely laughed at all - in fact it was just about dead silence right through it (I think it was because the funniest jokes had already been seen on the trailer). Full marks to George Negus's son though, who plays Mick Dundees son in this film. He is well cast and is rather cute in the film, but despite the odd chucle every half hour, I feel the film has little to offer. The Plot? Well, Mick Dundees wife Sue gets a job in LA and they move there. Thats just about it. There is a brief subplot about stolen paintings that does not start until the last half hour, and it seems that was just put in as an afterthought to give the film some sort of storyline.

Not a bad try, Hoges, but the first 2 are miles above it. Croc 1 is funnier, maybe because it was original, I felt croc 2 had a good plot throughout, but croc 3 gets a bit tired. In fact, at times I thought the feature was just a 'directors cut' of the trailer!

I saw this as the sunday night movie and switched it on to see my favourite 'friend' jennifer aniston.

Picture perfect is perhaps more of a chick-flick (a romantic comedy), but I guess most guys would find it bareable. There is few times where you will laugh out loud, but you will find it as a cute, warm hearted, sunday night movie with a sweet ending. Good to watch for a quiet night in with your partner. The guys will wish that they were the lucky one that got to live in anistons apartment, and the girls will, in turn, like the look of the guys! (no relationship problems here, I hope!).

Aniston is cute in this (a pity that the intimate scenes dont show more of her - quite a tease in fact!), and there is a sweet message throughout. Not a bad romantic comedy... but after watching it, guys might want to put on a James Bond film to come back to down to earth!!

And the oscar for the most misleading title in the history of film-making goes to... (you guessed it!): Live Nude Girls!

If you see this film as the late night movie in the TV guide, it wont do you any harm if you have an early night. It is boring. An opening scene is fairly steamy (anyone who watches this film will know what I'm talking about), but you can switch it off there. The title of this film must of been invented just to get more people to watch this film. But the audience that dose end up watching it will be dissapointed. The story is a group of ladys (over 30) just talking about stuff. You hear the 'F' word mentioned a few times, catch some quick glimpses of small, wrinkled breasts, and, well, thats about it! Think of it as a very tame 'Sex and the City' episode.

Perhaps this is more a film for women in their 30's. A group of ladys talking about life and sex. But if that was the filmmakers target audience, why call it 'Live Nude Girls?'. That title gives a whole different audience to the film, and alot more critisism because of this. If they would of changed the title to, say '30-something Women', it could of attracted a whole new audience, and, perhaps, greater appreciation.

But, on the whole, whatever this film is called, it is of no interest to me.
