Crocodile Dundee 2

The second time's the charm when Aussie actor Paul Hogan returns in this hit sequel Crocodile Dundee II. Paramount has put forth well-placed effort into making this transfer look decent, if a bit dated. While there are some instances of imperfections during the film (including grain and dirt), overall the picture quality is very good with colors bright and black levels looking solid. Audio is presented in Dolby Digital 5.1 and sounds much better than the first film's DVD soundtrack. Certainly the directional effects are not huge or lavish, but they do provide a nice range for the listener. All aspects of the soundtrack are clear and concise without any heavy distortion. Also included on this track is a Dolby Digital 2.0 Surround track in English and French, as well as English captions. Oddly enough, Crocodile Dundee II includes more extra features than its predecessor. Sporting an anamorphic widescreen theatrical trailer, Crocodile Dundee II also includes a "behind-the-scenes" featurette that is about six minutes long. Though the featurette is nothing spectacular, it's well worth having on this disc, which is a passable edition in the Crocodile Dundee series.
