This is the first, and best, of the tales about the Australian outback's living legend, who can wrestle crocodiles with his bare hands and subdue ladies with his naked charisma. Paul Hogan took his lager-commercial he-man into the big time with this New York-set “fish out of water” tale, and the result is as agreeable as if it were Tarzan himself coping in the concrete jungle.
