Save your money for something good and enjoyable

Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

Horrible, fascist and poorly acted

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Yes, I agree with btkfan! When there were plenty of very awful comedies, such as Home Alone, Hot Shots, etc. I remember I started watching that movie, with no expectation at all, but in the end it resulted in a silly nice comedy, with sympathetic Paul Hogan, just to make you look back, at his own character in the better Crocodile Dundee.

Paul Hogan is just a one trick pony. He can only play Mick Dundee and that's just about it. He decided to play Mick Dundee as an outlaw and it didn't work. It's just really, really, really boring and unfunny. I can't think of one joke that made me laugh. Maybe Aussie humour and American humour don't mix.Cuba Gooding Jr as a mute was the only good thing about it. I really liked his character and this was the beginning of Cuba's career. Sadly he did suffer from the dreaded Oscar curse and did terrible movies. That's why being an movie star sucks, folks.Paul did do Flipper (which I haven't seen in ages) and later Croc Dundee in LA (which was bad, but not as bad as this flick).

It could have been a horrible vanity project by Paul Hogan, but it turned out to be an inoffensive comedy. Not particulary funny or clever, but it passed the time. Cuba Gooding Jr was very good considering he wasn't allow to talk at all. Even Paul Hogan was didn't ham it up too much.It isn't a great western or a great comedy but it isn't bad and, unless you pay to see it, may even leave you with a half-amused little smile.

This was possibly THE WORST film I have ever seen.Lightning Jack was the first film that I have been tempted to walk out of... and I work at a cinema, so I was only wasting time - not money.Unfortunately my companion and I were convinced that there must be at least one funny scene in the movie, so we stayed until the very end, only to be disappointed. Paul Hogan has made some shockers in his time, but this one takes the cake!Take my advice and AVOID THIS MOVIE AT ALL COSTS!!!
