This haiku movie review, Crocodile Dundee, uses a 5-7-5 format and adds a uni-rhyme scheme while reducing the gist of the Australian movie to its essentials. Neat.

Good one and congratulation on the win. I just watched this again recently and loved his simplistic take on every day situations. G'day, judester

You have made excellent use of all of your syllables in this descriptive commentary on that wildly popular movie. I barely remember watching it.
Yes, he got his woman on-screen and off. I think he left his wife for Kozlowski (spelling?).

He left a long marriage for his leading lady in the film, tsk tsk - how often that happens!

I think this is a good entry for the 5-7-5 Movie Review contest.
You've outlined the Crocodile Dundee movie very well in so few words.
Nicely done and good luck to you with the contest.

Good on ya' cobber. We aren't all like him. We are most civilised and he was what we call a 'yobbo'. He's still married to that sheila. In its heyday, it was a funny movie. I hope the US doesn't think we act like Dundee!

Geez mate, those yanks think we all run round wrestlin' crocs and talkin' weird.

I like your film choice. The description in Haiku form is very clever while also perfectly describing the plot. The picture is an excellent choice to go with the words.

Hello mystery writer. This is a really good poem and I like the fact that you added rhyme to your 5-7-5. I stopped writing that style because everyone told me I always broke the rules. Content is more important than style. You did a great job telling your story in rhyme.

Thanks for your review - I was really pleased this poem won the contest!
Comment from Mark D. R.
I so enjoyed that movie. And now I can enjoy your 5-7-5 review of the same.
Did like your rhyming.
NY has seen it all. So the shock of his visit to the city was not so unusual (-; Dundee apparently went with the flow and didn't find any crocs in the sewers. LOL
