	Movie Review - Dunston Checks In (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Dunston Checks In is a comedy about an orangutan, Dunston, who is forced by his owner, Mr.
		The orangutan, Dunston, is seen throughout the film doing a variety of tricks, such as jumping on furniture, cuddling in bed with Robert, doing somersaults, playing Frisbee, riding in a wheel chair, playing hide and seek, opening drawers, drinking, throwing things, dressing, etc. The orangutan was trained in pre-production for all of these behavioral stunts.
		For the portion of the scene where Dunston lands on the table and jumps to the ground, the child actor merely reached out his hand and helped the orangutan jump off the table onto a pad that was placed in the area where the orangutan landed.

	'Dunston Checks In' (PG)
		Although "Dunston" is essentially for the kids, anywhere from 5 on up, its humor will make older moviegoers (particularly parents) glad they checked into this movie too.
		Dunston is rather funny, especially when he breaks into a dowager's room and tries on all her personal effects (including a set of panties over his head).
		Dunston (Sam) and his malevolent master, Lord Rutledge (Rupert Everett), check in.

		Dunston and his evil owner, Rutledge (Rupert Everett), move into the five-star Majestic Hotel to steal hotel patrons' jewels.

		The bad news for the talented Dunston is that from now on he'll be typecast as an orangutan.

	Orangutan Foundation International - "Dunston Checks In" - Wildlife May Check Out. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Twentieth Century Fox's latest theatrical release, "Dunston Checks In," is a comedy featuring an orangutan who plays a variety of amusing roles.

		The film "Dunston Checks In" will be distributed in Southeast Asia beginning in March 1996.

	DUNSTON CHECKS IN - DVD
		Dunston Checks In believes a children's film to be defined by an indulgence in the worst habits of its performers: we have Everett in fright teeth, with a George Sanders affectation; Dunaway with her trademark rasp; and the monkey making fart noises and grinning broadly.
		Only poor Alexander elevates the material, with a kind of quiet dignity that doesn't quite survive a scene in which he stumbles around screeching with an orangutan on his head; the moments he shares with his boys are free of histrionics and false notes.
		Fox checks in with a spotty 1.85:1 anamorphic widescreen transfer of Dunston Checks In on one side of a DVD and a fullscreen pan-and-scan version on the other.

		This is a caper that the two have done before and as soon as Lord Rutledge is in his room, plans are afoot to fleece the diamonds and pearls of the hotel's guests.
		It rests with the boys to save the hotel, their dad's job and indeed Dunston himself from the clutches of the cruel Lord Rutledge who is soon to find out that evil has a new enemy and justice has a brand new fac............hang on.
		It is a humorous trailer that promotes the film as more of a mass appeal picture rather than the kid flick that it really is. The trailer features quite a bit more grain and also shows more film artefacts that are seen during the feature.

	FILM REVIEW -- Primate Picture Is Actually Funny / `Dunston' rises above ape jokes
		`Dunston Checks In'' is about all the zany stuff that happens when Dunston, an irrepressible orangutan, checks into a posh hotel.
		Actually the good thing about ``Dunston Checks In,'' which opens today, is that most of the things you expect in a monkey (or ape or primate) movie aren't here.
		As for Dunston, he's checked in as luggage, in the trunk of a bogus Lord Rutledge (Rupert Everett).

		Dunston Checks In An orangutan stars in this comedy as a trained robber for the notorious jewel thief, Lord Rutlidge.
		One day, this duo stays in one of the most prestigious hotels in the world where the orangutan meets a little boy who is wise to Lord Rutlidge's dastardly ways.
		This children's comedy is not bad, but there is possibly one too many sexual jokes to make Dunston Checks In family-perfect.

	Dunston Checks In DVD review - Time Out Film
		Dunston Checks In An unruly orang-utan plus an opulent hotel setting equals a natural disaster, or in this case a kids' movie.
		When the gangly one, Dunston, finally escapes Rutledge's clutches, the kids spend the rest of the film trying to conceal him.
		The film's admirably bereft of realistic violence, but then the makers blow it by slipping in a scene featuring Dunston innocently puffing on a cigarette.

	Times & Free Press Movie Reviews: "Dunston Checks In" (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		"Dunston Checks In" is a nifty surprise, pitting a smart ape named Sam against the whole of New York City.
		Dunaway is right at home as the coldhearted, ripe-for-humiliation boss of a swanky hotel where Dunston (Sam), a 5-year-old trained orangutan in the custody of a jewel thief (Rupert Everett), takes charge after a daring escape.
		The fans may miss his Pee-wee Herman character, but in the last few years Reubens has proved himself too versatile to confine himself to that one persona; this portrayal is particularly a keeper, made so by Reubens' insistence upon playing it without cracking a grin.
