Summary: Great family fun!
Review: "Dunston Checks In" is great family fun. The plot involves a chimp who wreaks havoc in a five-star Manhattan Hotel and befriends the manager's young sons in the process. Warm-hearted, funny, and quite entertaining for ages 4 and up. The chimp and his antics are adorable and the acting is quite good, featuring performances by Jason Alexander (as the hotel manager), Faye Dunaway (as a Leona Helmsley-like hotel owner), Rupert Everett (as Dunston's owner), and Pee-Wee Herman.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Dunston = Brilliance
Review: Ah, the simple pleasures in life. Monkey movies are getting to be few and far between, with the bad ones overtaking the good. (Did anyone see Ed with Matt LeBlanc, yeah, i didn't think so) All those that feel that the genre of monkey movies is almost dead should see the brilliant Dunston Checks In. This film has it all: a monkey that wreaks havoc in a swanky hotel, and Jason Alexander really overacting. Jason, lighten up bud! you are in a monkey movie! The real pleasure comes in knowing that this film was an attempt to breath life into the monkey movie genre, a field that has been over looked by the Oscars for numerous years. The only problem with this film is that it is far too short. When will filmakers realize that monkey films should be epics, not 90 minute comedies. Give me an epic monkey movie over the same old Martin Lawrence and Eddie Murphy garbage anyday. Dunston, i think i speak for everyone when i say: I love you!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: It's good but stupid in some places.
Review: Dunstin Checks In is a very good movie but it's just stupid in some places. For example when there just happens to be two bowls of fruit on top of the toilet.

Review: Dunston Checks in was great for all. Kids will like it because there are a lot of laughs and the man who plays Pee-Wee Herman has a part in it. I thought it was simply hilarious.

Summary: This is a wonderful movie for children and adults too!!!
Review: I have a 3 year old daughter who absolutely LOVES this movie. She has watched it so many times that the reason I came on this web site was to purchase another one because she wore out the last one. If you have any children between the ages of 2 and 10 and especially love to watch animals, this is the movie for them!!! I have to admit, I have caught myself putting off doing my dishes and other household chores to sit down with my daughter and watch it with her. My daughter and I have talked on numerous occassions throughout the movie about the funny things Dunston does during the movie and there are times you will find yourself laughing out loud because Dunston and the boy (sorry, I forgot his real name but his name is Kyle in the movie) make such a good comical team. It is also very touching and not sad (we are the type of people who hate to watch movies that are sad at the end or an animal dies). If my daughter can keep her eyes glued to this movie, anyone's child will do the same and keep asking for "MORE"!!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good
Review: I like this movie very much. My favorite thing in the whole movie is Paul Reubens as Buck LaFarge, the animal control man. It is a childrens movie, but overall well acted and funny. Jason Alexander, Faye Dunnaway, and Rupert Everet are also very good.
