Synopsis
Dunston Checks In (1996) is a family comedy you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Ken Kwapis. Jason Alexander plays the harried hotel manager trying to hold a five-star inspection together, while Faye Dunaway and Rupert Everett play the villains — and an orangutan named Dunston steals every scene he's in, literally and figuratively.
Lord Radcliffe checks into the Majestic with an air of old money and a trained primate. The plan: Dunston picks pockets and empties hotel rooms while his owner plays aristocrat. It works smoothly until Dunston decides he's done with the job, slips his leash, and falls in with the manager's two sons. The hotel inspection turns into something closer to a demolition derby.
Sam the Orangutan, who plays Dunston, gives one of the most genuinely funny physical comedy performances the genre had in the 1990s — the film basically builds its timing around him. Good-natured, fast-moving, and easy on everyone. Watch Dunston Checks In (1996) online on iFILM.
