Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
It's a first-class, stylish farce with a brisk pace and cool wit.
– Leonard Klady,
Variety,
26 Mar 2009
rotten:
An unruly orangutan plus an opulent hotel setting equals a natural disaster, or in this case a kids' movie.
– Derek Adams,

26 Jan 2006
rotten:
There isn't much of a story. The minimal plot exists exclusively to get the orangutan Dunston (played by "Sam") into as many odd, potentially-comic circumstances as possible.
