Rating: 3/5 --
Often funny premise, but comedy cast makes it work.

Rating: 3/5 --
No Time After Time or Star Trek 6, but you gotta love Candy.
New Times
Promising premise and opening shortly descend into unduly protracted tedium.

Variety
A blasé Hanks redeems this string of sexist, racist, comic clichés with winning charm. It's funny.

...a silly, thoroughly unmemorable comedy...

Reel Film Reviews
Rating: 1/5 --
As a satire on the 1960s, the film, directed by Nicholas Meyer, is more sour than silly.
Spirituality and Practice
Rating: 3/5 --
One of the better films from Hanks' minor-league, pre-"Big" career.
Capital Times (Madison, WI)
Product Description:
In a desperate attempt to escape the bookies to whom he owes a lot of money, a playboy enlists in the Peace Corps and is sent on a mission to Thailand. Far from being an altruist, however, this capitalist is soon turning a profit and starts improving the desperate conditions around him, much to the chagrin of the idealists who volunteered. An underrated farce.
