- 40The New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisThe New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisUnable to shape these events into a dramatic structure, the director, Camilo Vila, resorts to a meandering tale of random indignities suffered by a lead so bland he comes across less as principled than as stupendously naïve.
- 30Los Angeles TimesRobert AbeleLos Angeles TimesRobert AbeleThe trouble is that it's hard to care about poor Wayne when he seems so empty-headed and naïve - civic unrest in Peru on the eve of its first democratic elections in 1980 is the setting - and when the movie itself seems so unfocused.
- 30Village VoiceNick PinkertonVillage VoiceNick PinkertonOn every level this production - from Robinson's callow performance to Vila's hackneyed handheld camerawork, punching beats in the stead of the actors - remains firmly on the level of the obvious.
