Code 46 Reviews

Disappointing sci-fi that's too intense for kids.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 22, 2010

A luxurious sight to behold.

| Original Score: C+ | May 3, 2005

Amid the white walls and slick surfaces of this film, the characters seem more like lab rats than human beings.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 8, 2004

May be one of the most perfect cyberpunk films ever made.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Sep 19, 2004

Cinematography, production design and music are all top-notch, but the film largely succeeds because of the leads -- two fine actors at the top of their game.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 18, 2004

Intelligent and original.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Sep 14, 2004

More a collage than a movie.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Sep 10, 2004

Winterbottom's movie may be cold, but it's still pretty cool.

Full Review | Original Score: B- | Sep 3, 2004

Winterbottom and screenwriter Frank Cottrell Boyce sell the sci-fi but botch the interpersonal.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 26, 2004

A provocative, classy, low-key sci-fi tale that presents a world so within reach it's scary.

Full Review | Original Score: B+ | Aug 20, 2004

A tedious slog.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 20, 2004

A curious and mostly rewarding tale of a love affair in a world of genetic policing and travel restrictions.

| Original Score: B | Aug 19, 2004

A love story clothed in a science-fiction plot that fails to warm us with sentiment or dazzle us with cold logic.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 19, 2004

The disquieting and depressing sci-fi romance Code 46 is an interesting exercise, but the same can't always be said about it as a movie.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Aug 19, 2004

The atmosphere of the film is rich and meaningful while the story is frustratingly simple and superficial, almost an afterthought.

Full Review | Original Score: C+ | Aug 15, 2004

Robbins and Morton play star-crossed lovers, and they're among the most risible pair to grace the screen in quite some time.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 13, 2004

It's a distinct, fully realized and fascinating world; it's the story Winterbottom places in the foreground that's unfulfilling.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 13, 2004

Updates a classic premise -- the struggle for personal freedom -- by pairing it with ethical and moral quandaries.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Aug 13, 2004

With all this intelligence in front of and behind the cameras, why then does Code 46 play like a William Gibson novel with all the juicy bits removed?

| Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 13, 2004

I cannot say I understand the hows and whys of this future world, nor do I much care, since it's mostly a clever backdrop to a love affair that would easily teleport to many other genres.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Aug 13, 2004
