Makes you wish you had partial amnesia too.

Code Name: The Cleaner isn't the worse comedy ever made; it probably won't even be the worst of 2007. For the most part it's simply boring, with fleeting patches of ineptness.

| Original Score: 4/10 | Mar 18, 2011

The Entertainer conjures up some charm, and DeRay Davis provides pyrotechnics as a janitor/wanna-be rapper, but like the teddy-clad bubble-bath square-off between Liu and Sheridan, it's just not enough.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Nov 20, 2008

Depressingly laugh-free comedy that's so irredeemably awful that you'll wonder why Martin Lawrence isn't in it.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Dec 27, 2007

The one laugh is in the production notes, where director Les Mayfield claims this is a comic take on the Jason Bourne movies. As if.

| Dec 7, 2007

If you like comedies but hate going to the trouble of actually laughing, then this might just be the movie you've been waiting for.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Dec 7, 2007

Although comprised of lowest-common denominator gags, it's an oddly hard-to-follow affair, with good and bad FBI agents popping up everywhere and the plot only revealing itself in fits and starts.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Dec 7, 2007

The sooner Code Name... gets flushed out of cinemas, the better.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Dec 7, 2007

where the number-one superguy used to solve crazy mix-ups like this in 15 minutes, The Cleaner takes a laboured, exposition-larded hour and a half.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 7, 2007

Do anything: rob a petrol station, superglue your eyelids together, chew on broken glass, just avoid at all costs.

| Original Score: 1/6 | Dec 7, 2007

Code Name: The Cleaner is one of the year's big stinkers.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 7, 2007

A prime candidate for Worst Movie Of 2007.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Dec 7, 2007

too clumsy to be the sophisticated parody of memory-loss films it might have been, too bland for its action sequences to kick any ass, too dumbed-down to make much out of the clashes of race, class and gender at the heart of its fish-out-of-water comedy

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Dec 7, 2007

If Cedric the Entertainer's constant mugging for the camera is not your cup of tea, and a derivative plot, relatively humorless script, and mundane directing aren't up your alley, then best to clean Code Name: The Cleaner off your must-see list right now.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Jun 25, 2007

...a rather silly and humorless affair that pretty much wastes Cedric's comic talents.

| Original Score: 4/10 | Apr 24, 2007

Code Name: The Minstrel Coon Show!

| Original Score: 0/4 | Apr 19, 2007

The kind of comedy that you'll forget mere moments after seeing.

Full Review | Mar 24, 2007

There's some pretty good improvised shtick from DeRay Davis as a wacky janitor. But these are small pleasures in a movie that never really generates any serious laughs.

| Mar 7, 2007

Beyond such amateurishly ill-constructed plot points, what should be a fast-moving film is slow and repetitious.
