Critic Reviews

Code 46 has a noirish fatalism that renders it a close cousin to ''Blade Runner,'' but Winterbottom's film, shot mostly in the light, uses the theme of memory erasure to peer into the eternal sunshine of tragically altered minds.Full Review

Owen Gleiberman
Entertainment Weekly

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

Carla Meyer
San Francisco Chronicle

At times somber, and now and then dangerously close to self-important, Code 46 is nonetheless a smart, mature film that examines who and what we can be to each other, in a world full of invention and change. Full Review

Jim Fusilli
Wall Street Journal

You may soon forget the specifics of the plot, but you'll always remember the world it came from. Full Review

Desson Thomson
Washington Post

The problem with Code 46 is that the movie, filled with ideas and imagination, is murky in its rules and intentions. 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.Full Review
