BAFTA-winning filmmaker Michael Winterbottom (The Trip) tells the near-future love story of a passport forger (Samantha Morton) and a family man (Tim Robbins) who cannot help their romantic desires for each other, despite living in a world ruled by a totalitarian government. Considered to be a sci-fi take on 1945 classic Brief Encounter.

An intriguing but only partly successful co-mingling of film noir and sci-fi. The main difficulty is a lack of chemistry between lead actors Tim Robbins and Samantha Morton. Resulting business looks to be soft initially, with ancillary more robust.

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.
