VIDEO \u2013 4.0\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Code 46<\/em><\/strong> debuts on Blu-ray courtesy of Olive Films, presented in the film\u2019s original 2.35 widescreen aspect ratio and a 1080p high-definition transfer. The picture quality actually is moderately impressive showing off sharp detail and colors appear to be in keeping with the film\u2019s futuristic and thriller tone with a mixture of bright colors and darker elements in other scenes. I didn\u2019t notice any substantial ailments like dust marks and scratches so it appears to be a well maintained transfer.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

AUDIO \u2013 3.75\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

The disc comes with a heavy but satisfactory DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0 track and for a movie like this, in spite of having thriller-centric scenes, is mostly dialogue and\/or a score, by The Free Association (which apparently included composer David Holmes), to set a bleak future. Since the channels are limited, it\u2019s nothing I\u2019d call robust yet it still more than sufficient for a movie such as this.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

OVERALL \u2013 3.0\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Overall, one could call Code 46<\/em><\/strong> the Minority Report<\/em> (which also co-starred Samantha Morton) on a stricter budget but more compact story and although I probably give the edge to MR<\/em> mainly due to the direction from Spielberg, this is still a nice little future thriller featuring great performances by Tim Robbins and Samantha Morton. The Blu-ray released by Olive is rather basic with only a trailer but the video and audio transfers are at least above average.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
