Rating: PG

Commentary

This 'straight to disc' movie was a 'nothing new is out' pickup for myself after a very long day of work, and I needed to vegetate.  Well unfortunately you won't do much vegitating in this movie, BUT fortunately it really is very, very good!  Morgan Freeman and Antonio Bandares are both excellent actors, but I can't say I've ever heard of the director, writer, production house, or anything!  Typically I'd say this is a dangerous pick with all the money in two great actors and no script or directing to stand on, but I'd be wrong here.  This is an all-round great movie, go rent it now!  Note: there is some confusion, as the movie goes by either of two titles: 'Thick as Thieves' OR 'The Code'... I rented it from Blockbuster as 'The Code'.
