With a low budget (almost entirely supplied by the fans), Code 8 does a nice job of feeling bigger than the money behind the camera. The Amell cousins have been wanting to do this movie for years, and even debuted the short film during the H&V Chicago Comic Con I attended back in 2016, and you can clearly see the passion, blood, sweat and tears behind the production. It's not overly original nor is it really trying to be. But if you're looking for a laid back action sci-fi, there are far worse choices than Code 8.
