4/5
Arrow's stunt coordinator, James Bamford, directed "Code of Silence," and it shows. The episode's stunts were creative and daring. Go to Full Review Chancellor Agard Entertainment Weekly 07/30/2018
"Code of Silence" questions the value of secret keeping, and while the answer is rather frustrating, that doesn't stop the well-directed episode from being quite fun and pretty enjoyable. Go to Full Review Alasdair Wilkins AV Club 07/27/2018

There's a real fine line between recognizing nuance and just straight-up making excuses. "Code Of Silence" too often finds itself on the wrong side of that line, as it tries to sort through just what to do with Oliver's secret son. Go to Full Review Constance Gibbs The Nerds of Color 04/07/2020
Nearly everyone in this episode suffers from naive notions that they really should be over by now. Go to Full Review Sydney Bucksbaum Nerdist 08/04/2018
One of the most entertaining episodes of Arrow yet this season. From all the smaller moments and quotes... to all the big action scenes and stunts, this hour was fantastic. Go to Full Review Evan Griffin The Young Folks 08/02/2018
8/10
At this rate, I really hope that the final confrontation between Damien Darhk and Oliver in this season is a bounty of quippy bad jokes, because the two characters happen excel at this pastime. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
